I wanted a tiny trainer from the moment I saw it first, so as soon as I saw it available I ordered one of those Frames. Now the TT sadly Isn't made for carrying an HD system, so a bit of Improvising is necessary.
In the course of my build I remixed a few parts to make my build work, this is the collection of those parts.
I've printed all parts except the motor risers in TPU (you can print the risers in TPU as well, thus soft mount your motors if you want to (and I might just do that at some point), I was just too lazy to switch filament when I printed them).
There is a few things you'll have to do and you'll need that these printed parts don't take care of, such as cutting the canopy so the caddx vista unit fits, or extending at least the front standoffs (or replacing them with taller ones).
I also cut a whole to fit the antenna through the lipstick hole, and I cut parts of the plastic around the Vista-Antenna-Stem to get the wire part long enough for it to connect (also stress relieved it by ziptying to one of the back standoffs)
The Parts are designed to work with the hardware I'm using, and also there is no guarantees they work for you, use at your own risk.
I'm using:
BetaFPV's AIO (V2)
R9MM RX
Caddx Nebula (with vista air unit)
BetaFPV 1404 3800 Motors
This Part basically goes at the bottom of your stack and is to form an insulation layer between your AIO board and the carbon of the frame, to prevent shorts. This is mostly because the soft-mount grommets that came with the board alone aren't thick/hard enough to ensure the board won't touch the frame.
This is a heavily cut down version of dengors vista adapter
When looking how others had fit their Vistas on the Tiny Trainer the most common solution seemed to be replacing the outer screws - which have a rather odd screw sizeand probably void warranty, as the manual sais "don't open", so I didn't like that Idea to much - I had a look around and found dengors adapter for some other drone, which I adjusted a bit for my use (thinner bottom plate to keep the stack as low as possible, higher towers for better grip).
Its screwed on top of the AIO, and then the Air Unit can be pushed down on it - you should need some force to push it down, as it is supposed to friction hold the Vista Unit together with the canopy pressing on it.
I'm flying Frsky R9. I bought a micro Immortal (or is it called nano?) for crossfire, expecting it to fit, as both supposedly use u.fl, however the Frsky connector is smaller than the one of the crossfire antenna - So I had to use my full sized R9MM Importal T antenna.
I used flyfive33's antenna holder, cut it apart and extended it till it suited my needs. I'm using a larger zip tie to close the ring around the antenna stem, and use two small zipties to fixate the antenna.
I'm not fully happy with this yet, so I might make a mark2, that puts the antenna a bit lower, as it is uncomfortably close to the Rotors amt.
After cutting the canopy to fit the Caddx Vista unit, and using 6mm extensions to the front standoffs, the canopy was extremely close to the front propellers, and nobody wants their props strike the canopy, right? So I made some risers that you can use to put your motors a bit higher, by simply screwing them in under the motors (in my case BetaFPV 1404s)
