We designed this mount to be robust enough for demonstrating the Mini works at Mach 1+ using a Northrop T-38 aircraft

This was designed to be mounted to glass with three industrial suction cups. It had to be robust enough for 6+ G's acceleration, and rapidly stow-able, and take up as little space as possible. The base includes a cavity for a 4500 mAh 6S lipo battery pack with integral circuit protection (breaker) and pack monitoring (voltage indicator). With the approximate ~40 watt draw of the Starlink Mini antenna, the system is a true stand-alone package that will enable satellite connectivity for about 2 hours.
Good for mounting into your personal T-38, or any other area with a flat, smooth surface ;)
Printed originally on a Stratasys F370, but will fit on a Prusa Mk3/4
