Based on vascosim's excellent remake of the muzi.works model.
No supports need. Snip the support at the end of the internal antenna shaft if desired.
Fits Heltec V4 and GPS, standard stubby antenna and 3000mAh Meshnology battery.
Link to the kit I have tested as working in this case:

I've had good results printing .12 layer height with 15% grid infill. You can pick different colors for the accent pieces or just print all in one color. Use a small slotted screwdriver to pull back the circuit board retention tab. I also used a small piece of thin adhesive foam to keep the battery from rattling around.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It helps to install the antenna mount onto the Heltec and into the case first and then screw in your stubby antenna before inserting the battery. The board will power on as soon as you do! (Powering on the board without an antenna installed could damage it.)
Don't forget to install the buttons before you put your board in!
UPDATE: included an .STL with recessed buttons
