    They look great! Your idea of heat shrink over the control stick tubing is a fantastic idea.

    Did you have to sand the adapter or grip to make then fit? It look like I need to sand some off the adapters.

    They should slide right into the grip locking rings. Note that they do not go into the control stick tube. There may be a slight edge on the bottom that could be sanded if needed, but nothing too aggressive should be required. Send some pics and maybe I can assist further.

    I dont have the control stick tube yet, just the ptt and grips. This is as far as I can get it in easily. Without sanding or filing.

    I had to sand down the connector, the clip part

    See if it will install without the wiring first to see if thats your problem

    Glad it worked out for you. What make and model grips did you purchase? I am more than happy to modify and send you new 3d printed parts at no charge. I have only tested these with LizardSkins, so other brands might have slightly difference physical dimensions.

    Good luck on the kit and I look forward to seeing some pics of them installed!
