Default Avier / V2 Dissection & Reinforcing

I've been flying with the Avier / V2 using LK8000 and noticed that the lower right corner of the screen was getting very spongy. It gets lots of use since that's where the "menu" button is. After taking it apart it became apparent why. There is no support behind the bottom edge of the screen and it's particularly bad at the corner that went spongy. I was able to glue a couple 1/4" square balsa support blocks into the back of the frame to provide support. It's much better now and should be fine until the electronics die. No complaints with the function of the Avier, but the build quality isn't up to HP or Garmin standards.

Cheers,
Craig
