Knurled screw on the battery compartment of the Star Adventurer GTi
Goal: ->Securing the battery compartment cover on a Star Adventurer GT1.
Solution: ->Replacing the knurled screw
Tool: ->Screwdriver
Craftsmanship challenge: 1/5 stars
Procedure:
It used to be a small screw. And this small screw was a bit too short. The screw suffered greatly as a result. Some users suffer even more from a wobbly battery compartment (see images 1 and 2). However, since the thread in the drilled hole is long enough (phew), the solution is simple. Just a 6-8mm M3 screw, and everything will be fine (see image 4). But CAUTION: A knurled screw is an advantage.
And now the cover is in place (image 5), the user is satisfied, and the short screw goes into the box with the other "short ones."
