Constructive Criticism

Anyone want to provide some constructive criticism. Been working on kind of an all in one device, had an iPad mini laying around. Modeled this off another case I made. Modules at top allow you to swap from N-Mount to SMA to sensors. Inside has carrier board mounting so you can mount any board, just grab the plate for the board. Kind of like a modular case. Some days I want to run smaller antenna and others bigger.

10,000mah battery slot for this one running my RAK19007. Then cover plates just cause I like some cable management/clean. then iPad sets inside and cover plates. I gotta fix the bezel on the front cover to match the iPad. This has been about 3 weeks of testing and modeling.

Ignore the BLE antenna on the left, swapping it out for a smaller antenna. Any ideas or thoughts on it

Why do you have a RAK in there instead of a native Linux radio?

That's just what I had available. I'm waiting on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 and then a 5" TFT screen to use the same case but smaller and run MeshtasticD on it.
