Description

Can you share any photos or experiences from your assembly?

Assembly issues:

  1. I can't figure out how to install the camera module in the top of the print, even without the flex attached. It seems like the camera sensor housing is meant to slip through the gap in the ring, but the screw bosses interfere with components on the bottom of the camera board.
  2. Does your "Apple medallion" fit in place at the back? The camera flex appears to block it as it needs an extra bit of room to do a 90 degree bend.

Things that work well:

  1. The RPiZero fits in nicely and the screws hold it neatly in place.
  2. The Front lens assembly fits snugly into the camera ring and the iris actuates nicely.

Reproduce the reported fit and clearance problems against the printed parts. The issue does not name files or tests, and completion criteria are not specified beyond resolving the reported assembly interference.
