Guys, I am kinda stumped on how to secure my altimeter in my SSSS bird. I have a MAWD, so it's plenty small. I usually just use rivets to hold my altimeter bay into one section of the airframe for a DD setup, but this will be apogee deploy and I obviously don't want screws or rivets sticking out of the rocket body. If anyone has suggestions or pictures I would be most thankful.
If it is possible, can you glue one end into a section of body tube? If you block the other end for the charge then you have an opening in the side of the coupler tube to slide the electronics into the electronics bay. You would have to use flathead screws through the coupler wall to secure the electronics in place.

Hey Batman, have you solved this yet? if not, lemme know and I'll help.
As you said "SSSS" and not "SSS", that means it is at least 38mm. You have a BOATLOAD of room in there 😉 It does get a bit more interesting in 29mm and 24mm, but obviously still doable. I use different solutions for all three tube diameters.
