"Well, they published some schematics on their page, but no eagle files / CAD drawings...

"Hi Frantz
Sure here you go. But please note that I have the Dropix, and since it comes without case it is sandwiched between ground and top plate with mm EPP in between. This is more to ensure rigidness than dampening since the fc can not move at…"
