Summary:

The light and legend plates do not extend over a backplate cutout on the landing gear panel. LED backlighing for the DN legend will likely blead out the hole.

Expected Results/How It Should Work:

The cut out for the LED/Resistor should be covered by the light and legend plate.

Actual Results/How It Does Work:

There is a small gap that doesn't cover the backplate cutout fully.

I have this gap in the panel I built, and have seen photos on discord from other builders that also have this gap.

As a workaround, pot it with black RTV or similar.

We will get this in after B1 - trying very hard to not change any PCBs for relatively minor things until there is something that drives us to do more than one thing to a PCB.
