I had joined the first two tube parts (3R and 2R) and happily attached seam seal onto the inside of the seam before going to bed.

It also make mi curious about what kind of cameragear you use on your trips? I would also be interested to know what kins of riggs other pacraftbuilders use for mounting cameras when you are not shooting with a drone. Would it be a thing to have in mind before starting to assemble a diy-pacraft?
