We need to move MAP sensor to a safer spot. Maybe add space for much more got glue/epoxy around MAP #106

Pictured rev F with too many components around allowing only for small amount of hot glue

I think more glue is not the solution

Move MAP location nearer to the middle of the board or close to connector, to evade damage during shipping

Besides, no amount of glue will save you. The pins/PCB are stiffer than the glue, so any deflection will result in stress in the pins, not the glue. The pins will snap off, then the glue will bear the load only once that's happened. You need either a stiff urethane glue or epoxy, mechanical connection (ie, bolt), or move the sensor.

move the sensor.

I agree, location on the edge seems to be the main issue

@Qwerty-OFF still on the edge :(

rusefillc commented 1 year ago

so that it's NOT on the edge of the board?
