Baofeng UV5R EXOSKELETON [STL]

Baofeng UV5R Exoskeleton — Lightweight, Practical Protection

A clean slide-on exoskeleton made for the Baofeng UV5R series. It locks in place using the belt clip screws and keeps full access to all essential controls — battery release, volume knob, antenna, belt clip, and both PTT and CALL/MONI buttons (even with gloves).

The main idea is simple: protect the radio, stop accidental PTT presses, and keep your volume where you set it — all while adding almost no weight.

Printing details (tested setup):
• Material: SUNLU PETG
• Walls: 5
• Infill: 60%
• Layer height: 0.2 mm (0.6 mm nozzle)
• No supports needed — built-in supports included
• Printed on a Prusa MK3S with REVO 0.6 mm nozzle
• Use a textured PEI plate for the best finish

Some minor play may appear on the side button cover depending on printer calibration, but it won’t affect function.
