A different way to flat mount your Starlink Dishy

  • There are multitudes of videos out there on how to cut and flat mount your Starlink. I started down that path until an easier way popped up on my feed.
    Here's how I dissembled and flat mounted my Dishy without special mounting hardware or cases. It worked out great, but I think next time I'll print the curves.
    The video that inspired me to go this route:

    This was *exactly* the vid I've been looking for, for over a week.
    The question now is can I take that stupid stick off without opening up the dishy??!
    Why aren't others doing it this way? Are they just Dremel deprived?!

      Glad you found it! I actually saw one other guy do it this way, which inspired me. This way is much better than the sloppy ragged edge you have to deal with when cutting 😀. Of course, They're making flat dishes now 🤦‍♂️

      Hi @diezmon do you think it's possible to separate the pole from the motors with it still in the dishy? You had the motors in the vice and prized it off with a screwdriver in the vid. Wondering if it's possible to "push" the motors out some how with a smaller pole inside the dishy pole. Would have to deal with the cable & connector 1st though.

      ​​@@AndiusPandiusI think it's probably possible. I remember it was really a pain trying to get that thing out without prying it with that screwdriver though.
      There's also a shroud over it that you can't remove until you take it out of that dish. That'll probably get in your way. You can see me slide that off once I have it cut apart

    What speeds did you have before mounting it flat and what avg. speeds have you seen since posting?

      It depends. I had some blockage/trees at home, so I'd see anywhere from 35-150Mbps.
      But once I was on the road I was seeing up to 300 👍

    It hurts!! To see all that. lol. I think I'm just going to go with the brand new flat dish that is the same price as the articulated one. And it has a wider field of view.

      Ya, they're finally coming out with more options. Did you try eye drops? 🤣
