What type of aluminum are you using for your board? Is there a specific reason for that shape of lightening patern?

This makes me cry a little inside, because compared to our electronics board, this is perfection...

My guess is 6061. There isn't much reason to do it in anything else. The lightening pattern is something a lot of west coast teams use. It makes it really easy to route wires.

The belly pan/lightening pattern is actually inspired by 233 who used it long before 2009 when 254 and 968 started doing the same thing.
