Hi, see attached some screenshots of 3D Viewer showing the HackRF board, it could replace this one in kicad-pcb.org http://www.kicad-pcb.org/display/KICAD/KiCad+EDA+Software+Suite?preview=/589828/1376287/kicad_3dviewer.png
Who should I ask to upload it? The other screenshots could be updated too, they look ancient.
