What brand pack and regulator is that? Nicely done!!

What my current thinking was was to put the regulator under the pack and tape it to the CF panel similar to how you have done, but put the regulator UNDER the pack. Then use some 3mm ID standoffs and longer screws between the top deck and the CF panel to lower it towards the chassis.

I have tried to glue the packs to the chassis, the glue does not hold to the metal very successfully.
