Caddx Turtle V2 Pan Tilt

<p>This is a pan/tilt mechanism I made up for the Caddx Turtle V2. Here's a video detailing the assembly and all that good stuff. ;)</p> <p> <figure class="media"> <oembed url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6yvLsiA2TZ4"></oembed> </figure> </p> <p>Parts are all rotated in correct orientation for printing. Print with a 0.4mm extrusion width so the thin walled-standoffs get printed properly. I printed mine at a low layer height and slow speeds since they are some rather small parts. After recording the video, I added some "webbing" to the base to strengthen the front where the "tilt axis" is, around those screws. I printed it with PLA and PETG, both printed fine, PLA was a bit easier to print, but PETG will be more durable, especially on hot summer days. :)</p> <p>Update 1/12/19 - I added a small "shroud" or mount for the pan servo to fit on top of the Dart XL canopy where I mounted this. Here's a video testing it all out, works well! <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nfn7x_39Ttg">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nfn7x\_39Ttg</a></p> Category: R/C Vehicles
