Hand held gimbal V2

thingiverse

I wanted a decent hand held gimbal but didn't want to shell out the bucks for something like an Osmo. This is revision 2 of the hand held gimbal, a much better design. The battery cover is a tight fit, depending on your printer, some sanding might be necessary. It uses 10mm tube to mount the gimbal, I used some spare carbon fiber one from my drone. A 1000mah lipo fits nicely in the handle and is cover by the handle cover. I added a thumb joystick for gimbal control and the cover in screwed over it, link below. If you use the joystick, it needs removed from the casing it comes in and just the circuit board, thumbstick and wire leads are used. The joystick thumb cover has a 2mm post that holds the joystick circuit board secure in the handle. I use a dys smart 3 axis gimbal, but this would work with any gimbal that uses a 60mm rail system. The top handle can be slid on the 10mm rails and adjust for best grip. It also uses an on/off switch. I used a spare from my parts bin but the link below has one that would work. https://www.amazon.com/powerdayHHG-JS-Joystick-controller-Controller-Stabilizer/dp/B01L6VG13Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1490350227&sr=8-1&keywords=gimbal+joystick https://www.amazon.com/Square-Bezel-Momentary-Rocker-Switch/dp/B004GIJ05I/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1490413010&sr=8-10&keywords=square+on+off+switch
