Ladybug's Magic Yoyo

thingiverse

This is Ladybug's "Magic Yoyo". It contains the akuma catcher, light and electronics to <b>simulate</b> a mobile phone. <b>Electronics</b> The embedded processor board is a Teensy 3.2 and a 1.8 inch LCD. Some resistors, transistors and wires are also required. See AssemblyInstructions.pdf for details. <b>Description:</b> This design requires some skills in electronics, programming and model building and a lot of patience is required also. This is not an easy-to-assemble kit! Due to the mass of the yo-yo (when completely assembled it is very heavy, 175 gr w/o batteries) it is not recommended to be used as an operating yo-yo. The printed parts and the electronics will not survive that for a long time. <b>This design contains:</b> - the stl files for 2 different 1.8 LCD boards, - all OpenSCAD source files and related dxf files (Magic_Yoyo_Ellipse_SCAD.zip), - the Fritzing schematic for the wiring of the electronics (magic_yoyo.fzz) - Arduino sketch for the Teensy 3.2 or TeensyLC embedded computer (MagicYoYo.zip) This sketch is only an example and demonstration what could be done with the electronics. It is not meant to be a complete application software. I used it to test the functions of the electronics and the wiring of the yo-yo.
