Remix of Parking Brake

thingiverse

Update Feb 1st, 2022: I totally recreated the front and the back plate and shortened the case and the shaft a little. *************** This is a combination of three indipendent parts.... For the brake mechanism itself i took and redesigned https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4889265. Now it is possible to use a rubber band instead of a spring and to change it easily when torn rubber. Black PLA - 25% Infill - Raft recommended for all parts - Print the Case upright to get rid of the support (which would be very difficult to remove) For the handle i took https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2589251 where i removed the word "Brake". Ok, it was designed for a Jeep...but hey, i liked the design for my favorite FSX Plane A321. White TPU - >= 75% Infill You can either print the handle at 99% (and hope) or - like i did - put a small screw through the handle into the shaft. Otherwise it could happen - like it did with me - that the handle slides off and the shaft runs back at "full speed" and kills the cap at the end of the case. Front plate and mounting back plate inspired by https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4032512 I took only the front plate, redesigned it and seperated it into two parts. One for "outside" and one for holding the case inside. Additional modified the front plate to hold one LED as indicator for the state of the parking brake. Black PLA - 25% Infill For the electronic part (connection to FSX e.g.) i use Mobiflight from https://www.mobiflight.com/en/index.html
