Carsystem Servohalter Abzweigung Modelleisenbahn H0 Magnetstreifen 6mm

Hi makers of miniature car systems. In Germany, they're called "Carsystem". This is a holder for a standard 9g Miniatur Servo. Before setting the servo into its place, prepare it: cut a 20mm length piece from 6mm-width vertical polarized magnetic tape and glue it onto the top of one-way-servo-horn (check out the pictures). Make sure to glue it without any space on it and make sure it's on the right side - just test the magnetic north/south first. After preparing the servo, put it into the two holding arms; there's a small 0.5mm edge that holds the servo in place, then you can secure it with two small screws or threads or just glue it. With a simple servotester, you can test the middle position as well as the left and right positions where your miniature car will drive over the magnetic lane later. With a servodecoder, you can program your street crossing. When driving through, simply set the servo arm in front direction; when driving left, remember your left position base; the same with right position. All together, you can make a round hole about 34mm in diameter and put it or glue it from bottom to a thin plate of max some millimeters, so that magnetic force is high enough to keep miniature car on lane. You can turn the holder with servo on its Z-axis to find the perfect position in the hole within the wooden baseplate. Then you can test your miniatur system; if cars with their small Neodym-magnet at front stay on the magnetic lane and drive over servo-crossing without any problem. Good luck and good making from Thomas alias iZapper/Kaufbeuren-Germany
