thingiverse

I am happy to share these 3D parts to convert a Kyosho phaser MK2 Nissan GTX toys car into a DIY robocar, capable of autonomous driving.All source files are provided in scad format so that you can tweak these parts to fit your specific needs .This includes 3D parts for : Plate for Electronics ( Raspberry pi and PCA9685 ) Speed sensorCamera holderNote : original car parts are not modified and it is possible to revert fully to the original RC setup.The electronic plate is designed to support :1 Raspberry pi 3 or 41 PCA9685 pwm generator.The camera holder must be printed also in a mirrored position . Concerning the speed sensor :The below sensor is needed :https://www.amazon.fr/Willwin-Lm393-Puce-mesurant-Comparateur-Optocoupleur/dp/B0776RHKB1/ref=sr_1_11?keywords=lm393&qid=1698262167&sr=8-11procedure to install the sensor :1) remove the plastic Cap of the lm393 sensor2) unsolder the 2 leds ( Ir send and ir receive ) . be sure to mark them so that you can resolder them back later into the correct pins.3) Solder the 2 pins of the 2 leds to 4 15cm wires ( do not put too much metal... )4) position the leds within the sabot.stl part and insert the wires within the holes to block the wires.5) Solder back the wire ends on to the LM393 board.6) Screw the backplate and backplate_electronique on the back of the car7) on the back wheels : replace the fake brake plate with the printed parts wheelplate and encoderwheel.8) screw the sabot to the back wheel reusing the fake brake system screws.9) install the lm393 board on the back plate with a screw
