Diatone White Sheep GoPro Gimbal

thingiverse

This is a GoPro Gimbal I've designed around the GBM2804 Hollow Shaft Motors for the White Sheep. It enables nice cable management with cable guides, allowing cables to move freely without tension from any angle of the gimbal. Some parts were salvaged from a cheap Ebay Gimbal like the Vibration dampeners and the Alexmos Board. (I have some arms for these kinds of motors as well, marked as MADPOWER) The GoPro is mounted in a Housing and secured by a velcro strap. You will need to sew it. (It's really not that difficult with a sewing machine, or just ask your mom). Alternatively, you can trust the friction of the housing to hold it. The housing allows for a slim FPV cable to the GoPro, available here: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__57996__Super_Slim_GoPro_3_A_V_Cable_And_Power_Lead_For_FPV_UK_Warehouse_.html?strSearch=slim%20fp What to Print? * 1x TopCap.STL * 2x TopCap.STL (if you use no FPV Camera) * 1x TopCap.STL and 1x FPVMount.STL (for FPV Board Cam) ARMGBM2804Fix has no adjustment to balance the Gimbal, but is pretty much the balance point for it. As well, you can mount the Zip Tie inside the arm, so its flush. Maybe I will incorporate that into the normal Arm...
