Microservo Gimbal
thingiverse
I created a simple three-axis gimbal one night when inspiration struck to build a small, uncomplicated robot. I designed the CAD model myself, with a specific limitation in mind - I wanted to be able to print it all at once on my 100mm^3 printer. Although I ended up printing it in separate pieces, it still functions as a compact robot. Check out these GIFs of it in action: https://gfycat.com/PerfectIdealisticDuckbillcathttps://gfycat.com/BeneficialOptimalFluke I'm not completely satisfied with the design, as there are some aesthetic changes I'd like to make, but it works perfectly so I decided to share what I have so far. To build this device, you'll need a printer and three microservos, plus an Arduino board. If you want the electronics and wiring to fit neatly into the base, use a mini or nano Arduino model. The gimbal can currently only move around, which is why the "main arm" is just a dummy arm waiting for a camera mount, laser pointer mount, or other device to be installed. I haven't decided what to put there yet. Print Settings Printer Brand: Up! Printer: Up Mini Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: 0.3mm Infill: 15% Notes: It's a good idea to rotate the parts so that the servo side of each arm is against the bed.
