mini talon 360 continuous rotation pan system

thingiverse

This is a continuous rotation pan system for the mini Talon or any other device that can accommodate it. Besides a 3D printer, three additional items are needed: a six-wire slip ring with a 12.5mm diameter identical to this one https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12-5mm-300Rpm-6-Wires-CIRCUITSx2A-Capsule-Slip-Ring-AC-240V-for-Monitor-Robotic/191788084102?epid=505565751&hash=item2ca775eb86:g:ZdUAAOSwH8ta3YzL, one 608Z roller skate bearing, and a standard size 360 servo or a modified standard rotation like mine. Two versions of this system have been created, one that fits in the rear of the hatch cover and another on a front canopy. A longer shaft has also been designed to allow for looking over the back while still maintaining functionality. In the future, tilt systems will be added to both options. The slip ring requires the flange trimming off, and it is fitted into the top of the shaft. The bearing is press-fit into the base, and the shaft is press-fitted into the bearing. It's easiest to fit the bearing first, but either way can work; I've tried both methods with success.
