Rotation joint with end stops

thingiverse

Part 16 of the new rover is a crucial part, the body mount for the top of the leg assembly. The revised design gives complete control over every movement, allowing rotation around 360 degrees without any limitations. But this freedom can sometimes result in accidental flips, where the model twists itself upside down and causes damage to other parts that aren't designed to handle such extreme movements. This new remix puts a stop to all that by limiting the leg rotation to +/- 35 degrees. This adjustment prevents damage to the suspension system and allows for more aggressive driving, perfect for my 5-year-old son who loves speeding up the robot on his own terms. You'll need two of these body mounts for the rover, one for the left side and a mirrored version for the right. To print them out, use the following settings: printer - JGAURORA A3, rafts - doesn't matter, supports - also doesn't matter, resolution - 0.2mm, infill - 30%. This should be an easy print that anyone can handle. Designing this part was a breeze thanks to FreeCAD. The model is available for download if you need it. It's straightforward and simple, making it perfect for beginners who want to get started with printing their own rover parts.
