Supercompact gimbal and body for joystick (77mm x 137mm)

thingiverse

The system uses four bearings of 6mmx19mm, with bolts M6 used as axes for them. Two bearings 685ZZ (Ø5xØ11x5mm) are used for the load clamps. For the pitch axis, two springs 23mm are required, which are installed on both sides of the clamps on brackets (bolts M2-M4 can be used). These springs fit from the joystick Cobra m5. One spring 26mm is needed for the roll axis. The electronics - any non-contact one. The mounts are made for the Defender Cobra m5 joystick's second revision electronics by default. Magnets are installed on bolts M6 The base of the joystick body - a metal platform from the Defender Cobra m5 (holes need to be drilled for bolts, it is recommended to thread them in the platform). Rubber grommet - a dust shield from a hydraulic steering rack, suitable for many cars. Shaft (rod) - from furniture hardware, anything can be used. Plastic - ABS printed by the mechanism, body - PLA. Accuracy - incredible. No jamming, uneven loading - none. No play - none. No noise, creaks - none. No weak points in the mechanism - none (the model was carefully calculated). Limitations: - Weak loading when using a long rod, like mine. Large springs simply do not fit. - Much will need to be adjusted. For example, I heated up a worn-out bearing and embedded it into plastic to create a tight seat for target bearings, also screwed in heated screws into the plastic to create threads in it. You will need to select shafts 2-5mm for load bearings and clamps themselves.
