About this 3D model
I made this gimbal for my Canon A640, but it can easily be used for other camera types. The design is based on the Nex5 gimbal from Nilsepils94 (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:248930) Total print volume is 98 cm3. To complete the gimbal you will need: 2x Quanum 4008 brushless motors 1x controller board, 2-axis 1x carbon shock absorbing plate with rubber dampers 4x 16 mm alu. Tarot tube clamp 4x 12 mm tube clamp ...some srews and bolts Update: first test with Sony NEX 5: http://youtu.be/yjy8nDaOKOk update 2015-02-15: I had problems with the gimbal when using it with the heavier Sony Nex. Sad to say I replaced it with it a DYS because of vibrations I could not get rid of. Probably because the construction is not stiff enough and I used too light rubber vibration dampers. Update 2016-01-19: with some more experience with the Alexmos in retrospect I think the vibrations were caused by bad PID values or bad connection of the IMU sensor. For controller, a stand alone nulled version Alexmoss controller was used Some small faults in the 3D print design: - diameter around motors of the could be 0.5 mm bigger (tight fit; had to use aceton) - cable location differ 90 degrees on some Quanum motors; The position seems not consistant in respect of the mounting thread holes The design was printed with a Leapfrog, without support material.
