Gimbal joystick v3 Kompatto

[Marvel]

Hi folks, here my last production about gimbal joystick. Is an all metal work (ergal and aluminium)  production of a well-know 3d gimbal joystick that many of you have already seen on the web. I hope this is the definitive one for me ?.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here a short video:

 

Next steps will be the sensors, I will use once again my beloveds AS5600.

 

Ciao!

Some really nice work there dude. 

 

(Though from a professional point of view I think the embedded nuts are a tad overkill, especially as you're not even using capscrews with them.)

 

Hope it works out for you!

You've right mate but I really liked the idea and I trasferred that on this all metal work. With  jump EDM was a quick job.

Fair enough. Actually if I think about I'm a total hypocrit, I'm the king of overkill machining! ? (I just don't have a CNC.) 

 

Here's a WIP of my brake lever, just as an example. ?

?? You can brake with both hands and no fear to break something! ??

Hi Marvel,

Great work! I am impressed by this design. I found this forum as I was searching for gimbal designs and had to ask you about some details. You stated its from the production of a well-know 3d gimbal joystick that many of us have already seen on the web. I have know idea which 3d gimbal stick you were referring. Do you mind sharing the actual brand and model? I am looking to build something similar for a VR idea. I would like for the gimbal built to be able to bare the weight of up to 150 kg. I would like to start researching where I can get the metal work done and what may be the best potentiometers to use. Would love to hear your suggestions. 

 

Thanks
