Open Source 3D printed flight stick! Works with any office chair!

[JumpnShootman]

 

Thanks to my incredible patreons and PCBWay I’ve reached the milestone of having a complete electrical guide!

 

I've also got a bonus in this video, a complete kit for mounting the stick to any office chair. This could be adapted for other joysticks too! Keep your eyes out for updates on my youtube, github and patreon!

 

Here is the previous video build guide on how to put the mechanical parts together: 

 

 

 

You can download the files directly from my github page, including STEP files:

All the parts are 100% open source (CC BY-SA 2.0) so feel free to remix, redesign, Just please share them with the community!

 

The electrical setup supports both freejoy and MMJOY2

 

It uses cheap commodity components like 608 Skateboard bearings and 6003 bearings (common in power tools) and is almost entirely 3D printed (PETG) with a 0.6 nozzle and using common 2020 extruded aluminum bars.

 

My goal for the project is by using entirely commodity parts, I can keep the entire final bill of materials under 150 USD! Designed for the core to be printed on an Ender 3 with a single 1KG roll of PETG and add-ons can be printed in PLA+

 

Supporting my patreon will allow me to buy filament, hardware, bearings and electronics Also get early access to in-progress files, and at a higher tier have your name engraved into the gimbal itself.
