files
Overview
These files are to keep the CYPI( 23-45’s drone) in place as we test out our pid values. If you don’t understand the purpose of the test stand, please go to the crazyflie test stand. The main idea is to isolate one axis in order to tune the quadcopter. These stand hook onto the battery holder and are held in with four screws. These files were created in Fusion 360, and all the files you need should be on this git repo.
The Stand
The stand is a bit different from the Crazyflie stand because the “head” part is shorter to allow more of the actuator to be seen through the stand. This allows the set screw to be able to grab.
Additionally, the other design doesn’t have any threads. I think that this is much better because when I did add a thread it just stripped out.
This brings me to the next point, I would highly suggest hot gluing the actuator in. It just makes it so much better from a stability standpoint.
When using this, IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU HAVE CLAMPS mounting it down.
The Battery Holder
This creates a connection between the battery and the stand. All holes on this stand are threaded which means this creates structural integrity between all parties. This also means when printing this you must use the best quality.
The Yaw Stand
What you will notice that is special about the yaw stand is that there is a place to insert a set screw. This will keep the stand mounted to the actual test stand
Roll and Pitch
This uses the same thoughts as the yaw axis but just has two base stations to hold it.
the legs
For printing the legs there are two types thelonger ones work pretty well but we also made shorter ones depending on the application the key point is to make sure the top has 100% infill so that it can hold the screw and doesn't break.
