New Octo build

[chschmid]

I just finished the first arm of my new octo. A new solution to Mount the ESC32.

I am as always happy to get some comments. There are always Details to improve.

Cheers

Christof,

I really like the idea with the "tray" for the ESC32's, plus holding the caps...
3D printed? Are you thinking about selling them?

Did you use some stiffeners to keep the tube round were you bolt the motor mount to the tube?

Hi Christof, that's probably the cleanest ESC32 "package" I've seen yet! Love the cap supporter. Only thing missing for me is room for some thin (flat aluminum/ceramic) heat sinks. The female bullets are solid, butt-soldered like that? Looks great.

Cheers,

Maybe if it was chocolate or clockwork...

Yea, didn't mean to imply that Christof would need heat sinks for that particular setup. There might even be enough room under there already... hard to tell.

Also an option for horizontal bullets with the carrier board for additional support/contact area... mmmm.

Where do the main power leads connect to?

Thanks for the comments. I will post some more pics soon.
Depending on the spacer and overall highth between lower and upper mot Mount, Heatsinks can be mounted easyly.

Cheers

The ESC32 mount is cut from 1.5mm GF and the ESC32 just glued with a drop of CA.
