This is amazing, beautiful work from that guy!

Actually it did fit. My mistake. But it was a little weird. Weird in a way that the gear wouldn't easily go onto the servo spline like a normal servo horn would. Because it seemed only a little too small I put a little bit of pressure on it. You know what, it fit like a charm. I now have the...

It works like a charm! Really nice servo too, very steady main gear, not sloppy at all. I'm not really sure if its going to be fast enough, it doens't seem that quick. Today I'll have to modify my outside gear. I bought a 32 teeth mxl gear that was supposed to have a standard Futaba spline...

Nah... Not Mr... Just call me Jo. :nevreness: I know, but my first thought was to save the original potmeter in it's original state. In the end I did infact cut the legs a little. Should have done that from the start. It is! :tennis: I'll be glad when it's working alright. Guess I will...

Okay guys, time for an update. The servo has been modified! :highly_amused: It was a damn crappy job if I may say so, very stressy knowing that you could be throwing away 53 euro out of the window... Taking apart the servo was the hardest thing to do. Removing the gear was pretty easy. The...

Pete, on the first picture you see the nylon/plastic gear. That gear does in fact have a flat spot. The second picture is a pictures of the replacement metal gear. I just visually checked, no flat spot! So I think I'm going to be able to make it rotate all the way. I'll try to take some...

I will take some detailed pictures of the servo and the gear later on. You guys can tell me what you think.

Well, luckily for me, I bought the metal gear as extra gear set. I don't think I saw that on the metal gear, I mean that the teeth didn't go all the way around the gear. Let me look for a picture of the metal gear. Aah, here I found one (my servo is not at home at the moment): It looks like...

Okay, thx Bartman. I'll get into it tomorrow, starting by taking the servo apart.

Has someone ever tried to modify a Align servo for 270°/360°/continuous rotation? I need to modify a DS510 (I have spare metal gears) so it can rotate 270° or more. Is it actually possible to remove the built-in potmeter to use it externally? Lots of servo's need the potmeter axis to make the...

Damn, that is really good, nice work!!

My shafts are 3.15mm, so 3mm E clips are the ones I need. Okay, I'll have a look around where I can get them in europe

Just a question guys. I just ordered new ceramic bearings for my motors. Now, how do you guys put on the clip on the shaft? Because mine were bent/stretched to far when putting them on causing a lot of play on the shaft. Do you push your clip from the side? Or do you guys slide it over the...

My 2 axis gimbal & landing gear would be waaaaaaaaaay under the prices I'm seeing in previous links! :apathy: And my V1 gimbal is working great for me now in combination with the Naza gimbal controller, so I wouldn't call it "useless". Maybe if it's not configured the right way it might be...

I think I might be able to tell you in a couple of days/weeks. I've just redesigned my own gimbal for my new Sony Nex-5N. It might be a good solution between money/quality. It's actually part of my own custom designed landing gear of which I'm very satisfied with at the moment. I'm using it...
