Take a moment to review the components in the circuit diagram. This illustration is meant for referencing wired connections - The length of wire, position and size of components are not exact.

Connections:

 

We connected the motors to the Drive Terminal: 

  • 5V is shared through a Wire Joint
  • The ground (black wires) connect to the 1 and 2 terminals

 

You can also use the motor terminal if you need to program different movements:

 

Black and Red wires will connect to either side of the 1 or 2 labeled terminals 

 

The Water Proof 3xAA battery case connects to the barrel port on the Crickit and is mounted to the printed lid.

Motor wire length:

  • Left: 280mm
  • Right 240mm

Screws:

 

Motor:

  • Four M2x8mm
  • Prop set screw: One each M2x5

CPX to Crickit:

  • Six M3x6mm

Crickit to enclosure:

  • Four M3x6mm

Noodle holder:

  • Two M2x5mm for each holder

60mm diameter pool noodle

Camera Parts:

  • ¾ to 1/4-20 tripod screw
  • 1/4-20 to 1/4-20 adapter
