Guest StevenWhatley Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I made a remote focuser from two servos after seeing it on a video on Youtube, super easy to do and less then a £20 works GREAT too !!!

stash Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Are they 360 servos ? What are you using for the friction discs on the servo head ? Look good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StevenWhatley Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Yep they are now, i opened them both up took the pin out drive rod and removed everything except the motor and gears, I used an old large plastic gear I had in the toolbox covered with a bit of black vinyl and then glued an elastic band to it as my micro-focuser knob is quite grippy that's all it needed. Simples!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
