Batteries
To include this file in your programs:
Use
The filename as a module will echo the module names of the models in the file e.g.
LiPo_Bat(); = ECHO: "LiPo_Bat : Nano_Tech_180_2S, Zippy_350_2S, Zippy_Compact_1000_2S, Nano_Tech_1500_2S, Nano_Tech_370_2S, Nano_Tech_1200_S_RC"
A module will echo the size (x, y, z) of the battery e.g.
Nano_Tech_180_2S(); = ECHO: "Nano_Tech_180_2S (35.4, 20, 10)"
RC Receivers
To include this file in your programs:
Use
The filename as a module will echo the module names of the models in the file e.g.
RC_RX(); = ECHO: "RC_RX:- HK_GT2R, TGY-IA6"
A module will echo the size (x, y, z, height of plugs) of the model e.g.
TGY_IA6(true); = ECHO: "TGY iA6 Rx (42, 22, 8) Plugs 14.5"
ESC BEC and Ferrite
To include this file in your programs:
Use
The filename as a module will echo the module names of the models in the file e.g.
ESC_BEC(); = ECHO: "TGY_UBEC3A, HK_10A_ESC, FerriteRing13"
A module will echo the size (x, y, z, max height) of the model e.g.
TGY_UBEC3A() = ECHO: "TGY_UBEC3A", [42, 22, 2], "Max hgt = 9"
module
Description
TGY_UBEC3A();
Turnigy 3A UBEC With Low Voltage Buzzer (9171000012)
HK_10A_ESC();
HobbyKing 10A ESC 1A UBEC (261000002)
FerriteRing13();
HobbyKing Soft Ferrite Rings 16x7x10 (5pc) (343000002)
5g Servo
To include this file in your programs:
use
microServo5g(); will echo the size (x, y, z, length over mountings) e.g.
microServo5g();= ECHO: "micro servo 5g (19.9. 19.3, 24.2, 27.2)"

Note: The servo [0, 0, 0]' is the vertical shaft axis and the bottom of the mounting lugs

9g Servo
To include this file in your programs:
use
microServo9g(); will echo the size (x, y, z, length over mountings) e.g.
microServo9g();= ECHO: "micro servo 5g (19.9. 19.3, 24.2, 27.2)"

Note: The servo [0, 0, 0]' is the vertical shaft axis and the bottom of the mounting lugs

2.2Kg Servo
To include this file in your programs:
use
microServo2kg(); will echo the size (x, y, z, length over mountings, options) e.g.
microServo2kg(out = "H", arm = "r");=
ECHO: "Servo 2.2kg", [22, 12, 22.5, 27]"
ECHO: "Servo 2.2kg options : l or r"
Parameters
Command: microServo2kg(out="h", arm="l", lng = 15);
out
Horn
arm
Direction
lng
"d" or "D"
output disc
arm length
"a" or "A"
single arm
"l" or "L"
arm left
arm length
"h" or "H"
dual arm
r" or "R"
arm right
arm length

Note: The servo [0, 0, 0]' is the vertical shaft axis and the bottom of the mounting lugs

Hints
These files should be in the same folder as your code or in the OpenSCAD Library folder.
The command to include these files in your programs is:
use
it is easier to print the servo and arm separately.
