Description

A camera rotator for telescopes. Built around a manual rotator with a stepper driving belt drive.
Use this manual rotator: https://www.rothervalleyoptics.co.uk/rvo-m42-caa-360-rotator.html

You will also need a 10mm spacer, screw into the CAA, and the pulley wheel goes onto this.

Use a 254mm GT2 belt and 20T pulley wheel on the motor.

A small bearing can be used in the slot to adjust tension (remove the supports here once printed)

 

Small holes (to be tapped after print) in the main pulley wheel are for M3 grub screws.

Screw holes are scaled to fit M3 heat inserts.

 

3D files only, you will need your own stepper driver board and ASCOM driver.

 

I'm just sharing as people have expressed interest, but I am not really posting this as a “product” so to speak. It is just provided “as-is”.

Feel free to ask any questions though if you have any and I'll try to help.
