Description
This is an STS-Pi Pimoroni (https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/sts-pi) adapter plate to easily attach additional gear to the roving robot. Just zip-tie it through the openings.
The 3 different versions are:
-cutout for pi camera and Explorer pHAT
-cutout for Explorer pHAT
-no cutout (if you decide to directly solder the motor wires to the Explorer pHAT)
If you want to use the xplorer HAT Pro you might need to alter the cutout you I included the FreeCAD model as well.
I also included a remix of the https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:434600 to also be able to attach IR supported cameras.
Since I don't have a thread gauge for imperial threads I was not able to find out which thread is used at the nuts provided with the STS-Pi, so I designed it with a M5 Thread.
The length should be sufficient to also attach the standard power bank holder.
If you want to use a printed M5 nut: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2626023 you might have to re-cut the thread, or just use a metal M5.

Sunlu or Surreal PLA or PETG works fine Post-Printing =============Thread rework
If you want do use the printed M5 nut (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2626023), you might have to re-cu the thread with a thread scheid iron. If you are using a metal M5 nut, you should be able to just screw it tight with a little more torque.
FreeCAD
...if you want to customize the cutout or add some sensor brackets....
Here is the FreeCAD model.
