Diatone Ripper: THE MISSING PART (aero pan servo nose)

September 9, 2021
Description
_Update Dec 2021:_ Added a camera-only variation for ultimate aerodynamic speed. Thanks Bambusgott. Edit again: now added a completely blank version too. Any other requests welcome.
Part 3 in my _make-the-Ripper-epic_ series: An aerodynamic nose for a pan-mount servo. The Ripper, also known/sold sold as the HEE Wing F-01.
Let's say you gave your Ripper [removable wings](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4946545) (that's part 1!) and [servo covers](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4947355) (part 2) but want to actually see where you're turning? Get yo'self a pan mount.
### Servo Selection
Get the [TGY-R5180MG](https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigytm-tgy-r5180mg-180-degree-mg-analog-servo-2-0kg-0-12sec-12g.html) 180º servo and extend the PWM output to 700-2300 (on either your FC or transmitter). **This gives you 270º of rotation!**
Also works great with the [TGY-180D](https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigytm-tgy-180d-180-degree-digital-servo-2-2kg-0-10sec-12g.html) digital version of that servo. Slightly less range but much improved accuracy.
### Pan mounts
I've included my minimalist camera pan mount parts as well, designed specifically for those two servos. Also check out my [insta360 go2 pan mount](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4834571) if you've got one of those!

### Print it in LW-PLA
Try a roll or lightweight-pla and only add a dozen grams to your nose. And/or print it with one perimeter but with regular PLA and it's still not too bad.
### Post your make!

Please post 'em! Really! Take a quick cameraphone photo of your print in all its glory and show it off! Plus it really helps get this design out there to the world.

Designing stuff is fun but interacting with cool people and hearing about their adventures is better. I can generate any variation / engraving easily, message me on [discord](https://b.link/t4discord)/[telegram](https://t.me/coolwheel) and/or leave a comment and let's make your perfect mount. I only ask that you post a make!
