Description

This is a simple board where you can mount a Rev Control Hub, two servos, a motor, a few Rev sensors, and a Rev LED indicator light.  This is a useful tool for training new programmers how to program for these components for FIRST Tech Challenge.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

I tried the original (which is actually a remix as well) and found a few areas for improvement:

  1. Changed the servo mounts - the originals were too tight and difficult to get the wire installed
  2. Changed the motor mount - the original only allows newer motors.  The remix will work with older motors as well.
  3. Added labels - these will help with installing components consistently and remembering which component is in which port for port mapping.  The text is 0.4mm high, so you can color them with a marker or use multi-material making those two layers a different color, or paint just the text in your slicer.
  4. Redesigned the motor indicator - makes the pointer even more obvious.  Also made one for 6mm d-shaft motors.
  5. Added a hexagon pattern for the fun of it.  HEXAGONS ARE THE BESTAGONS!
