Qidi X-Max Icarus ADXL345 (GY-291) mount

To measure the resonance for the klipper resonance compensation, you need a RaspberryPi + an ADXL345 which needs to be mounted to the toolhead.

I've switched from the original Qidi Extruders to humebeam's Icarus 2.1 due to massive problems with the print quality. This switch also allowed me to add various measurement devices (like a dial gauge) to the front of the toolhead. Only a new adapter had to be designed to mount the ADXL345 firmly in place. It follows the same principles as the original dial gauge holder

Additional materials required:

• 2x M3x6/8 screws for the ADXL345 GY-291 PCB
• 2x M3 nuts for the ADXL345 GY-291 PCB
• 1x M3x20 screw for icarus holder (can be a little bit more or less in length)
• 1x M3 insert (ruthex/CNC kitchen recommended)

It is not recommended to leave the ADXL345 GY-291 PCB (and this adapter) on the Icarus after finishing the resonance measurement. Otherwise there is a chance to collide with camera mounts or similar things.
