Description

Drone payload release system, custom-built for my DJI F330 but also compatible with other types of drones. It works thanks to an SG90 9g servo motor. The base has 3mm holes, but they can easily be enlarged even after the job is finished to accommodate any type of bolt. The post's joint has a very generous hole to easily adapt to as many bolts as possible. The only precaution is to avoid overtightening it to avoid straining the servo motor and to use a screw with the smallest possible head. I also designed the servo hand to be the right size that can be attached to the joint with a screw heated with a lighter or on the stove. All this to ensure a system compatible with screws and bolts you find at home without having to necessarily buy ones suitable for this purpose.
Two variants are available: one with a non-optimized base and one with a rounded base for better weight optimization.
Since it's not a very heavy system, it can be printed with 100% infill for greater rigidity. Supports aren't necessary, but I recommend using brim boards for the two joint pieces to prevent them from detaching from the build plate.
It's very important that the layer height isn't excessive to ensure better quality and prevent the pieces from getting stuck once the mechanism is assembled.
