Gimbalotl Cam
Print Profile(1)

Description
I'm a fan of Ztoundas' gimbal design, dubbed the ‘Gimbalotl’, but after building it I found the cams to be too soft and barely capable of supporting the weight of my Warthog grip. I took the opportunity to learn how to design my own cam profiles and came up with this design. It has a much harder center and extended levers for mounting the springs. The springs I used are 0.8x8x30mm extension springs, and mount using the extra M4 screws and sleeve nuts as outlined on the Gimbalotl Printables page: https://www.printables.com/model/553860-the-gimbalotl-a-3-axis-joystick-gimbal. I've included a step file and an f3d file in case you would like to make your own modifications to suit your taste.
If you're curious how I made this, I followed this process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inSaZusCAq4. The sketch should be set up already in the fusion file I uploaded, so adjustments should be relatively straight forward!
