    • Hello,
      You must have downloaded the left from Thingiverse.(Some people are confused and do not understand, both bicep are identical)
      You only need two times the right version for both arms.

      You will notice in the Gallery there is only the right version:

      • Thanks. This makes sense, both biceps are identical. Maybe I mirrored it myself in slicing software. Anyway it’s wrong. I’m going to throw them both away and print a new one. The correct one has some warping on the bottom and I think I need a good flat bottom to get good adhesion when this part is glued.

  • I’m a little confused with the elbow joint. Was there ever a left-hand version of elbowshaftgearv1 ? I seem to have printed both a left-hand and right-hand version.

    Do the gears for the elbox join go on the inside or the outside of the bicep? Or are they on the inside of one and the outside of the other, making both biceps identical?

    Can anyone suggest me for adjusting of base level to horizontal position? My position now is sloping as photos.

        • @juerg, this part is not motorised yet
          🙂
          @smattachai-p, You need to adjust the level of the top bolts on the threaded rods that are within the legs, if the torso leans a little backward, it’s okay. This will counterbalance, when the robot extends it’s arms forward.

        • as a second thought: before you purchase the T265 make sure you understand how you can implement your odometry for the device. I read through the article and had no idea at the end of how I would have to accomplished this. My cart uses an encoder attached to one of its wheels and produces around 3 ticks per mm of robot movement.

          • Hi Juerg, Many thanks, really appreciated. I will go through more thought process. well done and many thanks for pathfinding with the Realsense. I believe that in time this will become the optimal solution over the Orbbec or the Kinnect.

  • Gael,

    Would you provide me the details on what kind of flat cables to buy and what type red/black wire to purchase.

    For flat ribbons, I need to know the width and number of strands and length of cables.

    For wire, I need to know what gauge wire to use for electric hookup.

    I want to make sure I purchase the correct thing.

    Thanks!

    • Gael,

      I received my nerve board kits. Thanks!

      I see all the connectors are the same size, so does that mean that all the flat ribbon should be the same width, 7 pin?

      Thanks!

      • Hello,
        You need some 14 wire ribbon for the connectors.
        What I personnaly do, is buy some 30 wire ribbon and split it manually. It’s cheaper and easier to find on internet.
        10 gauge automotive(black,red) will fit tightly in the XT60 connectors.
        You can get some 12 gauge and will be fine for fitting as well.

      That is not a happy story. Dead PC…
      G-CODE is related to each printer settings.
      The slicer will generate a G-CODE according to a specific printer model size, I doubt getting someone else G-CODE, will work properly on your printer.

    • Hi Marcia, yes I found instructions on the web of how to remove the casing. Everyone appears to do something different. I am thinking two either 1 regular + 1 infra red or 1 telephoto and 1 wide angle

      • Which combination do you think is best? 1 regular + 1 infra red or 1 telephoto and 1 wide angle?
