Units inconsistent in accessory guide

Closed this issue · 1 comments

The accessory guide mechanical section uses metric screws, metric weights and imperial lengths. All units should be SI (metric) - though can be quoted in "imperial" also.

The Accessory Bay is considered to be the area behind the gimbal under the Solo that does not interfere with the 3DR Gimbal. It is roughly 7.5 cm wide x 13.5 cm long x 10 cm deep.

Maximum payload of the system is 700g, the 3DR Gimbal + GoPro weigh approximately 390g, leaving 310g for accessories that are meant to be used with the 3DR Gimbal.

The Accessory Bay hole pattern is M2 screws in a 63mm x 41mm rectangular pattern. Ensure that the rectangle is not intersected by the path of the gimbal.

Note, the text here is definitely wrong "1.655" x 1.15"" since 1.655" x 1.15" is 42.03mm x 29.2mm. However the diagram states that the pattern is 63mm by 41mm.

This will be fixed by #250
