Recently we worked with the Irish Sailing Association at their Youth Pathway event held at Ballyholme Yacht Club. The event was one of the largest we have covered yet with racing over 5 fleets and 3 race courses. Fleets included Toppers, Optimists, Laser 4.7s, Laser Radials and 420s. As the ISA are currently working on building their social media channels, we decided that opting for several short videos would be most suited to their needs. We decided that filming would only be needed for one day, to allow us to get the content we required. We produced an overall video to release first, along with a short teaser for Instagram. We then worked and made a short 40-60 second video for each class. We also have the option to use the content to promote future events for the ISA
The servo is hooked up to the Arduino via pin 9. I've uploaded one of the example sketches you get with Arduino ISP called 'Servo Sweep'. The servo is powered by a 24 volt rough DC supply as you can see in the video. The 20mm steel boss was machined and bored out concentrically to 8.0 mm. A 5.0 mm hole was drilled in the side of the boss and tapped to take an M6 grub screw. The boss was welded into a piece of 1/8 inch steel plate to make the servo arm.
