Starling 2 Max C28 + ToF Upgrade – Request for Front Mount 3D Model
-
Hello,
We recently purchased a Starling 2 Max C28 configuration, which did not include the ToF sensor, together with a separate ToF Sensor Kit. At the time of purchase, the C29 configuration was not available, so this was the only way for us to obtain the platform and the ToF sensor.
We are now trying to install the ToF sensor and have noticed that the C29 version appears to use a different front nose/mounting piece that provides the necessary space and mounting points for the ToF cameras. The front piece on our C28 configuration is different and does not seem to accommodate the ToF assembly.
Would it be possible to obtain the 3D model (STL, STEP, or another CAD format) of the front mounting piece used on the C29 version? We have access to 3D printing and would be happy to manufacture the part ourselves.
We are based in Spain, so ordering and shipping a small plastic component from the United States would be relatively costly and time-consuming. Having access to the design file would allow us to complete the upgrade locally.
I can provide photos of our current configuration and the ToF kit if that would be helpful.
Thank you very much for your assistance.

Yes, please check the downloads section. C26 , C27 come with TOF sensors, so the CAD model for those variants should contain the correct front camera mount (please let us know if you have an issue finding it).
Also, we do sell a replacement plastics kit for Starling 2 Max (https://www.modalai.com/products/starling-2-max-replacement-parts) but it is not clear which front camera mount it has.. checking..

Thank you both for your help!
The CAD files from the downloads section were exactly what we needed. We printed the front camera mount from the C26/C27 model, installed the ToF sensor on our Starling 2 Max C28, and everything worked perfectly.
We have already completed some initial tests, and the ToF sensor is working as expected.
Thanks again for the quick support!

You are welcome! By the way the Starling 2 Max plastics kit (linked above) contains both types of front camera mounts (with and without the TOF sensor).
