Can you buy mounting hardware separately?

Hi,

I just have a quick question - can you buy or would it be possible to get the mounting hardware separately?

I bought a pixycam last year thinking I could use it with my pixycam adapter from Mindsensors.com or directly with my LEGO Mindstorms.

I forgot the mounting kits were different though and just bought the regular version instead of the LEGO one.
It didn’t work very well with the adapter, but seems to work fine directly with my EV3. I’m just having a little trouble mounting it using the other hardware.

If you could please let me know, I would really appreciate it.

Hi,

Similar question for Pixy2. I bought the original Pixy2 and have since bought the Pixy2 LEGO cable but noticed the following on https://docs.pixycam.com/wiki/doku.php?id=wiki:v2:mounting_pixy_with_lego:

This guide is intended for those who purchased Pixy2 for LEGO. The hardware bag that comes with Pixy2 for LEGO is slightly different, so you may have problems with this guide if you purchased a regular Pixy2.

The main issue appears to be the “long fastener”. So I can track down this separately without trial-and-error, do you have the details on size and thread? Is it a 4-40 screw with 1/2" length?

Regards,

Grant

Hey Grant, just about - here’s the part: https://www.olander.com/default.aspx?page=item%20detail&itemcode=4C37PPMZR

4-40 x 3/8" screw. It is long enough to attach Pixy2 to Lego bricks.
