The odometry pod measures just 41 x 41 mm, with special thanks to the custom encoder which is used.
The pod has 16.5mm of vertical travel, measuring 58 mm in height at full compression and 74.5mm at full extension.
Optii Odometry should be mounted such that the top of the mounting plate is 69 - 75mm above the floor, the optimal height is 72mm. This means that mounting Optii Odometry on a strafer chassis is as simple as bolting it inside the U-channel in your desired orientation, then you’re ready to go.
STEP Files for Optii Odometry are available on my website.
Optii Odometry is currently available for pre-order and is scheduled to go on sale on the 9th of October. I will have express shipping options available so you can receive your orders as soon as possible.
In addition to the odometry pod, I have a hardware kit for linear odometry for sale in case you need spares or would like to develop your own linear odometry pod but get all the hardware in one spot.

Documentation
First of all, I’m really excited to announce that I’ve developed documentation to go along with Optii Odometry. This includes all the specifications as well as guides and tips for mounting, wiring, springing and more. You can find the documentation at the link below: Optii Odometry Documentation
This documentation will also be linked on the Optii Odometry product page. If you want to see anything else get included in the documentation, feel free to let me know.
Email Address
I’ve also switched email addresses so if you need to contact me, you can now email me at [email protected]
Mounting Plate
The mounting plate of Optii Odometry was increased from 6.35mm thickness to 7.5mm quite a while ago, but I never got around to posting pics. Here’s a nice pic of a freshly made plate. This thicker plate ensures that you will never have problems with bending and further increases the rigidity of the mounting.
Stickers
Of course, the most important thing, new stickers! Some of you may have noticed that you had some nice new transparent stickers in your orders recently. These now come with Optii Odometry and can also be bought separately. Optii Transparent Stickers
