Crowtail – Tilt Switch 2.0

The Crowtail – Tilt Switch is a sensor to detect the station of forwards. It outputs logic LOW in the Horizontal direction and logic HIHG in the vertical direction. Inside the tilt, switch is a pair of balls that make contact with the pins when in the case of vertical. Tilt the case over and the balls don’t touch, thus not making a connection.
