I wound the spring and it is stuck. What can I do? Pushing the shutter button does nothing. (Do I have to power the camera with a battery for that? I thought it runs mechanically and the batt is only for the lightmeter.)
I am currently thinking of motorizing a krasnogorsk 2, so far my best Idea is to bolt the motor to the outside and attach it to the actual hand crank, possibly even bypass/unlink the the spring and governor so it doesn't spin them too.
Could you potentially explain how you wired the battery for the light meter to the terminals?

Chistian Moes Not the best idea. I will be releasing a video about my method some time.
Indeed, I like your idea way more. I subscribed to make sure I don't miss that video haha
Really interesting.Cheers!
Great video! But how do I remove the spring!!
how do you or what do you use to glue the front plate back on?
with regular glue
Cheers …👍👍🚀🚀🥁🥁
