A ureteroscope system including a handpiece, a catheter, and a control system is described. The handpiece having a proximal end region, a distal end region opposite to the proximal end region, and an interior region. The catheter extends from the distal end region of the handpiece, and includes an active bend portion distal to the handpiece. The control system includes a sensor positioned in the interior region of the handpiece and configured to detect movement of the handpiece. The control system includes a motor positioned in the interior region of the handpiece and operably coupled to the sensor effective to activate the motor when the sensor detects movement of the handpiece. The ureteroscope system includes one or more wires secured to the active bend portion of the catheter and adjustable responsive to activation of the motor effective to at least partially bend the active bend portion of the catheter.
