I probably have this file saved. Send me your email address and I will share it with you.

New material - PEBA. An alternative to TPU. It got many great properties, including withstanding cold temperatures @Bzhwindtalker.  
Several yt videos popped out.

I also recently saw this

May be interesting - strong and may even dampen vibrations and sound from motor

I recommended PBT before for low temperature and more. And I tried the PBT-CF version…  
It is strong - hard to break and only a little flexible, good for small parts, but for large parts there is a great wrapping problem. I guess that PEBA will not have wrapping problem, as it is similar to TPU.

But is it strong enough to hold a motor without flexing too much?

Ye, PEBA/TPU is best suited for the internal part of nano pod for example.  
But I did experiments with full tpu mounts and it appears to be possible to have enough rigidity if the mount is big enough. For example it may be an interesting experiment to convert nano pod to fully TPU.

Has anyone done an assist pod for 6384 for Armstrong mast A+ with wires to run internally I’m going to drill out run wires through mast for cleaner assist?
