I tend to address problems once they happen at least once, otherwise overengineering happens fast. I heard of kill switch on tow boogies as they can start going away full speed.

There are 2 bolts securing the plate to the hub, if I understand what you mean correctly (?)

would you mind sharing your 5085 pod with me?
I would love to use your easy to setup solutions.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,

of course, 3D design POD 5085 flipsky gong 14mm TPU - Tinkercad

Did you print the rubber band to fix it to the mast from TPU or where did you get it from. It seems to be only 15mm wide. The one I use for the 6384 pod (from ali express) is 20mm wide, so it won’t fit. I could print one from TPU but those are not as elastic as those from “rubber”.

I cut the 20mm rubber to 15mm width with a cutter, works well :slight_smile:

(you’re right TPU printed is not elastic enough )

Thanks, after I posted the question, Iwas thinking to do the same. I have some spare ones to cut.
I converted the pod, lid and the plugs from stl to step as I could not transfer them to fusion with the built in thinkercad export feature. It is not perfect but acceptable quality in Fusion360. I need to print it and see if it fits. The step files are nice to have if somethings needs to be adapted, especially the TPU insert for the mast. If that’s ok, I can share it after I test printed it.

Try printing with PEBA. It has a much higher modulus of elasticity than TPU.

72

In the end I printed the strap in TPU85A, the cut to width rubber strap was too weak. See here: Daniels assist (3rd build) - #16 by sat_be

Thanks for sharing - great design and build!
Do you find those connects are ok? I just looked them up and found they are only rated at 45A.

@Airtimeasto Any chance you can share the FD props - and if you found a hub?

Also @foilstate your TinkerCad files seem to be not available - do you have them somewhere else now?

Thanks

Yes those connectors have been working great, lots of friends using them at higher amps (80+A) without issues

Make sure you create a tinkercad account to be able to see the files, it should be there

@nicolasLGM Any chance you can you share your prop files ?
I’ve been printing mine using an SLA printer - great results - just prob not the most efficient design. I have read the FD ones are much more efficient.
Thanks

I don’t have file I have a friend that prints them and he won’t share files for those. I bought the props off him
