Air filter support Nitro Car Glow

thingiverse

You can buy this thing at any RC shop online but if you don't want to wait and save some money just print it!, same size and same consistence. You need a special TPU 85A grade filament, which is almost rubber and nearly the same consistence as the original air filter support. You can see the original one (on the pictures) to the right and the printed one on the left. As I were designing the part I made some improvements as raising a bit the internal spokes, so the sponge is lifted and air flow will be better. I added one more of this spokes as well. The small part that connects with the carburator has been improved make it stiffier and more secure. Just one advice. Printing this part in PLA you don't need support but printing in a so soft TPU support is needed. I added a picture of the parameters. Hope it helps and enjoy.
