Axial SCX24 AX24 Driveshaft (updated)

Driveshaft for 1/24 scale crawler axial SCX24 and Probably AX24.  First pass so still a little rough but practical.  Designed this so I could flip my motor/transmission around for more weight forward.  Needed custom driveshaft lengths.I used a 0.25 nozzle on an MK3s+, though bigger nozzles might work fine.  This model is built into two pieces so they can be printed in optimal orientations; an internally splined tube and a yoke with matching splines.  The holes in the yoke are undersized and need to be drilled out a little to fit the OEM spider. I printed with PETG though PLA should be fine.  I printed the tube standing upright with a brim with 0 spacing to the model.  The yoke I printed horizontally using tree supports.  The tube has a sliding fit with OEM splined yokes, but its a snug fit with the printed yoke (Snug Version).  For a sliding version I have created a “loose” version of the yoke end, or you can use one OEM yoke with splines to keep the extending action.The tube is at 44 millimeters I will try generate longer sizes but you should be able to scale in the axial direction to produce any size you need.  The tube can also be cut down to shorten easily.
