FIMI X8SE battery loading connector cover / protector

thingiverse

This is a straightforward protector for the FIMI X8SE battery loading connector, designed to safeguard against damage or bending (and dirt accumulation) when storing the loader in a bag. Essentially, it's a compact box with two snap clasps at its extremities. For optimal installation, these snaps should be positioned on either side of the protector. The design allows for printing without support structures. However, to ensure proper flexibility for the pins, it's crucial to use a filament that can accommodate some degree of flex. I personally utilized ABS with great success, but PLA might prove too rigid; if you do decide to try PLA, your mileage may vary. Based on my experience, ABS or PETG filaments work best for this project. To enhance the protector's strength, it's recommended to use 3 or more perimeter layers during the printing process.
