Traxxas Slash Pinion and Spur Gears (46p) with 3d Files

thingiverse

Cumulative Update: uploaded all my gear 3D files, finally completing a project that took weeks to complete! Please take a moment to LIKE or even better, COMMENT on this upload! This design features a Traxxas 46P 76-tooth spur gear, among others and pinions, which I use for my Slash 2WD RC car. This high-quality, accurately measured 20th generation design is currently my go-to racing setup and prints well even on my basic 3D printer. Replacing the stock 86-tooth gear added about 3-5 mph to my speed. To avoid stripping it, I ease into the throttle and loosen the clutch to half a turn out when using this gear. It does make some noise. If you have any suggestions or requests, please let me know! This was my first upload to this site, so your support would mean a lot - give me a like!

Print Settings: Printer: XYZ Da Vinci Mini Rafts: None Supports: None Resolution: High is best, medium usually okay Infill: Medium Density Notes: For my print bed on the XYZ printer, I'm currently using carpet tape - essentially double-sided and very sticky tape. Before printing, I use the leveling tool to remove the waxy paper backing. This design prints well with PLA; adjustments might be needed for other filaments. Post-Printing: Clean it up if necessary After the gear prints, I carefully use pointy scissors to scrape and ream out the holes, making them smooth. How I Designed This: Learned a new tool I learned how to use Autodesk Inventor just to make this gear. There's a circle feature where you design one tooth and it replicates a specified number of teeth around the circle. I can easily modify this for any number of teeth
