This build is a remix of Rolumix’s motorized version which itself is a remix of CATIAV5FTW’s original.
I have made the following changes:
• Enclosed the front bearings fully
• Opened a window into the rear strut
• Added alignment features to items that were simply screwed together on flat faces
• Beefed up the internal motor coupling to suit our material
• Hollowed several parts out to suit our 2 material MJP printer
• Added another piece at the front for a nacelle nose. I have not actually made this piece as it’s too large for our printer. I’m going to have to devise a way to split it if I choose to make it, but the model is impressively large without it.
• Added modeled threads for screws directly into plastic.
The original models included shim rings at certain points next to the bearings to adjust the spacing during assembly to eliminate rubbing. I needed different shims to get ours to run freely. When it got damaged and I had to replace parts with new ones in a slightl
