Re: Do you use 3d printed mounts?
We have been using 3d printed parts for a variety of things for the last 3 years.
Speed controller mounts, custom encoder and potentiometer mounts, camera mounts etc. It allows us to custom design mounts for relatively low stress areas. That said, we have also printed pinions for transmissions that worked surprisingly well! Those were replaced with steel pinions for competition, but they didn't fail on their own.
