3d printed wheels?

Here’s the next iteration, this time for the drive wheels, some integrated cooling features too, not sure if needed or not yet but at least it’ll be there.

I’m out of TPU for now so stand by if you wanna see if it breaks or not.

Looks good!

Is that wheel made out of nylon or TPU? Also, that’s a 5 inch hub, right? Reckon it would be hard to scale it up to fit these hubs? They apparently hold up well, it’d be cool to be able to print puncture-proof tires for them

:confused: Maybe, probably not that particular hub exactly, you’ll just need to redesign it for that hub, looks easy, no curves, just a hollow cylinder should work, add treads if you want em. Hub is PLA, tread is TPU, 5 inches finished. Still refining the design, the V1s had degradation problems compared to the V2s, think it was a temperature thing, will post more when I know more as I ride, overall still works great all things considered

I suppose that would be pretty simple to model, actually. Thanks for the update! Looking forward to hearing more
