I own 83mm FLYWHEEL and Caliber trucks. I’m trying to switch to chain drive after I saw this. So the package came and I tried it on. FIRST PIC, the sprocket sunk in too deep doesn’t allow space for the chain. SECOND pic, is for measurement. THIRD PIC, the sprocket for the wheel fit the truck TOO TIGHT. Literally no wiggle room.
I also got a 12t sprocket to reduce the
Radio to 12/27. To fit the truck you might have to do some sanding. I also wielded the motor mount to my trucks.
what type of wheel do you use? How did you get it to fit the trucks that you’re using? It would be really helpful if you post a close-up pic. @Cobber So the sprocket for the wheel would fit 8044 wheels is what you are saying?
@Nordle I only have PLA right now. You think it will suffice ?
I had some old 83mm wheels that had a flat back side therefore I was able to just attach the big sprocket to the wheel. I am also thinking of getting getting some 90mm flywheel.
Pla should hold as long as it doesn’t get too warm. It’s just s spacer, not much forces except pressure from both sides on that part. Anyways i would use petg if i could.
I have the exact setup on my board. I printed a part to fit in the wheel and make the back side flat to mount the wheel sprocket to. Not sure if you are still having trouble but I can link the file I used to fix it.
