Viper1970 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 May be you could put something like a big nail or something else out of metall or steel inside the lever shaft. I do this at my selfprinted coolies, cause their axis break very fast. I do a drilling inside the shaft (already while constructing them in 3D) and after printing I drill it out a bit, so that the nail exactly fits inside the shaft.

Thanatos31 Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 I swear … another 30hour print later. the standard supports worked a lot better than the tree supports (with which I had great succes on other prints in the past) but now, one wrong move , and I broke all the filigrane top of the housing - so frustrating I’ll try to glue it for now… https://ibb.co/w770kwM Come fly with us : https://discord.gg/tawdcs TAW CJTF 13 - EU TZ MilSim Squadron Ryzen 5 5600X | 32GB DDR4 3733| ASUS Radeon RX 6700 XT | ASrock B550 Phantom Gaming 4 | HP Reverb G2 | Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle , F16 & F18 grips , TFRP Rudders | Win 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bog9y Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Hi guys, I want to reprint this mod but to a bigger scale and use sensors for the angle deflection. I suck at Fusion 360. I am trying to split the nozzle lever in half at the point where the handle connects but have no idea how to do it in F360. I tried using the "split body" option but it won't let me select the handle as the body to split. Any ideas how to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No1sonuk Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I've not looked at the files, but are you trying to do it with the right component active? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, I downloaded the files and tried splitting what I thought you were trying and it worked. Can you show a picture of what you want to split? Also, you need a "tool" like a plane to split the body, and need to make sure you select the right one in the function's dialogue box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird I can select the body normally but when I click on SPLIT BODY it won't let me select it. I just managed it OK. Here's how I did it. First, make an offset plane from the construction menu. Place it on the face indicated by the arrow with zero offset. Next, select "Split body" from the modify menu. Select "Body to Split", and then click on "Schubhebel" from the list on the left - hovering over the word should highlight the body. Select "Splitting tool(s)", then the plane made earlier, then "OK". Done. The original "Schubhebel" is still there, but it's only the bottom part. The top part is now "Schubhebel (1)" added to the bottom of the list. AND, I just saw you seem to be working on a different file. Did you just download the STLs? The AV8 LEVER v76.f3z file is a Fusion360 archive format, so importing that creates a native F360 project with all the parts in it. Try that.

Bog9y Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) Has anybody here tried to fit this nozzle mod onto the WinWing Orion throttle? The throttles are almost identical in height but obviously the bottom is different, just wondering if the mod can be amended to work with the Orion?

I accidentally bumped into mine and it broke, tried to amend the STL file in Fusion 360 to make the lever thicker but I don't know how to do it. Any ideas? Print orientation also makes a difference. A long object printed sideways will have vastly better tensile strength than one printed vertically - layer adhesion is the weak point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
