✅ - working on motorizing this. Geared arms not coming out right.

What can I do to ensure these gears print well I’ve tried a few settings and showing it down. No luck.

Z hop was set to 0.4 because it was dragging on print. Slow speed and superior quality option on cura

My gears weren’t coming out very well also. They were very hard to put onto the servo and would strip after testing a few times. I scrapped that and modified the arms to utilize the included horns from the servos. Much better fit

Some modellers have different arms. One with the gear built in and one that has the slot for the horn

so would you say use the arms that come with the servo and the standard arm that comes with crashworks MK85 set? then fix the servos included braket to the arm somehow?

That’s the route I would take. CA glue the arms that come with the servos into the standard crashworks arm. They have a file without the built in gear correct?

But some people have success with the built in gears. So both options are fine just need to pick one that will work for you

My issue is the gears aren’t prominent. Guess I’ll know tomorrow when my MG90s come in

Printing both then trial and error
