Gimbal and switch guard for the Team BlackSheep Mambo radio controller.
The Pot sleeves (Knob covers) are 10mm on the 1st stl. and 10.7mm on the 2nd. These are meant to hold the switch protectors in place. if printing in tpu I would use the 1st stl. If you are worried about them being to tight (others have thought so, I like the 10mm myself, 1st stl.) then choose the 10.7mm sleeves, 2nd stl. Also if your printing in a rigid material you probably want the 2nd.
I printed this out of TPU. If you use a rigid filament the tolerances may be off, Although it looks like it should fit to me. I didn't have any rigid filament to test it with.
!!!!! You can use support blocks in Cura to block the areas you don't want supports. Ie... The holes in the switch protectors do not need support on my Ender 3!!!! Block supports with Cura in that area.
I needed to print supports for the flat areas that are up off of the build plate. 2.5 percent is the amount of support I used for this print. As it is TPU it was very difficult to remove this support material from under the larger flat areas. The supports in the switch area are insignificant and are very easy to remove, at this low percentage anyway. Some of the support structure is left behind on my prints. These areas are underneath on a functional piece, so I am able to not be bothered by it.
Good luck and thank you to the original creator of the gimbal guard portion of this model.
Honey potable version has the 10mm pot sleeves(May need to run soldiering iron inside to loosen a tiny bit) and it also has 15mm Stick sleeves.
A hidden gem! is the TBS Sheep gimbal guard. The stl. says it's broken when you load into a slicer, But it printed just fine for me. The crown and IB KING have been covered I think they are like .005 on the surface but won't show up in the print.
Newest edition: Hidden gem round over with 10.7 pot sleeves and 14mm stick end width.
