These are the JS-1 Official BMS Racing Designed TPU Parts.
The release of these parts has come about due to a number of reasons that will benefit the whole community, from people who’ve been impacted by the global economic issues recently, through to allowing us to provide you with even more flexibility in terms of components available for the JS-1. Yes there are a heap more very specialised components for specific race formats and specialty flight applications, that are not practical to stock or produce large numbers of.
If you don’t have access to a 3D printer, please consider supporting us by purchasing these components through official JS-1 Resellers such as Team BlackSheep through to the manufacturer ImpulseRC.
Important Printing Information
There are a number of variations of TPU on the market, from very soft rubbery filament through to stiffer TPU, Much like SainSmart TPU etc you need to use the stiffer material for the JS-1
The TPU Parts on the JS-1 provide protection to not only the components in the roll cage but also the roll cage itself. It’s designed to absorb impact and hence you need to not only pay attention to the filament used but also the fill and and wall thickness used in your prints.
We use 0.4mm Print Head, using a wall thickness of 1.2mm with an In Fill density of 10%
You shouldn’t need any supports for printing these parts. You will need to print 1 of each STL with the exception of the TPU WasherESC_Spacer.stl, which you’ll require 4 plus parts depending on the ESC used and the amount of space you require for your build.
