Adapter to fit standard Tamiya type hexes to WPL Axles. The unit is my own design , in collaboration with Liam Sullivan (THYC RC). Recommended for wheels up to 80mm diameter, I advise using a washer with the standard wheel screw or replacing the screw with a M2 5mm flange head type. Primary use scale models and low speed crawlers. For High speed applications I recommend printing in PETG or Nylon
 
Printed in PLA initially on Creality Ender 3
 
**IMPORTANT** ensure that Esteps are calibrated and belts are tight, as tolerances on the part are critical. Do not exceed 37.5mm/sec print speed. I recommend using a raft for this print.
I used AMZ3D PLA, running at 210/70, but refer to your own brand of PLA for temp settings.
