PostProduced many calibration widgets before proper prints and found that on the Bambu P1S, to get the ATK loose fit spec it needed +.05 hole compensation to fit the outside of the bearing but also +.03 (not minus) to fit the inside.
Not a case of "heavily"… -

PostThanks for the info. Could well be a calibration issue actually as torquing the screws heavily should never be needed. -

Marked Administrator’s post in the thread Shattering Roll Pin Retain - Trying to print in resin as the best answer.Best AnswerAhhh, resin. I just don't think it has the strength for this part. Do you have an FDM printer too? If it's just for this part someone in the community might print a few small parts for you. It could explain your difficulties with the screw thread too.

Commented on the image P-51D Pedestal Build.Comment (Image/Video)This component has been the holy grail in my flight sim life dreams. I even had original WWII blue prints models made for some of the parts previous but never got it done. Making this authntikit version now and very inspired by your build ! -

Reacted with to the review Perfect companion for the P51 pedestal for the file P-51D Mustang Throttle.Reaction (File Review)The throttle like the pedestal is a charm to print and assemble. It is a llitle bit trickier to assemble than the pedestal but not too hard. For VR is much more inmersive to have a device closer to the real thing than a generic throttle. -

Reacted with to the review One of the coolest things I have printed for the file P-51D Mustang Pedestal.Reaction (File Review)Easy to print, I enjoyed very much the whole assembly process, now it is time to enjoy it with DCS. Now it is easier to locate all the trim wheels, flap and landing gear levers when using VR. -

Replied to the thread Throttle Jitter.PostHow much does it jump? Sometimes it's actually very tiny but the animation seems to exagerate. If you run joy.cpl and do Settings > calibrate and display raw data you'll get a sense of how much variation there is. It should really range only +/- 2 or 3… -

Replied to the thread Throttle Jitter.PostI have this in my Spitfire build. Of the 3 quadrant inputs, only the throttle/Boost lever jumps around. Mixture and Prop speed are solid. I thought it might be cross talk from the magnets on the 2 outside mags interfering with the central maghall. they…
