Default 3D Printed Ascender Parts

Check out the servo winch bumper mount for the Ascender. The K10, and similar models, will allow the use of the stock bumper. The winch mount holds a standard size servo.







Check out my signature for more info. Feel free to PM orders as well.

I'd like to see more battery plate options for the Ascender... JC Auto Designs has been on a break since the first week of November.

If you check my store, you will find that I have created some sliders with battery strap locations. That may be what you're looking for.





Same design, just with battery slots.

Those are nicely done, however I'm looking for a front and center mount for a single battery - not running dual packs, but with many of us running 550-sized motors (which bump up against the battery, even a shorty pack) or wishing for transverse full-length pack usage, another option would be excellent.

There a couple of existing options that take slightly differing paths to this, one is JC Auto Design - on hiatus because of a move until who knows, and BP Custom Chassis. I just went with the latter for my battery tray. I went for the simpler model, originally designed for the SCX10.

I've seen a horizontal mounted battery. I'll see what I can come up with.
Appreciate the input.

Looking into this. I need to acquire a leafspring kit as I have no trucks with leaf springs.
Perhaps a future item for sale.
