Remix of Jerky_FPV Belt tensioners but using M3 hardware and M3 set screws. Designed to be adjusted without tools once installed. 

Hardware needed:

  • 6x M3 heat inserts M3x5x4
  • 4x M3 x 14 for installing on Plus 4 (up to 16mm will work but 12mm wont) 
  • 2x M3 x 30 for tensioner adjustment (can run smaller up to 20mm i think)

     

Print using ABS/ASA or stronger material, i used 5 walls and 40% infill, might need to adjust scale to 101% to account for shrinkage depending on the material printed.
