This type of bracket was recommended to me to help minimize damage to the rear fender of my Traxxas Maxx v2. I couldn't find a free print file online for one and didn't want to purchase one, so I designed my own. The bracket lightly sits on the rear bumper so that the rear body plastic won't bend down too much during a crash and crack.
I printed with the following settings using regular PLA (might not be the best material choice - a TPU with a little flex might be best):
0.2 mm layer height
5 wall loops
60% gyroid infill
For some asthetics I also did:
ironing on top surfaces with a speed of 50 mm/s and flow of 40%
wall print order of inner/outer/inner
*note these settings were not applied to the sample images shown above*
A .3mf file is also available with all of these settings.
NOTE: You need to use longer screws to attach the bracket. The bracket will come off in a crash using the stock screws. They aren't long enough to get a good grip. I used M3x12 screws and have had no issues.
If you print this, please take a picture and add a make for others to see - it helps!
