Beschreibung
The Original VFO Knob of the KX2 does Not feel good when you try to Spin to a new frequency.
This remix of my QMX VFO Knob is a bit bigger to use the available space at the Front of the KX2 and contains a dimple for your finger.
I fits tight to the enoder shaft, but you could fix it with a Socket screw, if needed.
Additional needed Material:
2x M2.5 x 4mm socket screw (Madenschraube)
Knobs
Material: PETG
Layerhigh: 0,1 mm
Infill: 100%
Additional Settings: Ironing for nicer surface
Softgrip Ring
In order to put the flat part on the print bed, turn the model 180° around before slicing.
(otherwise it will put the roundet top of the ring onto the print bed.
Material: TPU
Layerhigh: 0,1 mm
Infill: 100%
Assembly:
First mount the hard inner knob-core to the radio and fix them with a M2.5x4 socket screw.
The holes are wide enough, a thread is not needed, the screw will do it alone, do not overtighten the screw. Next step is to slip the soft knurled TPU ring over the hard knob core.
