The ultimate printer I can recommend is the Bambu Labs X1 carbon with AMS or P1P if you have deep pockets. ($1200). It's a massive leap forward in 3D printing, with excellent quality and impressive speeds. It's pretty much press print and go as the software and hardware do the calibration before each print.

Welcome to the third part of our 5-series build guide! Please note that the MTU build guides 1-5 are not version numbers but a single build guide divided into smaller sections.

You must gather all the necessary parts listed across the 5 Build pages to complete this build. Unfortunately, there are too many parts to fit on a single page, so we had to limit it to 20 parts per page.
In my opinion, this design surpasses the previous throttle designs, and I highly recommend it over V3. Keeping it simple without motorization is sufficient, as the basic controls offer an awesome feel and operation. It is a fully 3D printed design that comes with motorised Trim Wheels, Throttle levers, speed brake, parking brake, and Trim indicators.
Please note that this design requires a print size of 300mm x 300mm. However, if your machine has a build bed of 220 x 220mm, there is an available smaller print mod that you can use.
