Long overdue introduction for this yoyo!
We’ve tagged @TryCatchThrow as the designer multiple times. Beyond a file name of “unresponsive yoyo” and revision number it was an unnamed design. Naturally we wanted to give it one for our personal release and sale of them.
With Keith’s approval we’ve decided to call it the Dipteran. Which is anything in the fly or two wing species group.
There might be future ideas for this design with some hardware changes. So all the better we at least had a name figured out.
Probably within the first week of having our printer we tried to print the first Dipteran(the orange and green from this post, not for sale).
No clue on settings, it was left on the default 15% infill and we ended up with a ridiculously light yoyo. To be able to print something and have it play was such an exciting moment for us either way.
We’d consider this first run our larval stage in the world of 3D printing(another reason for the gummy worms theme). For the ones we are selling we increased the weight to just under 65 grams.
There were still some slight experiments/setting changes among them. Including the counterweights these come with. Some are our original designs, mostly prototype stages. Others are not our own design but scaled down to the right size and weight. Happy to share any of them if anyone wants them for personal use to print themselves. As they are not final designs some may not be the best weight set up or benefit from an addition of bead if you have issues with string slipping through.
