How do you tell which platform you have?

My platform has a part number of 70832. it had one lug for mounting the fan. I found an stl for the V2 platform that is labeled "70832 platform r2.STL SeeMeCNC Platform r2" and when i looked at it it had three lugs. I am having a problem with my Axles walking out and i read the new platform fixed the problem. Just trying to figure out where i'm at so i can fix my problem.

Thanks
Brian

Brian, instead of replacing the effector platform, order a set of the new Acetal u-joints. They're slicker than a wet watermelon seed and work really, really well. No more binding on the metal shafts either.

I was looking at Trick Lasers Carbon fiber arms. Will these work as well? they sure would be cheaper.

Previous statement not worded well. What i meant was the u joints would be cheaper and i was asking if the u joints would work as well as the Carbon fiber arms. Anyone have experience with both?

$9 for a 12 pack of acetal U-Joints (all you need) vs $90 for the trick laser arms? My math puts the Acetal at the cheaper end....

I have a 12 pack on the way with the new V2 R2 platform. Thanks to JJ at SeeMeCNC. He sent me a platform and put the u joints I ordered in the box so I didn't have to pay shipping.
