From RepRap

In which category do the Traxxas ball joints (used in R/C models) fall and are they suitable for RepRap projects? --AndrewBCN (talk) 06:13, 26 December 2014 (PST)

Answering my own question: apparently under the "ball and socket joint" category. As for their suitability for RepRap projects, I have noticed various Delta printers are now using them, but I am still wondering whether heavy use does not pose any wear problems. I'll be using them soon in one of my projects so will report first hand on any issues. --AndrewBCN (talk) 18:38, 30 January 2015 (PST)
