So, just ordered my first 3D printer, and can't wait to get started. What brand/hardness do guys use for your TPU parts?

for my it does really good, maybe the aspect its not the best, but the pieces are functional. Here are some examples of things that i've printed:

some supports for the antennas:

mounts for the vtx antenna, gps and runcam split:

or a case for the wifi module of the runcam split:

My printer its a wanhao duplicator i3 and it comes with a 0,4mm nozzle, but today i replaced it with a 0,8mm one. with a bigger nozzle its supposed to print faster. But i think its a little big for small details. (the case for the wifi module of the runcam split was printed with the 0,8mm nozzle. the other pictures were printed with the 0,4mm)
