Just purchased a v2.5 natechrony,very pleased with it.
Couple of questions.
Do they ever need calibrating?
Are the threads in the barrel connector 3d printed?
If so, do you know what settings are used?

Thanks

No - they dont need any calibrating, they're calibrated at factory - any drift over time would be negligible.

Yes the adapter threads are 3d printed, then started with a tap - they'll start easy & then be nice & snug, without damaging the threads on your barrel.
You're after the print settings? Is there an issue? do you need spares?

A LOT of tweaking to get them right, I undersize them and use a specific material that has some flex in it. That way they always go on nice & snug & dont damage the barrel threads. I then have to manually tap the first few threads of everyone one of them to avoid being cross threaded.
They're designed to be sacrificial - if you drop the rifle or hit a wall, the adapter will break. Leaving your rifle threads in tact, and your Chrony intact. Fork out £10 to go again. (does come with 2 adapters though.)
They're also tough as:
