I have created a 3D-printed core magnet kit for the Tengyun V1, which works quite well in increasing stability. It should also work on the V2,which has a similar feet and core mechanism.
Right now, the strength is very similar to the CH WRM's core magnets, and is installed similarly. However, the core magnets will have 8 parts to be superglued on.
I'm planning on producing and selling some kits, but want to know the demand for them before making them, as well as the type and strength of magnets. Ideas and constructive criticism are welcome.
 
I suggest you consider this. The new Dayan Guhong Pro M is so good and so cheap, and it has ball core already, you may have a problem selling a whole lot of your kit. This new Guhong is definitely not as quiet as the Tengyun V1 but otherwise a better cube by any measure IMO.

Perhaps you should look at the QiYi M Pro instead. I found this even lower cost cube really good and I suspect it may rival the new Guhong, if it could have core magnets. It has 11 tension settings, and therefore more customisable than the Tengyun or Guhongs. Another selling point for the QiYi M Pro is that it has a black version, the only new cube that is still released in black.
