First time using wood inserts. It’s kinda tough taking a drill to such a nice deck. I used a dab of gorilla glue when inserting. They seem strong, we’ll see.
Picked up a Focbox and Nano-x on cyber Monday. I have zero experience with a Vesc. I have used the 12s 120a esc on previous builds with no complaints. I was slightly intimidated by the Vesc, but it wasn’t hard at all.
I used Sugru to secure the connector from inside the enclosure. First time using Sugru, it’s a really cool product. I made a toothbrush holder with the excess.
It’s the 12s esc that sells. I think it’s also branded as sleeping lion. I’ve seen it mostly used on mountain board builds.
The vesc was new when I started my first build and the 12s esc was available. I didn’t have any complaints with it, so I used it again on my second build. Really looking forward to testing the vesc this time.
