Very interested in this
Everything except pictures!
figuring out the arduino code now. the 3d model is a remix of the sparkle from @okp. .96” OLED with telemetry
What makes you use 8mm instead of 4-5mm?
less chance of them coming apart. waaaaaay easier to solder. also, they’re actually smaller than 5.5mm in length
Dont you need a fucking blowtorch to heat them up? 5.5mm takes some time for me at 100w (bad iron i guess). I won’t even think of trying to heat up 8mm
nah. I do it with a super cheapo 80w weller. heats them up super easy after only about 5 minutes of warming up the iron
Why is there black spots on your bullet connector did you bring out the lighter
that would be the reflection of the leather chair i took those on
i’d rather we didn’t talk about this in my build thread
I also have some 1980s fancy quality 100w iron gun and it works great for normal stuff but when i need to solder some 6mm sq. wire I bring out the big guns, a propane gas tank and https://www.stortz.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/perkeokit.jpg im done with this electrical bullshit lol
Thats serious. 0awg wire next Lol
Its hard to solder precisely with this, heat somehow escapes so fast from the solder on my cheapy wires lol
So I got to use this for like battery cables, im still pissed from afternoon, couldn’t solder p- on my bms for like a half hour
update! 1 (maybe 2) vescs will be on there way back to me (thanks @scepterr )
battery is all wired, just waiting on heatshrink from LHB
Not bad for a senior citizen
also ordered some pvc to make a dual vesc mount so i can forget about hot glue
sooo… getting some alu and all supplies for heatsink construction on Monday. in the meantime ive been working on yet another project
so yea. that is a completely square hangar (full custom) with mounts (fully custom) DUAL SK3 6374’s (6384) and a paris baseplate. swappable axles, yadaa yadaa yadaa. motor mount clamps will be made with titanium. this is by no means a finished product either.
