I had used that remote for over a year in my previous build (which I haven’t posted up here )and I haven’t encountered any problem. Hopefully there won’t be in the future too.
Love to see how the hangers for the Jacob DD turn out. Personally doing a very similar conversion with my own set of Jacobs, and the good thing about this motor is that you can easily bore the stator hole out to 12mm. Replace the shitty grub screws with stakes that go right through the stator and into the axle. Hardest part is honestly machining the hanger piece that holds the 12mm axle.
So did you bore the black core in the hub?
I was going to make a connector but but then I decided to use the internal 8mm axle instead. How did you secure the motor?
The area between the copper and the bearing. Literally stake a screw right through. And while you’re at it, might as well add some halls. Jacobs don’t fair well with take off on BLDC…
The grub screws basically “lock” the stators to the hanger. They’re too small and easily sheer the holes they sit in, so I’m of the opinion that grub screws and inadequate for hub motors. Thus staking is much better.
Sad news
The mechanical part of the drive cannot be made to school reasons. But the project can still continues if I can get a carvon be or exo, as it is not a school project but a personal project.
I’m thinking of carvon speeddrive R, speeddrive xl or carvon exo, though I believe carvon be group buy is now ended.
Hopefully there are someone selling them
