Just had some dremel time.
So good to have one at home. Just can recommend everybody to have one at home.
You never know when you gonna need it…
Got the nut off quite easy…and way much more fast as I thought.
Unfortunately the thread of the truck totally fucked still don’t understand how it could come so far. The trucks where like new and I didn’t tighten the nut too much.
Does anybody know if there is a way to recut the thread?
I don’t have big hopes, also not to only replace the shaft as the shaft should be pressed inside the truck and I don’t have the tools to get it out.
If there is a way to fix it, i would appreciate to get some idea!
For inner threads I already made it.
For outer threads I‘m not sure about which diameter to choose.
Need to read a bit about it and look what a set for my need will cost
I had the same problem with one of mine
If you have a look a my build, I had to pull the axle out and make a new one.
Have a chat to Trampa and see what they say about it.
Can you write me the link to your build?
Interested how you got the shaft out.
I already have a new hanger.
The old one i will try to cut a new smaller thread to have it as back up hanger laying at home.
Didn´t updated this here for a while so let´s get together what happened in the last weeks.
I orderd a new infinity hanger and one more set of superstar rims.
chrome/black to hold it a bit more decent.
When the hanger arrived I realized that they come without plastic inserts and nuts …totally overseen that… unfortunatelly I also couldn´t find the right size of nuts in any of the hardware shops close to my home.
So no way around to order and wait another 1,5 week for the missing parts…
meanwhile the APS motors arrived after 2,5 month backorder waiting and 3 weeks UPS document trouble war…
the problem with it, the damn order wasn´t complete… I ordered 4 motors but they sent only 2…
nevermind, I opened the motors and sealed the sensors like usual.
I could fix the one 6384 motor with the replacement bell which they sent me.
Till the coating got dry I used my old set up to have some first jumps in the park
But than it was time to change to dual 6384 170kV and chains
I very much like the setup and the sound of the chains.
The torque is nicer with 170kV instead of 190kV.
Definitly noticable. But I also lose about 2km range out of my 5ah Lipo packs, which probably comes with the more agressive riding and the chains them self too.
In the last week weather became better and I startet to adjust my motor and bat max values.
I increased slowly the values till I reached now 50a bat max 80a motor max on each foxbox.
The temp of the focboxes max out at 55degrees and the motors at 65degrees. The max bat current I reached till now was 35a for each focbox.
I still wait for the two missing motors to arrive.
So for now now quad drive. Probably also not in the next weeks as I like the “light” setup and enjoy to practice more jumping.
I´m looking now to get some more Lipos to get more range.
I have two sets of 5ah lipos which last each about 30min, than I need to swap them.
I also added some lights under the board
I´m sure they will not last long as I hit a lot of stones and wood, but it becomes very fast dark already and my front light´s still not arrived.
Let´s see, for now it works and I like the look…
I finally came back to cut some videos (before I cut mainly vacation videos…)
I hope I can improve my riding and video cutting skills in future and I hope you guys will like them too.
Here one last short ride in my park close to home
no no, the dog was close to bite off my leg…
always try to drive as max polite as posible along people on my way, but the dogs are not so easy to handle
those are 5V LEDs. They work with a USB and a small power bar which I just added on the velcron stripe of my deck.
I have a step down converter laying around too, but as it is not the final stage of the build I was to lazy to integrate it in my Lipo set up.
I have mixed feelings about the APS motors.
I a little bit lost the trust in the hold of the magnets when one of them became lose or broke during motor detection…first need to get back to it.
I realized that from about 40km/h the sound they make change to some kind of high screeming noice. Till now I couldn´t locate if it´s only one or both motors and if it´s just there own frequenz which lead to it, or if there is a lose winding, magnet or screw.
still don’t understand how it could come so far. The trucks where like new and I didn’t tighten the nut too much.
no egg trucks today sir!
