Hello guys, I’m designing an enclosure for the Jet Spud and I need some feedback to fnish the design.
Would you rather have an enclosure for reverse mount motors or enclosure-side motor mounts? Take into consideration the reductio of wheelbase in case the enclosure is in the inwards position.
Would you rather have a light-slim enclosure or a double stacked cells one
Would you like a division between the cells and electronics or just big space for everything
Would you mount ESCapes (taller enbclosure) or regular FocBoxes/DIY VESCs (slimmer enclosure)
I would like one that allows inward motor mounting as I think it takes the look away from the board with motors mounted in reverse. Also, double stack tickles my feathers a little more and dosnt add that much height, and it would allow the escape. Oh yeah, and one big pocket
If you could make something like the one made by Unik but a bit thicker in the middle where it lowers a bit and maybe a few cm higher for the vesc part ill be your first customer for them if i have the money!
So 8 cells could fit in parallel for a total of 176mm (6.93") my enclosure is 185mm wide, you could also fit 10 18650 cells instead with just glue and some fish paper.
Following with interest Definitely I will think about the double stack,dl due to the high of my battery pack with BMS. If you need an idea for the size I designed a bigger version of the Unik’s enclosure. You can find it here DIY Skateboard Spud Enclosure found on #Thingiversehttps://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2867594 (although I need to gain a bit of height by using two 3mm layers of gasket around the edges) Super curious to see the final result.
