Carvon Discussion

10mm I believe.

Mine (exo ig backer, so don’t quote me for store bought TDs) came with Surf-rodz Precision

I bought some Seismic Tektons, too.

Need 10mm bearings for TorqueDrives.

XLs also need 10mm bearings.

Hey jerry

thanks for the reply. Do they come with bearings or should i order some?

i ordered the torquedrive on its own.

Thanks for the news. Is it possible to add a battery percentage indicator (maybe as an option)? There is an usb connector ?(for the backers you told that we will have shredlights,so it will possible to connect with usb on the battery?) Thanks

That’s gives me an idea for a really nice way to build a nonflex pack.

25mm wide .20mm nickel for two-row series+parallel, fold over style. Leave a little excess to solder on the balance lead. Very even load sharing, very little dicking around.

Thanks @LEVer @psychotiller!

Big thanks for all the work you are putting in …reading through your responses and feedback is great and give huuuuuge confidence in Carvon and these EXO 's. shit, Long-haired boy, psychotiller, mikenopolis, ChrisC @ abec …they oughta be called Voltron boards.

It came with bearings attached on the axle already. Please install them in same order.

The remote has indicator for the battery fuel. No need for gauge on the enclosure.

There is no usb connector. The ShredLights have their own little battery and usb port that you charge to wall outlet, much like your phones.

He is personally machining this at ABEC 11 just so that we can get this XL project moving and done. Thank you Dave!

Ok, perfect. Can you give the model of the remote ?

It’s the standard koowheel remote

The EXOs are not vesc?

Gen 2 Koowheel remote, works perfectly with their Gen 2 ESC.

Nope, never was. Always wanted to offer a non-vesc board with a solid-connecting remote. Just get-up and go, no messing around.

And now with the 30Q cells and higher discharge BMS, it actually has more startup torque and range. Did not record top speed but it’s up there. Been riding it all afternoon yesterday and I’m impressed. It’s definitely a CARVON now.

All good!

Thanks In the remote’s datasheet it’s told that led will be green between 100% and 40%,Red between 40% and 12,5% and blink Red when <12,5%. It’s ok but I think it’s not too accurate / precise. It’s possible to add an indicator like this ? s-l1000

Reminder: I do NOT work for CarvOn

Although I understand people wanting a LCD indicator on the board and VESC…first,the IGG EXO was not at the price point of using dual VESCs. It was priced at modifying Koowheels. with the upgraded battery and having to essentially toss the KW batteries there is a loss of money.

Secondly, you can probably add this in yourself? not 100% sure where the wire leads would need to go on the KW ESC though. Lets not make the delay longer by asking for more parts to arrive and having to dremel holes and solder two wires. The 30Q battery is already a great upgrade.

It was only a question so take it easy. ( and I suggested that this could be an option) And after a delivery delay of several months I think that backers are not a week away to have a product that is more practical. What do you think?
