Sounds good @delta_19 what BMS will you use? How do you plan to connect the cells (solder or spot-weld)?
I’m also curious about the watt meter and how you’ll integrate it, is there an advantage to this one over one of the volt meters or coulometers that others are using?
@treenutter no bms using sleds like before, they work and let me remove dead cells. the wattmeter is the same as a coulometer really its just all contained in to one unit.
so the plan, the plan for my board, the one made just for this board, the board plan.
so i live on a 48 hour day world thats why im posting now…
rear single drive motor with a custom battery and TB ESC/VESC. the plan is to plane a flat spot on the board and glue on the vape sleds then make a lid with a piece of sheet metal to help get some of the heat off. from there attach the esc and mount the trucks and motors on some shock absorbers. the wattmeter isnt permanent so im just going to make a quick disconnect for it and longer leads.
from what they told me they are fine tuning the firmware now so i think that means that there will be firmware on it but, i’ll ask to see if so and who makes it.
got the vape sleds in but no nickel strips so 2 more weeks till i can start the the pack.
board stuff is in but screwed up an only ordered one set of bushings not two, shite.
so for this board im starting to think its duel motor time just dont know if i want DD or DR really leaning for DD because the bigger motors i can use is a huge plus. i also need a lighting system and being a avionics tech i like to make my own circuits so plan for doing that is in the works. diagrams and schematics soon
