Created this abomination
Just so ya know you can turn the inner bullet connectors to line this up perfectly.
Ok, I got motor to spin at least and did set some voltage parameters Happy that this is actually working LOL
Now I have no idea where to put the sensor wire from the motor since it doesnt fit in the focbox at all
Ok, I did craziest thing. I rode the thing around the building. It was put together with ductape, paper, no switch, just antispark xt90. Stupid thing to do, but other than loosing 1 motor mount screw I learned smth:
- Don’t ever try to use TN v4 mounts without drilling holes in the hangar for the screws. Drill holes, apply red loctite. Apply blue electric tape for extra safety.
- Don’t use blue loctite. It’s for notebooks and shit. Not for eboards. Be a man, use red one.
- BLDC mode is shit in startup and breaking. Sound is great, clogging is not. In general not that pleasant riding experience
- I need to solve the wiring problem inside the enclosure. Xt90 and solid splitter are great, but not flexible. Also motor phase wires are WAAAYYY too long.
Do you have a jst 1.5 to 2mm adapter for your sensor wires? If no probably you will not be able to connect the sensor wires
no. I guess will try to buy it locally or hack the thing by soldering
Jup! You should get as min the 2mm in every small hobby shop. If you don’t find the 1.5jst than just cut the plug off an solder the 2mm on it
Yesterday finished everything and did setup the vescs. Tried to ride it at speed and did find out that trucks are WAAAAY to loose. As soon as I let go the throttle got crazy wobbles and met the asphalt… God bless helmets. Even tho I rolled like a champion still my leg got hurt to the point that I barely can walk.
In addition to that: crash bent my front axle
Why did you choose for mounting the truck kind of ‘through’ your board?
Other than that it looks amazing
To get more clearance from the ground. Battery is double stacked, so not only I did mount truck like that, but I’m about to buy additional riser
Wow I’m confused.
I thought drop through decks decrease clearance? Closer to the ground
Yea, I bought the deck before deciding about battery. So I ended up mounting the truck underneath the deck, making it reasonably higher
Update: I did manage to fix the bent axle (more or less). Used long metal tube and 2 guys (both weight around 100kg). That thing is tough to bend!
Tightened the trucks to the max and did test ride again. HOLYYY this thing is crazy. I applied only fraction of a throttle the whole ride. There was no desire to apply more whatsoever. I’m literally scared of this board Maybe motor settings are cranked up too high? My current ones are 80.0 A -60.0 A 40.0 A -25.0 A
Good luck unscrewing red loctite. If used properly you never really need anything more than the blue one. Really.
I did use red on motor mount clamps, so they wont EVER move And I might bought some shit blue loctite, bcuz its not viscous at all. It just drips form the bolt instantly
Sounds like a sketchy loctite. I have had some liquidy ones, but they did hold up well so far.
I hear good things about loctite variants you can find on hobby king, I ordered some TL blue versions myself there is a stronger and weaker blue version too.
Did buy it locally. Bad luck
