Rufly the total build came out to about to be retail:$1200
Spent $1040 because of sales.
I will upload graphs of its performance in the next few days
-so far highest speed reached has been 28, haven’t tried yet
It works great for holding the battery’s and vesc, great seal, great option for a first build. Saves a lot of time and stress/worry about screwing up the bsm and lipos if you haven’t had much experience with it.
That is just me being over cautious about debris on the road that could get in my motor, the scorpions vents are larger then other motors, I have rebalanced the red band with black rubber electrical tape.
I am aware of scorpion motors and how they run a little hotter then others, the covering is an air permable cover and still vents very well. Currently watching it to make shure it doesn’t over heat.
