[COMPLETED] I dont always e-skate, but when I do... Vugenhausen/83mm Flywheels/TB Pulley Kit/TB Mount/TB 6355 260KV/TB VESC/Zippy Lipo's/Flagship/Under Lights

@Ackmaniac Done. Honestly I cant really tell the difference in power from 1000 to 1332, but I haven really ridden it a lot either, since the config changes.

Anyways, you wanted some video of the app running and recording, so here you go. Its not much, just a ride around the parking lot. Let me know if I can do anything to help.

Nice job! I can’t wait to get mine completed. I can use some of your build sheet as a guideline.

@LAVAMAN feel free brudda, let me know if I can do anything to help. I’ve done a few things that aren’t listed since the initial build, but for the most part it is accurate and all of the hardware/electronics listed are working great.

Its UPGRADE time!

Im going with dual Touqueboard 6355 190kv motors using MEB VESCs.

I have a DIY 190kv from a previous build plus a new one on order. DIY is out of stock on VESCs right now, I already had an extra MEB VESC, so I just ordered another one. I’ll swap the DIY VESC and the batteries out into another build I am working on…

I’ve got a Space Cell Pro enclosure that I bought just because they were on sale, gonna use that as well. I’ve got a 10s3p battery from the group buy coming, to go in in the Space Cell.

I am going to strip the board and remove the existing threaded inserts. The existing inserts are brass, most broke during installation, so I don’t trust them. I’ll fill the holes with wood putty & sand and the install new inserts I got off eBay for the Space Cell enclosure. After all the electronics mounted in the enclosure the enclosure is dry-fitted I am going to paint the bottom of the deck with black satin enamel. I have already sanded the truck hangers and existing motor mount and repainted with satin black enamel, I’ll sand and paint the base plates and the new motor mount when all my parts start coming in.

I am going to re-grip the top of the deck with some black Jessup Pimp Grip I’ve got laying around, no idea of the cost, it was give to me.

I am not going for a stealth board, but I like the idea of everything being black with red underbody lights (currently installed). I might go for some Knight Rider lights :slight_smile:.

that board might be the one i go with for my eventual build. inexpensive, classy looking, nice design, and everyone here seems to adore it

It’s a great deck. Great concave, light, wide and long enough to be stable but not a surfboard.

Did you find the 260KV 6355 + 6S combo to be powerful enough (speed and/or accel)?

It works great, the only reason I am changing is to get the range of the bigger battery and smooth acceleration of dual drives.

I have both the TB and MEB VESC’s and I really like how the MEB VESC has the heatsink. Some say it isn’t necessary but you really can never be to cautious. Really like this build!

What did you use to mount the enclosure to your deck?

EDIT: Nevermind. Found the answer.

I started with threaded inserts, but they are just too brittle. I eventually just went to barrel nuts.

Did you have to drill through the board and buy longer screws?

You do have to drill through the board, but it secures an enclosure so much better than threaded inserts in my opinion. I used different bolts because I wanted them to be flush with the deck and drip tape.

Hey, excellent build! I noticed you didn’t use an anit-spark plug. Was the high-voltage switch enough?

I had a vedder switch on it, I have since torn this build down and used the parts on other builds. That’s a great deck though.
