Hello everyone! First post and first build! Majority of parts already ordered. I’ve been skating for a long time. Mainly cruising so I’m really excited to stop having to propel myself! Especially living in Michigan around my area there’s not a lot of places to get a good cruise in. Anyways!
I’m getting
1x Mboards 6374 180kv motor
1x Mboards 10s2p battery ( I know I could probably have done much better and plan to upgrade in the future at some point )
And the torqueboards single motor mechanical kit ( it was on sale! ) with 83mm flywheels and the 180mm trucks. Sandwiching oust moc 7’s
Im planning on getting a programmable ESC ( possibly the torqueboards bldc) but I have no real idea what to look for. I’m trying to get the best bang for my buck but don’t want something unreliable. Are the cheap Chinese combo packs a considerable thought at all ? Programming won’t be super important to me right out of the gate. I just want the board under my feet!!
I’ll be building it on my 44" pintail with “easy” deck swaps in mind because my preferences change often.
Also, do I really need an anti-spark switch ? Will it damage my ESC/battery/motor internals if I don’t have any solution or only the metal on the connectors ? How hard would they be to replace ?
Thanks!
