decided to finally open a thread for my new build now everything has been decided
pics to come
setup:
redember xapham fritted and insanely good looking. with eboosted enclosure.
@ahrav speed drivetrain. fatboy 275 hangers, bioboards 6396 210kv motors, 1:2.6 3ds drives, metroboard stretched and possible to go back to 3ds hubs
spintend vescs on canbus. thanks to @Anubis
12s8p p42a being built by me and prob another 12s6p on top to be used as a range extender if the need comes, llt bms from @Lee_Wright
hoyt puck (soooooooooooo nice) from @Lee_Wright
metr pro and some spare spintend remotes
also davegax and maybe some other telemetry bits if required (robogotchi and gps module)
issues:
bullet and sensor connectors? want waterproofing and easy connectors. @MrDrunkenMobster did you ever make those connectors you were talking about on the freesk8 forum
lights? (want something connected to the port on the spintend)
handle? (as this board is gonna weigh 2 tons)
anti theft stuff: this board costed way to much to ever lose thank yous
thanks to everyone
eitherway if you got any questions just ask below
SECTION II
pic dumb number 1:
best looking deck in the world thanks @jamie sadly usps made a small dent in two of the edges
section III
battery done switch and canbus cables all created all thtas left is to receive bullets from amazon and to finish the print with the tunnel risers (100% infill so should be strong)
it looks insanely good in the mockup pics and maybe if no more issues i can have this finished tomorrow
thinking about settings now and i was considering per side of the vesc 70 battery amps 100 motor amps -70 -100 and maybe -20 regen
section IV
well heres an update so i went out on an evining ride tonight and the board was super awesome. hit 35mph or so with zero wobbles on mode 2 (dont wanna go to 3 yet as i dont have my new helmet or protective gear) was super fun but gonna need some slightly softer canons up front to help me turn a little easier also gotta get some new shoes as the ones im using kill my feet while skating. the ride is super soft thanks to the wide wheels and also super stable
now the bad news. my metr before was acting weird and saying soemtimes it detected dual vescs and sometimes 3 and rarely all 4 it also wasnt showing data on the realtime page. i thought maybe just an error with the thing as it was writing data to the throttle curve fine. i pressed record and i started skating i went around 2 miles and when i got back it had only registered the first 10 seconds. it keeps just acting weird and dunno if maybe it was wired wrong or its a defective unit.

section V
well small update today finally got the board working perfect but the cabling at the back is a little messy also installed the charge port properly and got my adjustable charger
went on a ride and it was awesome kept it slow cause it was night and i am waiting for my new helmet to come (bell qualifier dlx)
went around a max of 27mph and averaged 20 consumption 55wh/mile (dunno how bad this is) but i assume it will get better over time when i go on longer rides rather then round the block max amps was 70 battery and 200 motor consumption spike of 1100wh/mile at one point
will post the ride soon
thanks to everyone for getting this to happen and this board is super awesome
section VI
went to central london today with some guys
board was super nice and with the proper bushings i hit 34mph and it was a windy day. i need to get some kit for safety.
also i ordered some moonbeams
also saw a onewheel for the first time and im super hooked. def gonna build one in the future.
last thing is one of my inner tubes burst around the valve so it isnt fixable. gonna need to gte a new one but refuse to pay £10 from evolve (even trampa are cheaper)
thats all for now
section VII
so quick update
i went on ride with @athrx and another guy (your board is awesome man check out his build thread)
and i had a slight issue with one of my motors braking when i attempted to accelerate. @Athrx helped me fix it and we turned on traction control and reduced the sensored erpm and it seems to get along fine now
i tried his mountainboard for a brief time and i found those bindings awesome (mbs f5) is there anything similar for regular longboards?
thats all for now and thanks for reading
section VIII
well thats all for now the board is sadly up fro sale now (tell me if your interested) and each section is a small snip of my journey with this board most insane board ive ever used and really just blows away everything
hoped you enjoyed the read and just ask if you have any questions below
thank you
