Been thinking about this fun build for a while and finally got the time to do it. It was really fun planning, collecting parts, building. Relaxing really, was my modern day, easier version of ship in a bottle build because of the tiny parts, steady hand and precision needed.
Most of the pictures are in the post but here is a link to the full album.
First, list of parts.
• 4" Deck
• Cast Trucks w/ Rubber Bushings
• 7.5mm Rubber Wheels w/ Bearings
• Foam Grip Tape w/ LEGO addon
[USB connector for scale]
• Dual 0408 23KV Motors
• 3A Brushed ESC
• 1S1P 260mAh Li-Po Battery
• FrSky Micro 8ch RX
And now, the build process.
First, mounting the Direct Drive system, wheels and motors to trucks
Testing the electronics…
Eyeballing the layout…
Mounting…
Huh! Everything hooked up!
Aaaaand, we have some lights there! Seems like the white smoke hasn’t escaped yet.
Doing the grip tape and LEGO…
Just look at that direct drive sexiness!
And here it is, the Little Big Curvy! Pretty, ain’t it?
Trying out the board… Woah, this thing is SICK!!!
Massive torque, no need for push start!
I have also invited some of the forum members for exclusive beta testing of the board.
@okp doin’ his thing!
They have all agreed this is, hands down, the best board ever.
It was good fun! Share, comment, like, disike below haha
