Hey guys, I haven’t posted much, but here is what I am working on right now. It is a Loaded Vanguard Flex 1 deck with Caliber trucks. Also put some Kegal wheels on it. I was blowin away by how well it rides. I can cover so much area with very little effort on this board. I’ve been having a blast just riding it around. Now I am even more excited for this build.
Motor Mount and pulleys:
I am going to machine my own motor mounts on a CNC mill. Is there any interest for some strong well made motor mounts? I am thinking about running a batch of 50-100 if people would buy them. I’m open on design ideas at this point even. I have some designs modeled and ready for testing as well.
Batteries:
Any advice on doing a 10s4p battery pack in 4 different sections of the board?
for the batteries you can hook them all up as 1s4p groups and connect the series with silicone cable. If you add a little length to the cable it should be good enough for the whole pack to flex. The enclosure would be a challenge however. Building it like kaly’s enclosure would work though.
This is what I’m thinking for a motor mount. I have seen this collet style on here before. I will mill the plate to .375in and the slimmer mount area to .250in. The collet insert will just need to be hit with the bandsaw to create a clamp. The screws should be sufficient especially with some locktite.
Anybody want one? The collet insert could be milled to accept Paris, Caliber, or most other truck styles.
Edit: Material would be 6061 T6 or better, possible 7075 blends. Possible slimmer Titanium mounts as well.
hey! would this case fit a 10S1P LIPObatteries? this is the type of batterie that i want to use https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-5000mah-2s-30c-lipo-pack-xt-90.html and the specifications are
