That’s not crazy shipping to Australia or something at that cost?! Those things are like 13$ on Amazon I’m almost sure. I’ve one I don’t want. I’ll give it to you for…50$.
Speaking of Velcro and batteries. I haven’t found anything to convince me occasional ricocheting rocks are damaging the batteries and I like using the Velcro and then I only ever use the same batteries and charge them attached. Velcro is permanent for me … Until I pot and stick (24) 18650s to the board with the 70 duro clear rubber I have waiting
Mate the amount of times I have tried to get a nunchuck shipped over here… seriously that is the best deal I could get without buying a bulk lot of 10.
I’m actually pretty happy with $110 for the pair!
seriously we get screwed over postage here and most of our local shops don’t sell anything useful.
so it’s 13$ and the 42$ shipping ? That’s amazing. If its a tarrif that the big retailers are adhering to maybe use craigslist or I’d sell it a lot cheaper than that. It’s in my collection I want out and trying to sell on here.
Almost done rewinding (LRK terminated wye). This is it done really. I get to test them first and see how this weird winding feels and sounds and maybe change what we’re getting. Windings they’ll do last. This should have a much lower kv and want to see how that feels. And there will be a mismatch with the other 100kv
Have to see if I can figure the kv out on the bldc tool. If you know please tell
This cool tool I just got. Measures inductance. Electromagnetism.
Ok I’m done jumping in your already exciting thread. But both you guys are getting these and thought you might like to see
It is working fine with my diy wiiciever. The recieving dongle actually looks identical to the kamas, so its probably based on it. I prefer it as its much slimmer, but I havent had it long enough to see how the battery life is.
Awesome @lowGuido ! I like that you removed the original wires on the Kama receiver and completely replaced them. That’s what I would do if I could do it over again. I didn’t have a small enough soldering tip back then!
I’ll closely watch your experience with the native implementation of nuhchuck with VESC. Despite many efforts to correct it I still had occasional dropouts. I’ve stopped using the Nunchuck and went back to GT2B for now.
yeah @treenutter I replaced the wires because the original ones are rubbish. I would have liked to keep the same colours but I only had red black and white.
@tommyb10 you know what, I went back to look at those kama’s again.
$500 delivered! go and get Fire trucked. I can buy them individually for $50 each.
im sure last time i looked they were $250 for 10
ok the hack, has now been fully set up for push assist.
its actually quite cool. although being a hack, it’s literally held together with sticky tape and velcro. not up to my usual standard, but It works well as a proof of concept, and I will be making a video soon.
