So since I want another smaller board to run around with, I decided to build a hub motor kicktail board
Things that have already been ordered:
ESC / Motors / controller from Predator Boards / Ownboard – boosted board style remote, supposedly near vesc-level smoothness.
30x Samsung 30Q cells from IMR batteries and a 10S bms for charge-only, I will be building the pack myself.
battery enclosure from UNiK
32x9 kicktail deck that is currently drying after being painted black.
I will still need to get a front truck/wheels.
Grip tape, and other misc things.
I’ll get build pictures up once parts start trickling in.

not welded yet, but stacked in its final configuration. should give plenty of juice and range for this build.

I’d sell those 159mm Indeesz + the orange Baseplate for $60. I think that’s a pretty fair price considering the cost of a new set that’s never seen a hill bomb.

do you wanna sell the adjustable base plates?
I’d have to charge a lot more for those adjustable base plates.I’m rather fond of them.

board is done, due to some issues i had to go with a wowgo esc and picked up the new meepo hubs with replaceable PU sleeves.
in classic fashion i lost a bolt so the enclosure has only 7 instead of 8.
anyways, its charging now but i love the stealthness of hubs. time will tell how it rides.
