So, there are just electric boards and then there are those tiny little masterpieces with hours of work in it.
Sometimes you just think of an idea when you already built your board and thought, “fml that woudl’ve been so frickin’ awesome” - so ist just wanted to share my own little gimmick(s) for the next board i am building.
Today i was at work and just thought of a way to stick your enclosure perfectly to your deck, looking good, held tight.
My last deck just got screws through the complete deck, sure i was stupid enough to drill them through the griptape, but still there are screws in yo deck!
So i thought of using those little fuckers the next time! holy shit that would be so awesome!
@Acidfie threaded inserts for enclosure mounts are commonly used, and potting ESCs and other electronics in silicone or resin is also a practice many manufacturers use. You’re in good company with these ideas!
never saw those threaded inserts in any picture, besides - those are just my 2 cents. i dont think anyone has ever seen every thread for those kind of things, especially when it comes to such things.
it should not be some kind of thing manufacturers do, it is about what i want to do at home, and maybe someone else who is bulding his own board - so its just about sharing “uncommon” tricks
I like to have a little 12v - high amp USB charging module on me for when I used to be into electric RC, so that if my phone is flat I can charge it wherever and from any 12v source
Ill be doing the same on my Trampa with a battery box mounted module hooked up to the big Hobbyking Ubec they do
although, additives are great for giving urethane a good thermal conductivity.
see:
[…] “Epoxy or Urethane compounds, specifically formulated for improved thermal conductivity, are the best choices because they have excellent electrical insulating as well as very good thermal conductivity properties. Thermally conductive compounds contain special filler combinations to enhance heat transfer.” […]
