go collect $30 worth of cans and get a vesc instead.
that way at some point he can just upgrade to 10s battery and have really nice board.
also need an enclosure.
and where do you get free wheels and trucks? I want some!
Enclosures can be 3d printed by me for just a few bucks and my brother knows a guys who is into longboarding and has heaps of stuff that he will sell for really cheap or trade for some stuff my brother has.
yeah I saw that video, seems good, but I’m not sure if I want to be doing that amount of metalworking with the gears because I dont have a drillpress or metal bits, but a good video overall. do you think there is anything that could be changed on my list tho? maybe swap the esc for one a bit better? idk.
you said you had a 3D printer… you can just print the gears… you’re already one up on me.
personally I prefer the 150A ESC because I know its tried and true and wont blow up on me randomly. the VESC does have battery upgrade potential but I really never feel the need for more than 6S… the 12S board I built is a freakin rocket… its way too fast for me…
