Today I once more realized that this „ah easy just a bit here and there and it’s ready“ always takes longer than expected.
I spent all day on the board today and honestly I don’t know what took me so long…
All sprockets are aligned and fixed with loctite
The threads for the battery packs are set and the velcro cut in place.
Grip tape job done as well.
Main power leads are laid and bullet connectors soldered to all the main and phase wires.
That’s how it looks now
Right now printing a top cover for the escs. In 3h I will know if it will fit or not
Fuck no… didn’t understood in the morning…
The lid hole pattern is not symmetrical and I didn’t see that… fuck it. Why things can’t for from the first try.
So here we go again 3.5h.
Not really much happened the last days.
Switched back to chains on my light white and just spend some quality time riding it.
Today I just wanted to go and buy some heat shrink and whooops I found those babys next to the tubes laying.
Bigger than I need but better a bit more thermal mass I thought…
My favorite work, drilling holes and cutting threads. I usually always fuck something up.
What you guys and girls think, to cut the heat sink to a smaller size, or just stay with the fuck it there is never enough thermal mass attitude and let it like it is on the last picture?
So today I did the battle hardening
30ml of epoxy
5 teaspoons of microspheres
1 paddle pop stick of blue mica powder because why not
2h of work later…
I also conformal coated the stator and windings.
Changing the bearings to some NSK DD as well.
And I added some debris protectors so rocks don’t come in.
You don’t have an stl for fan covers to put over the motor do you? something like this
Oh nice! In case you didn’t put them together yet, could you measure the stator size?
Would be interesting to see how they compare to the 6384s in size.
I never installed a fan on my motors, so I need to pass here, sorry.
