Finally got my adapters from @Creavenger

They came out pretty well. Thx for the support Brian!

But I realized, I was so stupid designing an adapter plate when I could just have changed the top cover of the motor :man_facepalming:
Just did a quick sketch


Guess I’ll need something like this in future if I want to fit my inrunner to gear drives.
If anybody want to machine those for me, I’m here and ready :joy:

Ok, but I managed to set everything up.
Encoder work just fine.
Actually on 8/40 chain drive with the maytech 200A escs.

I‘m a bit concerned that torque will be not enough, but bench test made me to lose a lil bit pipiiii in my pants. The sound of those is really aggressive.

Interesting how the inrunner rotate with the 6poles compared to our 14pole outrunner.
At very low rpm it is not smooth at all, but as soon as you get it spinning up a bit faster they just spin like there is no resistance at all.

Still not allowed to leave the flat and outside it’s all full of snow and ice at -14 ish degrees, so I guess it will take a bit till I can take the board up for a ride unfortunately.

What do you think my chances are at making these work with out sensors? Maybe hfi?

Shouldn’t be a big thing.
I looked through Jensos videos yesterday and it looks like they do take off pretty ok even without sensors.

HFI or future ASS worst case should do the job as well. I have big hopes in ASS.

Still fucks my brain that I didn’t bought the 56123 inrunner… if I would just have known I don’t need an adapter…

On another note, I needed to make something against my solder fumes.
So I took one of my lovely Ikea table lamps and ripped her apart.
Ordered a 14x14cm 5V USB ventilator and did print an adapter frame.
I still need one of those flexy pipes to attach from the back, but as long as I can’t leave the flat, I can’t buy one.


I always need a good light when I work on my boards, so I decided to make a more or less portable lamp out of the left over parts.

Didn’t came out too bad either and all in all a cheap solution :joy:

Looking nice! Good idea about the motor cover haha, should have come up with that. I saw a custom motor plate from 3d servisas a few days back too. I m happy to help with the plate when the time comes :wink: Be sure to make a video when you test the setup out in the wild would love to hear and see it.

I‘ll come back to that offer very likely :sweat_smile:
Can’t wait to test ride that board.
Definitely will post a feedback about it and maybe even some small video action.

Just won another week in isolation.
Guess test riding not gonna happen soon…

But I finished the first parts of my girlfriends angry bee carver :honeybee:
I did spray paint a set of APS 6374 170kV.
The color is heat resistent till 120 degree C.
Should be enough I hope :sweat_smile:

Have you seen dr mike’s temperature sensitive colour shifting tape? :heart_eyes:

Yeah that looks nice.
Would be great if we could find one that does change color at 70 degree C to indicate when your motors are close to overheat.

I was looking for some color like the good old hot wheel cars changing colors when getting wet, but couldn’t find something :cry:

I completely forgot about those. Wasn’t it hot water? My kids have my collection or at least the couple hundred that survived. I’ll have to look and see if any look like they were that version.

When I first learned I had a collecting disorder.

I need some filler material to fill up some gaps on a flexi deck. I usually use epoxy, but in this case I worry that over time it will just pop off and lock shitty.

As I’m a noob in this area, any recommendations would be appreciated.

Total Boat flex epoxy.

Got me a new member to our workshop family:

Also started routing the channel for the battery wires on the angry bee carver.

Took me a bit as I did not have had the right tools and couldn’t leave the house at that point, but I think it came out not too bad.

Last weekend I finally was set free and directly had some fun in the snow.


Very happy I have that quad and run gokart tires on it. It’s really much fun. Can’t say often enough thank you to @Taz for making that possible.

Even with those gokart tires it was too much powder and really hard to get good traction.
That’s why I decided to installed studs.


139x on each tire.
The last two days it’s so warm that all the snow is close to be gone. Just wet, mud and ice everywhere. Looks like I was too late with the studs…
I prefer spring over snow, so it’s ok, but a bit sad no the less.

Still try to get closer to 10kg on my jump board, that’s why I will give some 05b chains a try this season.
I got me some sprockets locally.
The drill press already paid off for all the custom sprockets I made so far.


At one point I wish I had a lathe thou…
It’s on the wishlist for the day I have my own garage.

Not finished yet, but weight already looks good.


That’s a good 300g saving for 2 sprockets in comparison to the 06b sprockets.

Hope to get the motor sprockets today or tomorrow and I can swap everything over.
Excited how low I can get the weight.

Wanted to get a bit more weight off my light weight build.
Starting point was at 11,4kg.
Dream is to get down to 10kg, but that’s not possible without changing the motors or esc and wiring.
So let’s see what we can do.

Changing tires:

Changing inner tubes from with slime to no slime. Saves another 120ish gram total.

Changing hubs is a bit a loss, but riding back hypa, front superstar just wasn’t mine…

Changing from 06b chains to 05b.


That all topped out at 900g weight savings.
I was hoping for something like 700g, so I’m happy with the result.
Final weight is now 10,5 kg.

Do 8" tyres weigh about the same across different brands?

How much do your motor mounts weigh?

As you can see in the first pictures there is definitely a weight difference. I swapped the 8“ Ali tired to Trampa primos which is about 90g per tire difference. The 8“ mbs might be even more light, but I can’t check as I do not have them.
It‘s minimal, but also the inner tubes are ± 20g over different brands.
It’s fun to look at it and think, ah that 10-20g doesn’t make a difference, but one buy one it really adds up.
Not wanna say a lighter tire or tube or drive train is more reliable thou.

The mounts I never really weight and I didn’t want to dismount them.
They are the idea v7 or so with a CF cross bar.
Maybe you can check in fusion360.
The dimensions are roughly 155x65x10 minus 25% cut outs.
