What’s the point of those? ^ Just converters from 5.5 to MR60?

For installation to enclosure. Plug esc (4mm female bullet) in on the inside and motor phase (female mr60) on the outside.

Edit - Like this I don’t have to solder stuff to the plugs after they’re epoxied to the enclosure, or don’t have to epoxy them to the enclosure with an esc attached to the end of the wires :joy:

Also means I can replace an esc more easily if it pops.

Me too bro.

I have no idea what I’m doing really. It’s a test and good to get the first one going. and learn some more stuff.

Just gonna wing it and see how we go.
Plan is evolving as I work, as it always seems to :joy:

Currently looking like:

45 inches x 10inches wide
Dropout lengths modelled from my Hummie, plus 1 inch at each end to improve deck clearance.
Maybe 30mm of drop, top mount only.
Rake at front and a rear footstop turn down tail like on an evo? (kinda?)
Good concave and foot pockets modelled from my Root Shark 92 deck and some w concave in the middle.

Follow up from my teaser :joy:

Shape is looking pretty aggressive at the moment but I’ll prob tone it down a bit as it gets some more resolution.

Have you decided your materials stack yet? I’m digging the geometry you laid out.
