Is that magnums, moon pulleys, sk3s and boardnamics trucks/mounts?

I have pretty much exact same drive train going on my wolfshark :joy: what gearing you got on that?

@rosco what enclosure is that?

3 Likes

Yup. SK3s from the Bara GB.

Finally mounted the enclosure that I made at the start of the year. A bit of a mission cos battery finished a bit thicker than the plan when I made the enclosure. Fits though, apart from that one screw which is always bitch.

It’s 32:16. 10s5p 30Q, flipsky antispark, no BMS (balance plug for charging)
Still got some finishing on the wiring to do. Need to bypass the antispark circuits on the fsesc6.6’s and Velcro that stuff in place.

DIY one I made earlier in the year. It’s carbon and fg. It’s super thin and light - more just like a cover, everything is fixed to the deck.

Vac bagged the enclosure in a female mould. Good learning with mould shape, where a few tight corners didn’t lay up very well.

do you have a thread about the external smart BMS yet?

I just want to know about how you hook up the leads of the battery/charger before the balance leads

Not yet, its on my work queue. Turns out that building batteries is easier than writing about them :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Notice how my binding is popped up every photo… Still waiting on a missing binding plate. Always the little things.

You sir, are the dollar waiting on the dime. Really frustrating but it’s gonna be so worth it. The combo of the oil slick trcks and your deck are on point. Looking forward to see you tear it up on that glorious machine

Just use a couple of washers until it arrives.

Definitely will be stealing the one off my other set of bindings if it gets to that point. Gotta run all the cabling today.

Very cool to see this kind of support for FreeSK8, but we’re not competing with esk8.news as much as creating a home for FreeSK8 and those who value the principles behind the open-source philosophy and the promise of next-gen PEV electronics.

Many donations here are to support the products/people here and make it known they want/support them.
I’m cashing out 100$/month to make sure the engineers feel appreciated in their work. Esk8news only sees 15 and that might drop now that I know it makes absolutely no difference whether I do it or not

Edit: just read myself. Sounds like I’m all nice and shit. Not entirely true, I also do it for freebies and discounts :upside_down_face:
