I need a practical board with long-range that isn't massive like the [Cyboard](https://forum.esk8.news/t/the-cyboard-stainless-steel-unibody-ubox-modular-16s6p-tm3-bn-at/44266). But it can't be normal either because god forbid my board isn't the coolest one at the group ride.

I named this thing "Rocinante" after the ship captained by James Holden in the show The Expanse. 
https://youtu.be/XIKQVow3Mmo?t=76

The initial inspiration was @DerelictRobot calling me "Holden" at Carve PDX because, apparently, I look very much like him.

This build started with me blatantly following @Brently around. First, he got a Bro deck from @ApexBoards , so I got a blemished Bro from @Haeroboards directly for a steep discount. Then we placed an order for two DS Bro-closures from @eBoosted and split the shipping.

One afternoon Brent comes over and we're talking shop and build plans. One thing leads to another and we end up deciding to both try out our new unreleased Ę̴̢̘͚̟͈̤̥̹̠̹̘̫̩͕͙͕͈̦̰͓̤̭̭̫̯͎͈̙̦̈́̊̾̎͊̉̾̊̋͊́̈͐̒͝Ş̸̛̹̣̪̘̠̝͍̖̜̲̝͙͇͍̝̜̺͔̱̜̯̭̣̪̝͚̰͚͎̪͙͎̰̻͙͎̺̫̹̗̮͒̆̀̂̀͆͌̆̍̈̈́̌̏̓͊̅͌̀̉̈̂̅͐̃̃͋̓̈́͗̌̏̆̀͒̿̾̓͜͝Ç̵̡̧̡̛͖̥͚̜̟͕̗̟̗̙̞̳̩̥͕̯̣̗͙̬͕͇̪̮̞̪̪̀̽͛̌̿͗̉͂̆̚͘ͅ . 20s is a risk we decided to take together and I built us both a **20s4p P42A** pack with a 20s ANT BMS.

The rest of the build is pretty unremarkable, Trampa precision trucks. I wish I didn't have to buy from them but I am addicted to the soft barrels from Kaly NYC. [Vantablack](https://forum.esk8.news/t/vantablack-13s4p-40t-trampa-holy-pro-unity-kaly6374-stretched-wheels/43403) has the same truck and barrel setup and its a crowd favorite so I didn't fix what wasn't broken.

An issue I had with this build is that the enclosure is thiccc and hangs way lower than the hangars. I bought a set of carbon fiber 1cm risers from Brent, and now the enclosure and hangar are at about the same height off the ground. I may add a little more in the future but it's more than rideable as is.


>Battery Build

Getting a 20s pack to fit in an enclosure made for 12s was a challenge, but I kinda enjoy the battery jenga. What I ended up doing is 5x 4s 'modules'.

![image|690x388](upload://eoWFIXiR4yCFtJKBigY3VlaYFtS.jpeg)

Doing it like this made the pack a lot faster to build. I could make 10x identical 4s modules for me and Brent's build. His is shifted back in the enclosure to accommodate an ESC in the front one day for AWD. I like to split my battery builds into as many repeatable steps as possible.

>Deck Pics

I ordered the nose art from the Rocinante in the form of a sticker that bearly fit on the deck. I then traced it on red grip tape and did this

>Drivetrain

The BN-AT from @Boardnamics is my go-to drive train. I went with a 5.2 ratio with 140kv motors. The calc says Ill get between 40-45mph top speed on this build.

The wheels are from Trampa, only because I can throw a spacer in them to widen the wheels an ungodly amount in the future.

The tires are basically kenda 8in but from aliexpress, got them from a guy in DC.

>Whats left to do

There is an OSRR receiver in here, so as soon as I get my remote I can start using it. The puck I've had for many crashes now is starting to give up, so I havent ridden this at mode 3 yet. Too scary.

Not surprised! Stock is 16s and doesn’t put out as many amps as it should haha. Plus the thing weighs 125lbs or so.

yeah, the stock one is really slow. My buddy has a Molicel 20S8P 42A BAC8000 upgrade which is night and day. Can't beat it of the line. It goes in about 3s from 0-50km/h. Fastest I measured so far on a board was 4,6s on the 12S8P Interceptor AWD. I have much faster boards but my balls are not big enough to max them out.

@jack.luis you might be a braver rider as I'm. Do you habe a Draggy to measure your 0-31mph time? I guess about 3s should be possible.

Do you habe a Draggy to measure your 0-31mph time?
[/quote]

I don't, but I should

-------------------------

DEEIF | 2021-11-15 18:27:51 UTC | #50

Anyone building fast boards should have a dragy... Ive got a code for them as well... **ASTROTECH**

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-11-15 18:32:29 UTC | #51

I only see 0-60 being the slowest timer, can you confirm it does 0-30mph?

-------------------------

DEEIF | 2021-11-15 18:33:23 UTC | #52

Yeah you can do custom (For example 0-15, 300ft etc)

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-11-15 18:33:35 UTC | #53

oh hell yeah

-------------------------

Chricious | 2021-11-15 19:16:57 UTC | #54

It is very handy, you can configure multiple trap speeds.
I have set mine from 0-100km/h for every 10km/h. You could also go every 5km/h if you want to have a more accurate acceleration curve.
Additionally you can record the runs on your phone which is a cool feature as well.

Looks so good! Love it, the red really pops 💃

Creavenger | 2021-12-15 21:42:05 UTC | #56

Do you have any pictures of how you made the inserts into the deck?

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-12-15 21:44:53 UTC | #57

I used [these](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002WC8TSE/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_AQM4NJWGYZ1EQNCGNP1Z?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1) and followed the instructions on the bag for the drill bit size.

I used a very short M4 button head bolt to drive em in place

-------------------------

Creavenger | 2021-12-15 21:50:31 UTC | #58

Thanks! So the edge of the buttonhead runs into the deck making sure the insert sits perfectly flush? And did you use any epoxy on the inserts?

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-12-15 21:53:24 UTC | #59

Yes,

also, no epoxy :grimacing:

The first time I fully closed it up I expected something not to work (always the case it seems) so I didnt add epoxy.

Turns out I got it all right the first time so I never opened it up again lol

The next time I open it ill add the epoxy

-------------------------

Creavenger | 2021-12-15 22:09:54 UTC | #60

As long as it works 🤷 but I guess some epoxy to lock them in wont hurt. Im also thinking about the workflow for drilling the holes in the enclosure and deck. I guess first drill the enclosure, then put enclosure on the deck and mark the holes with a sharpie, then drill the insert pockets/holes into the deck?

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-12-15 23:52:36 UTC | #61

I put the enclosure +gasket on the deck. Measured how much of the drill bit is needed to get through it all + almost through the deck. I then used a collar lock on that part of the drill.

As I drilled all the holes, the enclosure was clamped down and I put bolts through the holes as I went in an "X" pattern. I used 4mm bolts so I drilled 4mm holes.

After, I take everything off and use the correct drill bit +collar to make the holes in the deck the right diameter.

Then I inserted the inserts with the socket cap bolt

What kind of range are you getting with this battery? Having a 20s4p built soon so I’ll curious!

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2021-12-16 04:15:23 UTC | #63

Haha Ive yet to do a full range test , sprained my ankle right after I finished it lol

-------------------------

@glyphiks was it first to spot my backwards enclosure, we had a good run, made it through the BOTY vote without anyone noticing haha

I spray painted this little decal to take attention away from it

I hope you're coming to the ride tomorrow, would love for you to try it

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2022-03-22 02:17:24 UTC | #72

I've been riding this thing in the rain a little bit since it's basically unavoidable in Portland. I opened her up last night to check for any water ingress, looks like absolutely none of it got in. I had a silicone seal all around the outside of the enclosure. But now I put it on the gasket itself, this thing should be really really water resistant now.

Well this was interesting. Rocinante was too much for this slippery track, I was able to do a burnout at any speed with less than 50% throttle. 

There was a few hours with grip right after they sprayed the track with corn syrup

Is this a typical technique?

I've never heard of spraying a track with sugar, but i don't race much.

-------------------------

ShutterShock | 2022-04-01 02:16:35 UTC | #79

Moe said its something that makes a big difference for their wheels

-------------------------

rusins | 2022-04-01 13:50:53 UTC | #80

That... sounds like cheating, lol

-------------------------

Flyboy | 2022-04-01 14:32:49 UTC | #81

Not if everyone gets the same amount of corn syrup, they do a similar thing for dragsters

-------------------------

DEEIF | 2022-04-01 15:50:32 UTC | #82

Sounded like it made a huge difference for everyone, it also seemed like the stooge rubbers had the least traction on the smoothed concrete

-------------------------

ShutterShock | 2022-04-01 15:54:38 UTC | #83

It was the same track for everyone. People with kendas and other said that the track was super grippy in the morning after they did that

Stooge wheels had the worst grip before  this let them barely catch up. Urethane was still the best though

The car charger that's already in my board is powering them. So now I'm using all the ports it had.

I soldered a USB extender and reused the "waterproof" ports.

-------------------------

zero_ads | 2022-09-18 17:10:19 UTC | #87

I like these pass through USB ports you have on the side. Are they water proof or do you plug them somehow? How useful do you find them?

-------------------------

jack.luis | 2022-09-18 18:43:18 UTC | #88

Makes it so I never have to open my board up. I have little silicone plugs that go in and seal them

-------------------------

zero_ads | 2022-09-18 19:02:02 UTC | #89

Might have to try this in my next build. I’d that custom side plate you created with all the ports, looks really nice 👍
