I agree with your sentiment about Baja. I definitely think we can take what they’ve done, as well as other mechanical techniques from cars to really improve our hardware
I don’t want more maintenance as I already have with my boards. Please no
In my eyes it’s just more parts to break.
I don’t see any performance advantages to creating a tiny differential so that I can drive two wheels off 1 motor.
Electronic differential as you might know.
That would be me
I’m looking forward to see ceramic cells hitting the market.
And people riding Noiseless drive cause fuck yea.
And racing the duck outta you cause I had a dream and was pissed off cause I raced a bunch of you guys with my classic skates and ate dust. Pride requires salvation. Race is coming. None will escape my grasp behold. My. beer.
Fancy!!!
Do they have golden showers?
2019
the move to the new forum is when I found myself interacting/participating more for no particular reason. Sorry about that.
2020
I hope lithium battery shipping regulations will be revised so I can order some cells Finaly.
You don’t need a diff. The rear truck turning is enough. Some testing but maybe just a one way bearing is all thats needed. Baja doesn’t have a diff either. It just runs the motors inboard instead of out but runs dual and belts as normal.
Doesn’t it have a electronic differential
Looking forward to finish my build in 2020 for Paris and the SoCal Adventure.
@Skunk I said that a bit earlier in this thread
Well aware. Dareno obviously missed that
Its my understanding that it utilises a similar function as traction control on vesc tool. Not a diff per se but adjusts each motor individually.
How did you like it Kelly?
2019: became a part of the community and mer several of you fucks. Great people all around! I grew as a builder and got to test out some really cool things. 2019 was an adventure and a learning experience with a little dose of chaos thrown in…!
2020: meeting more of you peeps!!! Hopefully taking a trip to europe to meet the EU folk. Build my own battery and participate in a race!!!
@Bobby Well, flying to Europe from US is more expensive than flying ma ass to you.
@Dareno Didn’t noticed anything on the Baja(differential) and had my first fall with it, because triggerhappy remote.
It definitely took a minute to get used to because it’s not a skateboard but it’s a lot of f****** fun
I would compare it to more of an RC car.
Fun to play with, but will always need something fixed.
I loved it for the ride but its just too bloody big. Granted I have only ridden them in big open spaces but I could see it being a problem inner city wise. Massive blast on hard sand though.
The last one I looked at was a fucking jungle under the hood. That had a blown bms too. Credit to Baja though, they are good at customer service. Assembly line tho…
