Rotate the baseplate 180* ? It’s narrower on the bottom and that would net some ride height I too I think

Yep, added a cm or 2 of ride height but no biggie.

yes

Truck dependant. On MBS matrix you can fit 6396. On Lacroix hypertrucks you can fit 77mm diameter motors now

That means… a file on those hypertrucks and lots of determination can fit 80100 motors

Ill check for 80mm but I remember very little clearance with 77mm diameter motors (neumotor)

Yeah they’ll need to be tested thoroughly. I had great results until I looked inside the drives after 50ish miles

Need two boards, can’t deal with the downtime :joy:

Pinion deformed?

Abnormal wear on the wheel gear

The pinion has a rough tooth surface finish because there were made by wire machining

It could be that, might get them remade. But it also could be caused by poor mesh, can’t tell. Even could be the new grease I was trying out. Too many factors

I’ll open mine next week and have a look. I hope they are OK! I had to rework my drives on the CNC to get them to fit :sweat_smile:

Side note, I ordered some Archoil. See if I can be convinced
