I hope you have a wing suit on the way, this seems like the perfect launch vehicle

@Esteemed Colleagues, I didn’t come here to fuck spiders.
Phase 1: Hang all that copper and decide on trucks/axles. Mechanical proof of concept
phase 2: acquire requisite unitys’ or stormitys’, Electrical proof of concept
phase 3: Dial in, test, repeat, don’t die
Phase 4: make pretty and race everything.

Did he ever actually ride anywhere? I get it, math is math, but Esk8 is Esk8.

Some of januxs’ work from earlier.
I’ve been creeping janux, etoxx, avio, and 3DS herringbone/helical/spur gears for a bit.

Damn that looks awesome! Cant wait to see it done aluminium 
Im guessing, but i think what could happen is, that only the first motor will be “pulling” and pull many more amps than the other motor. That would be inefficient. Gear drive should do much better.

Flux capacitor drive is where it’s at for this build.

I just said out loud “Oh my God yes” on impulse.
oh lordy, so nice.

Soooo How many amps do you plan to draw per motor on that build ? You gotta feed them bitches good right ?

I mean each unity can do in theory 160a continuous. So 160 x 4 = 640a continuous. He uses Lipo with what I think is 50c discharge so he should have enough…

Wait, so he will pack 8 freakin’ motors on a 4 wheel drive board and only feed up to 80a per motor ?
@Arzamenable Do you think the DeLorean hit that Return time with a meager 28kw bro ? Hit that 100kw flux capacitor maybe ? 
Nah more seriously this board will be insane for sure. Stay safe

I still don’t understand I can spin urethane Wheels out at 40+ amps.
Surly at 80 amps you can spin AT wheels?
I’m no expert but couldn’t you use 80100 motors there 100amp ish and wheel spin All day long?
so how you going to use 160amp How about a 8wheel 8motor build might give you a chance to use this power

If he did quad stormcores and 18S it’d be closer to 50kw

Guys, stop trying to make sense. This is happening, and this is how it’s happening.
I, for one, can’t wait.
