any more suggestions on how i could fix this ?

Noob question thread! ask your questions here!

guys i have a quick question… with my e-caliber trucks and mounts, since the hangars are becoming thinner towards the end, its hard to align the clamps further out, so how bad is it if i mount them a bit more towards the center and move the motor pulley out like 3 millimeters to accomodate for this ? will this put a lot more stress on the motor axle ? [IMG_4986] this seems to be the only solution the align all this somewhat straight

should i try making an “adapter” out of epoxy that rests inside the clamp ? im really looking for a non permanent solution

[MysticalDork]

I’d suggest using some shim stock - very thin sheetmetal used in machine shops and the like. It’s available in a lot if different thicknesses from <0.001" all the way up to regular sheetmetal thickness, and available in lots of different materials too - steel, stainless, brass, etc. It’s available from McMaster, Amazon, and a lot of other places.

Basically get some shim stock and use it to fill up the gaps between the clamp and the truck.

To answer your earlier question directly, it is possible to just space things farther apart, but IMO it’s better if at all possible to keep things as close together as possible to avoid excessive bending forces - I actually broke a motor shaft clean off by having my belt too tight.

You’ll need bearing adapters that sits inside the superstar rim and takes 608 bearings. These are boardbumpers and Trampas offerings:

Spoke Support Spacers

thanks for those suggestions guys, combined this could become a really cheap and easy fix if i can pull it off!

Straight forward question. Will two 6384 motors fit on Torque V5 motormount with 218mm trucks? (inward mount)
Thanks

[Komamtb]

I’m pretty sure no, 6380 would be the biggest you can fit.

Does anyone have a picture of hummie deck next to prototypo? To compare the stance…

[PixelatedPolyeurthan]

what connector is this

it is the evolve motor sensor plug

[mutantbass]

looks like 5 pin JST XH or JST PH

i have a funny newb question…

why is there no dual remote /slidepuck solution that allow control in the opposite hand while one slidepuck is on the ground ?

in my puny mind this sounds like a lot of fun

[MarkOneBoards]

Weird things happening.

Yesterday setting up my board = no problem

Today 1 of the motors does not want to run in BLDC mode.

When switching it to FOC the motor spins.

Motors: Flipsky 6374 3250W

Anyone?

[PixelatedPolyeurthan]

Did you rerun motor calibration?

[MarkOneBoards]

yes I did, the other motor does just fine.

[PixelatedPolyeurthan]

swap the left motor phase wires with the controlers right phase wires and same with the other motor and tell me the result

[BillGordon]

To be clear, BLDC sensored or unsensored?

[MarkOneBoards]

All done, its not the fsesc.
Still doesnt work when connected to the second esc.

Btw: second item from Flipsky that gives me trouble…

[MarkOneBoards]

Sensored

[BillGordon]

Can you pull them and try again?

[MarkOneBoards]

Also done, same result.

[BillGordon]

And no touching or exposed connector on phase wires?
