Archived: the OG noob question thread! 😀

[BluPenguin]

Yeah what I just said. lol. Motor can go above battery, not the other way.

[annihil8ted]

Lol brain wasn’t on

Thanks, just wanted to make sure I got my understanding correct

[Dareno]

I seem to remember a while back a discussion on this very subject. In fact I think and again I am working with a very shaky memory here that @mmaner set up a flipper 4.20 like this but I could be wrong

its been a long time since I have been wrong but…

[mmaner]

Yep, it was a FlipSky 100a dual, not the plus version… If I remember correctly. I had issues with FOC at 59a, I was successful at 40a battery and 60a motor… if I remember correctly.

How can we build a 100 MPH board?

[BillGordon]

The current world record is 59.55 mph. Let’s start there.

[Movation]

Cutout the middle part and go straight to this…

phase 2:
phase 3: profit

[sesat]

20s 14T/44T gearing 220kv 8" pneumatics
$2 million term life policy
$5 million umbrella liability insurance policy
pilot who won’t think too hard about it before taking it for a ride like @Arzamenable

i got no business answering this question, i’ll wet my pants north of 25mph

[Dareno]

Is that moes unofficial or the crazy eastern european whos wheel came off over the line?

[wandagoner]

@sesat

i’ll wet my pants north of 25mph

quit trying to use a water bottle to turn. you just end up spilling it, making a mess, and telling a story no one believes.

[wandagoner]

my presumption is @BillGordon is referring to the Guinness book record from Slovenia

Who will ride a 100mph board?

[wandagoner]

@BluPenguin

Who will ride a 100mph board?

there are (2) clear candidates
@Arzamenable
@Underoath888

[BillGordon]

@Dareno

crazy eastern european

That one. Mischa Urban, I believe. I think Moe and company have gone faster than that, but not officially. Then there’s our friend Fastboard…

@Dareno

Thats the fella.

[BillGordon]

Add Mike’s roommate Rob. Or put a bowl of Spicy Miso at the finish line and turn Tim loose.

[Dareno]

Were they the nextboard guys? That funny @longhairedboy video basically junking most of the innards?

That speed run video is actually a good watch. Guys ditches over the line at 60 odd. Then completes a run and both wheels come off the back and he rides it out. Say what you like about the board but the rider has mad skills.

[BillGordon]

@Dareno

Were they the nextboard guys?

I believe so. Yeah, full respect for his skills.

[Arzamenable]

Appreciate the confidence. Late night Friday night mike says, “why not”.

Sunday early evening mike getting ready for Monday says, please cc @JaysTCB @MoeStooge @mario @robbie @timdel , has anyone seen my stethoscope? Where is the receipt for my uniform dry cleaning?
