Nice one man, this looks super tidy.
Thanks. @MBS bindings are great. Those holes that they put in place are perfect for routing wires and hiding them

Rode it some more.
Davegax now claims 12 miles range fully charged. (lipos are like 2 years oldā¦ might be time for new ones wonāt go full bar no more)
Rode it more todayā¦ I am really surprise I didnāt loose that much range. Maybe Vesc6 + Geardrive really helped with efficeny?

Sorted out the button issues.
It turned out the button works just fine.
I am a little annoyed that you canāt turn off push to start.
I was getting in a weird state where I was dragging the board turning and one of the vesc would pop on. The button would glow but the davegax wonāt turn on because the button was hooked onto the 5v of the vesc that didnāt turn on.
Aside from that small quirk, the button works.
@Trampa would looooooove to have ability to disable push to start Thanks!

Wire them differently?
I am wiring them in according to trampa. apparently switch also = push to start
Because Corona virus so I have to keep fiddling with this build 
Swapped out motor to torqueboard 170kv 6380
Swapped gear ratio now 11 - 44 running 9 inch wheels
Batteries donāt like me but the motors are holding up fine <3 @torqueboards
Finally got the moon drive dialed in.
God I love the free roll on these things.
For the price you really canāt be beat these drives. <3 @moon
Lessons learnt:
If you got wobbly wheels and you are using a trampa hub check the spokes. I gotta a few that didnāt really sit flush on the hub and the whole thing was wobbly. Sand paper and spare parts from an old build did the trick.
There is a right amount of backlash. As little backlash as possible without it locking wonāt give you the best result. I wound up with the double folded paper method. Also the motor spurs are not going to be 100% centered. The keyway will push it to one end. I found the point of maximun height and use that point to set my backlash.

Random question. What is the bag holding the lipos? I like that look. Easy swap 
Nice work!
Everything looks so nice and neatā¦
I like the way you lined up the motors so the logos lined up for that pic! Lol
Great job! And yes that box is pretty sweet!

Nice job, Iām your same weight, whyād you go with the white dampers on the MBS matrix2ās?
Howās the Haero compare to colab?
I am assuming you ment yellow. Didnāt need to go to the orange. its stable enough.
Haero is reallyā¦ just betterā¦ the concave around the foot are better, the board itself is āflatterā it doesnāt have any chamber at all around where you stand. Very versatile with all the mounting options. Its a bloody good buy IMHO
