Hey there, having some trouble with BN 6384 motors & BN 270mm hangars. I don’t seem to have enough clearance between the baseplate and the motors. Did I do something wrong? Advice?
Can’t mount the motors the other direction because they touch the baseplate.
Adjusting the baseplate angle doesn’t fix the issue. I haven’t tried adjusting the gear drive angle – I bought it assembled, so I really don’t want to have to open it up and adjust things… but that may be the only solution
Honestly ur solution is simple,mount ur truck after u gotten ur desired baseplate degree on front and rear. Open up the gear boxes one by one and remove the gear box angle adjustment screws to move the gear box in a proper space that they wont lean and touch anything. U have more then enough space with the hanger and baseplate to achieve this. Ik u bought em preassembled but just cause u did doesn’t mean its gonna work outta the box for ur particular setup. u wouldve been better off buying fully assembled if u was gonna use apex airs/lunas or matrix air II as those trucks will have fixed angles and be on emtb decks generally (doesn’t mean u cant use them on longboard decks tho) with tons of space at the nose and tail to be just attached without changing angle.
I mean I bought the entire setup from Kevin pre-assembled… it’s all his brand. Boardnamics hangars, baseplates, motors and drives. I think it’s fair to have expected it to come ready to go and adjusted accordingly when I paid extra for assembly. If I was using a combination of different brand products it would make more sense.
Regardless, Kevin is looking at the CAD file to see what can be done. I think you’re right though and I will just have to end up adjusting the angle unfortunately.
Looking forward to that vid, been trying to decide what setup to go with for my next flexy street build. I think m1s with 6355s would be a great combo.
