Boardnamics M1 Gear Drive + Other News

it should be able to fit:

@Boardnamics

pulley and gear drive flywheel adapters are identical. They should fit, although they might a bit tight because they have thick spokes. Genuine abec fits like a glove but clones also fit, just takes some more gorilla strength

I want to be sure before i spend the $. Someone here might have mounted them, i hope.

@BrendanB02 can provide a pic? since he is probably the only one confirm riding with cloudwheels in this thread

@Boardnamics For the AT-GD on BN270 will it still be using the 10mm fixed axles? (specifically if using Superstars does it need 16100 bearings?)

[Boardnamics]

Yes

V2 baseplates nearly done

[Gabegds2001]

Hey all, I’m having issues with my helical gear upgrade. from first installation to now, one side has been much louder than the other. i can’t figure out why. Please watch the video and tell me what you think

[poastoast]

what’s an ipt?

[poastoast]

maybe one is more greased up than the other?

[Gabegds2001]

The funny thing is the louder one has more grease. Red and tacky

[poastoast]

ooh interesting!

maybe bearings?

@Boardnamics

Once again revisited the adjustable baseplate design.
Now uses a standard bolt kingpin. Easier this way.
Riptide machined pivot cup for more consistency.

@Fosterqc

Can you take the older slider/kingpin parts and put them in this lower base? or is the change topside idk.

I can just buy and answer for myself I suppose, already got a pending order lol.

about the pivot cups, so the older ones and the fixed baseplates use Cal II but now it uses a different Pivot cup?

It sounds perfectly fine to me there’s a chance that your backlashes aren’t exactly the same or one drive may have a tad bit more grease than the other. IMO I think your right drives backlash is just a tad tighter than the other drive.
I wouldn’t worry about it honestly, my straight cut drives will be weird and sound different every now and then too.
If they run well you’re a okay.

[Gabegds2001]

I had the impression these helicals would be quieter than the straight cut gears i had before. Im definitely doing something wrong because ive heard a video of someones elses being way quieter.

Ohh whoops those are Inventor files, not .stl files. .ipt are the part files from Inventor, so you’d need the software to open it (I used to have it, but not anymore). I will try and find the .stl’s asap

** I think these should be it:
BN Idler Motor Bumper - Right.stl (34.9 KB)
BN Idler Motor Bumper - Left.stl (34.9 KB)

Helicals are slightly quieter but still very loud compared to a belt drive system. Take them for a test ride and see how they sound under load. If you just got them they need to break in still

[poastoast]

ah! gotcha

cool beans cools beans

[fujio001]

When will the new adjustable baseplate be available?

[Dizzie]

@Boardnamics When will these new mounts be available? These are

[moddedlife]

Do they have to be painted black? Will you offer them as silver? Maybe have a couple colours like davegas?
