Build Plan/Mock-Up/Fitment Issues

It all started with a deck and sled. Parts/skin was chosen in the background while I was working on Kurby

I sold the TB6’s and used a SC60D. That move saved a good bit of space from the esc’s themselves to cutting out the xt90 splitter.

Next up, Kevin launched his motors and restocked everything. So I picked up a full drivetrain of 220s/6384s/Adj Baseplates for the thane part of this build. Sir @Nacho was kind enough to hook me up with a good deal on some slightly used Black TB110s.

First bit of mock up





So from that I knew I was close but needed a bit more space. The mounts hit the deck on full lean, and the phases needed some more room because I don’t like them coming off the front of the motors.
A solution was needed, it was in a game of millimeters. My only option to keep a dropthrough config was to route out the mount area to flush the baseplate with the deck…
I was forewarned by @glyphiks that I might go ded if I do this, and was suggested that fiberglass reinforcement was the only way to possibly rectify the loss of structural integrity(though no guarantees). Fuck-Its commenced and I went for it





The deed was one, Hail Sk8tan :crossed_fingers:

I’m not a fan of voltmeters on enclosures, so I deleted that. I milled my own FG to mix as a resin thickener/strengthener. I taped the face, filled it, then fiber glassed the back.
