When you have a chance I’d like a schematic with measurements of the base plate j have a feeling the plate would end up in the angle of the board
If he pm’s the measurements to ya, shoot them over if you don’t mind!
I’m on board either way though! I know a guy that can make an adapter if needed
Same here. I just need to plan it out before it gets here so I dont spend weeks with it in a drawer
I will order one as soon as it’s available…
Guys I will make a 2d drawing of the base plate tomorrow when I’m back at the office.
@LR-designs just pointed out a good question that should be asked – will this version of the Davega be water resistant? It’s very important for us UK peeps
It is for regular rain but big puddles I’m not sure, it’s not o-ringed at the seem between the base plate and the top housing. The housing is waterproof as it has a acrylic screen and the buttons have o-rings. But water could get in from the bottom. If you you want to use in rain I’d recommend conformal coating the PCBs and putting a gasket between the housing and the base plate.
Here is the dimensions of the base plate for those interested.
This is a hole pattern for new school and old school, it can fit both.
There is one issue though the front most counter sunk truck holes leave a small gap where water could get in. So I’m considering removing these extra holes so you could get a nice gasket seal all the way around. But you would loose the adjustable positioning. It would still fit old and new school.
Then the plate would look like this.
What you guys think, would you give up the adjustable positioning for better waterproofing?
Looks great, adjustable positing over waterproofing every day though.
Cool but that won’t fit me I think trampa threw old/new school out the window on their mini Carver trucks
How about keeping just 4 holes but position them in asymmetric way so that you can get a different position by rotating the baseplate 180 degrees?
If we positioned the holes like this it would give us 2 mounting options for old school and 4 for new school.
The empty circles are the mirrored holes (if you rotate the baseplates 180 degrees). The offsets are such that the 4 positions for the new school pattern are equidistant.
I hope it makes sense. I don’t even have a ruler around to make a better drawing, sorry.
Edit: Oops. Wrong. The new school in my drawing should actually be old school. Let me correct it.
Is there a list going yet?
What this guy said!
First … I’ll take two
Second. Trampa
The difference between the mini spring and the atb is in the hanger. The mini springs have inner and outer positions where as the atb only utilize the outter position.
Atb
Mini spring
They use the same base plate. Now here’s the kicker. The baseplate has standard holes!
It’s the deck that doesn’t.
So if you have the mini spring move the springs to the outer position and you should be able to grind out a spot for the adjuster screws.
Actually you might not have to grind it out in the outter position
This is true for the hangar/baseplate but on an unmodified trampa deck, those “universal” holes dont exist.
So it looks like it’ll work on my unmodified trampa deck I guess to say “it WILL work on trampa” would be hard to do because they have several different styles under the same name it seems
