What remote are you going with? I didn’t see it mentioned.

I’ve got the Flipsky VX2 Pro, forgot to add it to the list of components, I was tempted to try out the new VX4 but wasn’t sure if was worth the extra money.

For sure!

My top tip is to preload the bushings about 1mm or 2mm like in that bottom photo. This takes a lot of the center slop away and makes it feel less like a slack line.

I am a big fan of running a harder shockblock in the rear. It makes the turning more divey but controlled. I imagine I’d only use the same bushing front and back on a board I was riding switch all the time like a gravity boarder.

Make sure that kingpin is cranked down tight so there is almost no wiggle in your hanger if you grab both your tires like a steering wheel and try to turn it. Throw an extra locking nut on the kingpin and it won’t come loose for half a year or so if you send it

Whoa! you are the Matrix whisperer! Thanks for all the advice man, I will be ordering a red shock block for the rear and adding that additional kingpin nut

@Pickled_Monkey

imo weight doesn’t have as huge of impact on jump-ability. i find atleast i can easily jump my daily 19kg board the same if not better then a 14kg board i’ve just built. (comes down to comfort on what you ride tbh).

That’s good to know dude, I thought it should still be good for jumping as I’ve seen other people using 12s6p packs. Have you jumped your Iron Giant board, how heavy is it?

@esk8noob

Can you link the esc enclosure?

You can contact @IDEA on this forum or Facebook, for more details about the enclosure. He was very quick to respond to me on Facebook and sent me additional infromation and pictures.
