This is why I asked for the close up pic of the end of the suspension/motor mount. The answer is it is too early into production.

I donāt think so, but I itās the case Iād like to know what soft they used

it sure looks like a render haha, or I would want to know what photography tricks were used!
Arenāt you the master of ESK8 rendering?!?!

Oh yeah 
The ground certainly looks fake but the board is full of amazing details, though they have all CAD files so maybe itās 3D, hard to tell

where has this been everyone look at these.
Funny how the same thread can mean these little bushing ended trucks or a 50+ lb beast on wheels.

Looks like kamijuins got his hands on a ecomoblās new board. 4wd baja style plantery gear drive. 10 inch tires

What killed it for me was that 35e battery cell, and the fact itās using lingyi esc.

This thread is not to discuss the shit electronics of whateverboard, mechanics of suspension skateboard only.
@Kai this what you wanted right?

Sorry, couldnāt help it. Itās an interesting board ngl. But dang, wasted opportunities.

It needs its own thread it does not have one so people just keep talking about it here. I was about to make one for ya.
Done^^^ go wild
should we make one to talk about mainly Bajaboard also? seems like baja/propel/cycle are the major players.
I wanna ride one of these just to see what the suspension feels like
I think this has one already right?

I sure like the look of it. Want i want is all the trucks. All of them. And all the bushings. So I can try every possible combination. Current build is going tbdd in the backā¦ highly debating but leaning 3 link in the front. Airs are a close runner up.
My actual aim outside experimentation though is the floatiest possible front end with super stable back end. Back can drift a tiny bit to accommodate. Maybe super tight airs, in theory. I like their 3 dimensional movement plane thing. Front end I want the floatiness I imagine airs have with the somewhat hydraulic snap I imagine 3 links have. Itās complicated. Im also interested in the possibilities of motor assisted turnsā¦ your system looks really fun to play with hence my interest in it.

posting here for discussion of the drivetrain mechanics only.
general Bajaboard thread below.
The reason each board gets itās own thread is so no single board can dominate this thread very much, only the suspension drivetrain aspect we will focus on.
I hope to inspire others and myself in their aim to make a board like this yourself.

I strive to have a G4X one dayā¦ the guys at AVS let me try one and it was a blast, the S2? Not so much

was it an atrax s2? I hope not because the new s2 seems like an improvement over the g4x for ride comfort.
I think it was a reg S2. It wasnāt ride comfort it was how it is riding. The S2 feels underpowered for its size and just all around didnāt feel as refined. The G4x matches performance for size and feels really nice underfoot

I have never seen one with dual VESC 6 and that makes me sad. dangit I thought this was the bajaboards thread you tricked me!!
Honestly I really want to see it VESC swapped then set to max amps so I can see what part of the drive system breaks first. With only 8 or 9 in tires the load is reduced slightly. Not sure I ever saw one with 6in tiresā¦

I think the main issue is:
The worst weight is unsprung weight.
With esk8s we use hub motors or attach the motors directly via a drive, meaning the unsprung weight is going to be quite high.
That is while I at first thought that baja boards are stupid not to use hub motors, I now realize that their setup is actually REALLY smart.
