I have tried this before. one of the drives spins in the same direction as the threads. locktite isnt going to hold against the full torque of the motor trying to unscrew itself.

no there was a time when flipsky made direct drive motors. they are currently discontinued(wonder why).

that still doesn’t explain the drive unscrewing itself thingy he’s talking about

they would still be either the gen1 or gen2 of elofty drive, it wasn’t discontinued, it was updated to “better” revision

discontinued as in flipsky stop selling them.
I cant imagine a 2nd gen product having such a horrible design flaw… must be gen1.

Nope Gen 1 were fine and gen2 had all kind of flaws (I have them) but with some care they are fine

were ur drive spinning in the same direction as the screw thread?

Well on one side yeahhh :thinking:

these? u mean the centripetal force was enough to unscrew from the thread? :flushed:

The early versions offered by esk8supply were the ones that unscrewed. My first gen eLofty has screws, and the later ones do as well.

the entire red circled area will unscrew itself. the red arrow is where they will separate.

the wheel wont actually fall off it will just cause an insane amount of rolling resistance.

yes, elofty drive, but was mainly talking about the screws on motor can getting unscrew to a point the whole motor can would dettach itself
