I recently bought @fessyfoo’s pair of IDEA brackets, just to do stupid stuff with them
Components
- Duality Trucks and motor mounts (from Super Duality)
- Spare 78T spur and 18T pinions (also from Super Duality)
- MakerX GDV6s (sick prize from BOTY 2024)
- SKP Reacher 6455 motors (recently liberated from Nothing Fancy)
- IDEA Brackets (Fess Sells)
- Random 12s3p Battery (left over from a 3 year old stalled project)
- Spare MBS Rockstar hubs
Electronic package
Because I want to experiment with different decks, for shits and giggles, everything needs to be mounted to the trucks. Should make swapping decks, adding wedge plates and/or changing IDEA bracket orientation easy.
Motors mounted with no surprises
ESC gets mounted with a strip of VHB
Adding peripherals only required some minor JST crimping
- Hoyt Puck Receiver
- MakerX Bluetooth module
- Power switch
Shortly after, all mounted with hot glue
Hot glue on a motor controller’s heatsink?!.. shhhh of course. silly question. Moving on.
Battery
Left over from a previous project, it doesn’t have a BMS. I’ll just balance charge it with my hobby charger, good enough.
It gets some F4 plates for additional protection (I’m too lazy to print a proper case)
and gets masking taped onto the deck with utmost levels of care and precision
Finishing touch
Vesc programming was uneventful, got a relaxed 50/-30A motor config.
Thought I saw smoke, but think it was just dust coming out of the motors.
Deck #1: Tynee Explorer
As pictured, my spare deck from the origins of Tynee Curse
It’s a great deck, I hope it doesn’t break. But my hopes aren’t too high 
First proper ride in a few days. After that, I’ve got a long line of decks waiting to be tortured…
