I made a bet, and need your help to win it. MB build

Well this is very useful info.

@Trampa could you shed some light on this subject.

I really wouldn’t like to toss 500 pounds only finding out I can’t fit cells I am about to order ( molicell p42)

We have grids for oversized cells coming in, no worries. You can fit any cell you like.
@Lee simply has little clue but likes to make wild assumptions.

I can even ride the Model 3 TESLA cells without too many issues.
The average drain is not as high as the average punter thinks.
Do the maths and see how fast you empty 30Ah and how many amps flow in average. You will be surprised…

No wild assumptions here Frank. You are reccomending cells our top battery expert says are junk for our application.

Just curious Frank, will you still be reccomending the 48G when your oversized grids get in stock? :sweat_smile:

@Lee_Wright : You should better focus on your own products instead of bashing other brands products… I thought we spoke about that in the past.

I’ll call you out for bullshitting every time Frank. You can do the same to me if you like too :+1:

I feel sorry for you!

The P42a is one of the cells with a wide tolerance filed in thickness. Therefore we made special grids for such cells. A short wait and they will be in stock.

This is a forum, if you want to come here and speak crap, expect to have yourself corrected.

Now for the science, it’s not just about average drain in our application, it’s also about peak power output. At higher duty cycles that cell is gonna be saggy and not pleasant to ride, the cells will have a short life. Regardless if you can change them easily or not, that just isn’t a wise investment for someone to make and you, as a vendor, should be more careful to not be giving shitty advice.

Nice to know that you made some packs from 48gs and tested them.

Just like you with the most popular cell on the market :sweat_smile:

If you have a bad day you should go for a walk or ride…

We place both VESC HDs in the centre, since a board is way better to ride with the swing mass in the centre. Weight distribution plays a bigger role than total weight. Sensolress startup is now so perfect that we can outperform hall sensors with A.S.S.

This is a 4WD with 21700 pack: https://www.instagram.com/p/CMAE5-FBpXV/

We used different cells in the pack and currently the boys ride the p42a inside this board.

Ja, but on a 4WD that doesn’t matter much if you have the escs in the middle or on the outer edges of the deck, no? :sweat_smile:
Even with a dual setup there is the question if the 225g of a HD vesc makes such a big difference.
There are also other ways to get a good or better weight distribution.
For example using a lighter drive train.
I mean there would be way more mass in the back if the board is having the vesc in the middle but using steel gear gear drives vs. having the esc in the back but using a belt or chain drive.

so far 3D Servisas looks better fit since its made just for HD60 VESC, Downside is its 900g each, and thats 1.8kg just for enclosures.

It’s nearly one kg each side vs no kg each side.

I also wouldn’t use a 900g esc box… :man_shrugging:

Yes, it’s heavy. I’ll just need to figure out the best way for routing phase wires to the motors from the box.

I don’t know how the @Trampa wings would fit haero bro deck…

We have special decks coming in soon.

I swear every time I am ordering something for eskate there is something about to be released that I want to wait for…

Not saying it’s a bad thing that eskate is evolving. It just can be a bit disturbing :joy:
