Interview with Johnny Repair (Lacroix) this weekend

so i’m going to interview the infamous drv wizard @JohnnyMeduse sometime this weekend as part of esk8.news return from its slump.

What do you you want to know? What should I ask him?

I was already told to be nice and not be drunk.

What kind of troubleshooting steps does he take when looking for a problem?

Is Canadian bacon just bacon to him?

Does he see the VESC changing dramatically soon or is there anything upcoming that will blow the focbox and what’s currently out of the water.

And I also vote that you get progressively drunker through the interview. Take a shot every time VESC or DRV is said.

Is this audio? Either way, say your name, not Jeff but your full name.

I’ve got one.

Do you see a future with esk8 going high-voltage/low-current rather than the typical low-voltage/high-current builds of today? High-voltage being greater than 50V(12S).

btw last night i had the brilliant idea of making this thread the interview script. So on top of my own questions, i’m going to ask all the questions from this thread, in order, no matter how ridiculous. And probably some of the comments and ask for his response to it.

I don’t think anyone’s done this before so it should be interesting.

It will not be live, i really enjoy editing out dead space and keeping things tight.

hangouts → youtube → download and edit → youtube

that’s the flow i used for jeremy bogan and it worked like a champ. So it will be video.

He’s a lawyer so will completely understand if you are just high thus meeting the terms of the contract.

In fact he would admire that

Edit: Was thinking of Alex. Ok gag fail I accept
