Lazy lightning |Subsonic Century 40|eBoosted SS|12s4p40t|

Starting a new build. This will be a very different build for me, mostly because I am not trying to cram as many batteries into a build as possible, this is going to be more on the lighter side. Because of the aggressive drop on the Century 40, a single stack enclosure is pretty much the only possible enclosure for it. Board will ride very low and very stable. Have not decided on the drivetrain yet. I have a nano drive and some 150kv motors that I think will be great on this build. The 3Dservisas nano drive comes with a 1:2.6 gear ratio. In my opinion the lower 150 kg motors with bergs and 6×2s will deliver a good balance or torgue and speed. Just started on this, so there is not much to report. Will update as the build progresses.

Thank you for reading!

This will turn out great I’m sure! I’m planning something similar with the SS drive and urbans instead, but you’ll have the option to swith to thane when you’re hungry for some torque!

When it’s done right, it’s almost psychedelic

I was worried about drilling 20 holes lol, seems overkill to me, but the enclosure came with 20 perfectly spaced sharpie marks on it!! Lol! I think alan went the extra mile on this one :rofl::rofl:

13s is a real odd voltage, I dont have a bms for it or a charger. Also this is not a board for me, I will likely be selling it when I finish building it. Trying to get my nephew into the esk8 game. But if he doesnt want it, will sell here first and then probably Ebay and what not

@sesat lol! I though I was replying to your PM, anyhow, yeah, also 13s is really pushing the limits our 60v rated Escs, many have done it successfully, but I don’t know that it’s worth the risk

I just feel really bad for you when you have to unscrew the enclosure cause you forgot your hex key inside

Have fun x20

Looking for creative ways to route phase wires, you guys got any ideas? I have tunnel risers, now just concerned about transition between tunnel riser and enclosure

I like seeing those trucks and motors finally going to use.

I couldn’t figure out this deck when I had it either and had to get rid of it. Excited to see what you end up going with.

P groups done!
I am thinking thai is the battery layout that’s best for this enclosure, makes maximum use of space, pack will need to have some flex
