My first REAL EBoard-Parts List

hmm ok ill look into it


this one?

This one:

It comes with a switch but iirc it’s shite

Hopefully the enclosure holds up. I’ve seen people crack them when tightening them down. (Not sure it was that one, just cheaper thin ones)

As for the anti spark… I’ve blown 2.
One on the first day. I don’t trust them anymore.
The fatboy switch is an option but keep in mind it constantly drains the battery when off. (Slowly but still important to know)
Personally i don’t trust anti sparks switches yet.
Loopkeys or bust. There are ways to make the build clean still.
Pick function over form

ok sounds good, im gonna just go the loopkey route i think. Im horrible at soldering so do u know anyone i could buy a xt90 loopkey as well as a xt60 to xt90 to xt 90 from?

that esc looks pretty good ill go with that but u dont recommend using the switch it comes with?

From what I hear it’s best to skip the switch since it’s just bad

ok sounds good, ill just use a loopkey in between the battery and esc

I’m sure if you make a post you’ll find someone.
But i would get your board completely laid out first.
That way you can tape up a harness to fit. Then send that to whoever is gonna solder Connectors on.

I’d suggest to learn how to solder and this is a good time to practice :smiley: connectors are cheap too so it’s okay to fuck up once or twice

This. I still suck at it. Especially on xt90. Bullets are easy. But i have a cheap soldering iron so…

Check out Loopkey mounting. How do you do it?
For ideas.
If you need a mount for it printed hit up @yelnats8j ans his brother

Me too :sweat_smile: I always forget the cap/heatshrink and I always take many tries to get a clean solder. Cheap iron here too…

What’s funny is those aren’t even my photos they were just the cleanest loopkey photos I found when doing research for my first build.
