Non Slayer cruiser |10s3p30q|-Flipsky4.2|-Meepo hubs|

Hi once again in the build thread area!
After having 4 Slayer themed bigger boards, as many of you do I also wanted something lighter and more portable for running errands and what not.
Original idea was a 34inch old school style cruiser deck from skateshred.

Unfortunately the deck dried and separated.

I have been looking for a new deck, but now social distancing got me board, so…

I have a blank deck that I do not use, so will try to route a smaller deck from it.

Now for the battery, it was build a while back using maletrics spot welder, the pack has generic by passed eBay bms.

Now for everything else.

Old flipsky 4.2 with resistor swap (not tested)
Ebmakers remote (unfortunately one of the first ones)
Random 12v car adapter.

As for the shoes.

New meepo hubs for the back and surfrodz with 60mm axles, old pair of e skating wheels.

As for the enclosure I went with the most basic solution.
A rough shape from balza wood.

Heating and shaping 4mm abs.

Still need to sand it, re heat it in a few places, shape the edges to the deck once it’s routed and give an epoxy based coat.

Extras: need to 3dprint risers with led support.
Figure out the remote.
Flipsky antispark is coming.
I think the theme of the board was apearant from the first pictures, so keeping it I will get some green washers, wire sleeve etc.
Originally this board should have a davega some time in the not near future.

I think that’s all for now!

Could you elaborate how you did this?
It looks lke you heated it on the deck without vacuum forming?

I tried to vacuum form several times and only succeed with 1mm ABS then I gave up

I heat it up really really well and just go around shaping by hand, pulling, holding while it cools off and continuing around the perimeter.

Dude did you cut those hubs with a knife:thinking:mine don’t even have cracks after 1000 kms. Lol

Komamtb · April 5, 2020, 11:12am

Mine have seen 300km max unfortunately…

Komamtb · April 5, 2020, 7:13pm

Alright, so I have routed the deck out.

Now need to sand it, drill the enclosure, cut the edges and put some inserts.

Komamtb · April 6, 2020, 9:34pm

Deck was sanded, drilled and wraped.
Ran out of inserts.
Still need to sand the enclosure.

Quick update.
Enclosure after first epoxy top coat and sanding.

4.2 flipsky blew.

So bought a pair of old used tb vescs from the forum.
A quick electronics mock up.

Originally this board should have a davega some day, for some reason I thought it shows individual cells. I don’t t why I thought that. So switched the cheap small eBay bms, to a cheap eBay Bluetooth big bms.

How the board loks at the moment.

Extras. Sanding and top coating sanding and top coating.
I’m waiting for a push to start from flipsky, but for now will run a simple loop key.
Need to figure out the remote for the vescs.
Still need to get some 3d printed parts.

Got Tb vescs in, quickly re worked the wires and connections.

Last coat of epoxy still to do, when sand it hard and paint it.

Komamtb · April 19, 2020, 6:07pm

First two coats

Komamtb · April 21, 2020, 6:32pm

Random progress update.

Last coat of paint. Lacauor remaining.

Lights.

Komamtb · April 23, 2020, 7:27am

Shitty progress update.
Installed the lights and the charge plug.

I went cheapo bcz corona and used silicone instead of normal epoxy, not really pretty, but works fairly well and is easy serviceable.

Enclosure.

The all around price was maybe 15 euros. Curing times sucks tho.

Can’t get my shitty remotes to work.

X makers one freezes, gets stuck, doesn’t send a signal each time when it does work.

The old maytech one, don’t know if it’s the receiver, remote or what, but when Vesc tooling ppm mapping the signal is going all other the place. I used to that remote behaving like this, but this time it never settles.

Noob quotations. Does any Vesc, work with any Vesc tool and any firmware? Do / can these things have something to do with crazy PPM?
