You are correct. Its an increase in diameter by 50 mm thereby giving you an extra 25mm from the axle in all directions.

Do these look good?
ESC:
Battery:
For battery wiring -
red = copper braid S connections
blue = cooper braid P connection for split P pack
purple = Positive charge port
orange = negative charge port
BMS: Can I skip B- lead since I have B- port, or do I need both wired?
I would have more solder joints and only one XT connector, which is secured together with cable ties so it doesn’t vibrate apart. The female side of the XT60 is on the battery and the one with prongs is on the other side.

Copper braid S connections are generally recommended to avoid if possible. Silicone-covered finely-stranded wire seems to deal with vibrations better
Was gonna use an XT-90, and was planning on using a ziptie to secure the XT90, saw that information before on the forums.
My two main concerns now are the B- port and B- lead, is the lead wire necessary if the port wire is - main already? or should I wire it - main regardless since it’s there?
And the split P pack connection, 1 S connection to each section, and 1 P connection between +/-, is okay?
Unfortunately, the pack is a tight fit, I think I’ll only be able to fit it with use of tinned braided copper. Gonna have to spend lots of time perfecting the space usage. Though I’ll make sure to account for this and vibrations, was gonna put some padding.
At times when I had a tight fit and didn’t want to use braid, I’ve used small AWG copper wire, but just more than one conductor.
A 12AWG wire can carry about the same current as four times 20AWG, for example, and may be easier to fit in a tight place.

Hi everyone!
I’ve been browsing online on forums about esk8 and different boards.
Wondering if you guys would recommend buying a ready to ride board or building your own?
Budget is about $1000USD.
Thanks!

skateboard holes.dxf (2.9 KB) Here you go. You will need some kind of program that can read DXFs, and you will probably have to adjust the scaling because often it’s off by a factor of 25.4 too large or too small (inch/metric conversion)

Five minutes of Fusion 360 for some kudos online? Sounds like a decent trade to me.
Learning to scale images for proper printing is pretty basic, and DXFs are useful for designing stuff. Get off your lazy butt and just do it lol

Lol, i am far better with my hands than I am at computers. I got this with a pencil, protractor and a ruler 
Will be quicker for me to draw accurately than it would be to fuck around with file conversions etc… i will definitely try tho

Give it a shot with QCAD as is. Just open this skateboard holes.dxf (23.5 KB) file, and hit ctrl+p.

The fact that there is zero mention of cloud wheels anywhere on the page should be a good clue
