That’s ok. Its a question that every skater will have at some point. Most of us just figured it out in middle school when we get curious and flip the trucks around. Or installed them backwards out of ignorance
At least you asked here so you can learn from our mistakes.
got 1 other question which is i need to remove some gear drives from trucks however they have been loctited down with 648
how hot do i need to get them in order to remove? also do i need to remove all pulleys tires and etc first?
thanks
In that case, depending on how the 6P P42A battery is made, and assuming 4 wheel drive, (all of this is relevant)
In the maximum I would use 12AWG to each ESC (10AWG to each pair of ESCs / or to each dual ESC), and 12AWG for the phase wiring.
In the minimum, I would use 14 AWG to each ESC (12AWG to each pair of ESCs / or to each dual ESC) and 12AWG or 14AWG for the phase wiring. In a 4WD configuration you can probably easily slide by with less, but I just personally wouldn’t do less.
For your battery series connections, in the maximum, I’d use triple 12AWG and in the minimum I’d use triple 16AWG.
You can also get by just fine by using 12AWG for everything, simplifying your purchasing greatly, by doubling it up on the battery series connections and doing 12AWG everywhere.
Thanks @b264, I actually bought 2m of 8AWG in the end just to cover myself said up to 150A. So everything directly used in the battery will be 8AWG which will feed to the BMS form there everything else will be 12 AWG.
Basically looking to mimic Pavels but just a normal stack rather than slanted as my enclosure will be quite tight. Being 540mm long with 2x unity’s at each end and battery in the middle.
Thanks, tried that, no dice. When I plugged it in again today, it’s now showing as one of the firmware is out of date, even though nothing changed? I enabled RTApp, but still no data. The remote screen shows the data properly though. I then tried using the VESC android app, but the Bluetooth pairing keeps on getting rejected by the ESC. The remote and status light shows the BLE module connected to ESC B, so I know it’s not idle.
Edit: Tried plugging the USB cable onto the other side, now there’s no out of date message? Still no data, but at least it lets me get to the selection screen.
What’s the best way to cut motor shafts? I’m thinking of using a vice and a dremel with a cutting wheel, but might use a hacksaw because idk if the vice I have will be good enough. Anyone got any other suggestions?
Hi,
Has anyone managed to buy the power switch and LCD battery percentage indicator from metro board X or have something similair I couldn’t see the product on there website only the complete board?
I’m printing this flashlight cover to not blind others but i want to slice it up so i can flip up the cover to have the full beam again. No idea how to build a hinge on that. The diameter of the ring is 46mm so it would have to be quite small so it’s no that bulky overall.
