Water can reduce the bearing lifetime but otherwise shouldn’t affect the motor. Unless you are using the sensors and didn’t waterproof them. In that case, it should be okay if it dries completely before being powered or turned, but I can’t guarantee that.
And of course I’m talking about water or soapy water, definitely not brine or anything like that.
As designed, it looks like it would function, but I would add a loopkey to the circuit as per here
You don’t have to pull the loopkey if you’re using the Unity switch. It’s still good to have, and if the switch ever died, your skate would still work fine without repairs.
Anyone have any idea what the speed / power graphs look like for the motors we generally use? (~6374 size) If anyone actually has a graph, I’d be interested in one for a ~190kv motor.
but it’s less useful for actual ridability. That’s more what you’d expect for a more constant load like an airplane propeller, rather than a ground vehicle.
Anyone has any idea what could have happened in the bit of the log around 20:15:50 and 20:16:10.
For a little context, I was riding when suddendly felt loss of power and due to that it wobbled quite a bit but I managed to stay on the board. Notice that current and motor current go to 0 even with PPM at 1.00ms.
It happened 3 times before around that battery level but at much slower speed so I didn’t care. I have a BKB Xenith V2 running FW5.2 with 12S9P Samsung 50G and Flipsky 6384 190kv.
I heard that it can be bad to have removed a couple of strands of wire when stripping it. Even after using the bigger gauge hole this still happens sometimes and can leave a ring around where the silicone was cut. Should I cut off the wire when this happens or is it fine to leave
It depends on which wire it is, how much extra length there is, what guage the wire is, how many strands you broke, how confident you are you will make it better on the second try, how much quality/safety is important to you, and what your level of OCD is.
