Iād put it on the board on the positive wire going from the charge port to the BMS
ok
because the charge socket itself is a failure point, the fuse should be inside your board enclosure

You know the pros and cons of each, itās up to you to decide now:
Do you feel more comfortable having to learn to turn more or learning to be more stable at speed?
Also if you want to make a poll, change who can vote to trust_level_0
Are you asking in the sense both your front and back truck will be using the same baseplate angle? Or can you use two different angles?
If you can use two different angles (I personally would recommend). Throw the lower angled baseplate in the back and the larger in the front. This will help stabilize your board at higher speeds and also give you maneuverability. Granted you have your bushings dialed in as well. For that just head over to Bushing and Truck Setup Help Offered
And @RipTideSports will sort you out real good.
Donāt bother man, I already tried lol
Definitely donāt skimp out on the bushings though.
Whereād ya find 35Ā° baseplates though? Preferably not the one $95.99 + $99 shipping from amazon
Hahahaha Ahhhh damn welp. Yep split angles are money. I have some pretty weird angles going on and never going back to symmetric setup. Iād rather not even ride a boat (little extreme). My go to right now 23/45.
It will depend what hangars you have but the Randal baseplates are pretty decently priced in all angles
I here @KaramQ has talents in acquiring hard to find items. Offering my searching service
Also if you can get your hands on adjustable Baseplates they are worth the premium price.
Very true I have Randallās in all the degrees although they donāt fit really well with Fatboy or Tb hangers. You have to fill in the excess space where the pivot cup sits.
Stock Surfrodz in the back, adjustable plates with them in the front
Ohh totally forgot you can also buy wedges and wedge those standard Baseplates to get angles.
Asking for some advice on @DarkVortexās behalf here
Recently we got his board āfinishedā but ran into some strange issues with the ESC and motors (Unity from the Easter sale, pair of MayTech sealed 190kv 6355s)
One motor repeatedly would read really high resistances (about 90 mOhms) and would not pass flux linkage detection for the Unity Tool and the Unity UI. We changed the phase leads to the other side and it went through detection fine, but that same motor keeps spinning backwards on startup (its running sensored FOC)
I think that internally there might be some damage to the motor and especially the sensorā¦can anyone shed any light on this?
@RipTideSports while we have you kickin it in the noob thread. Do you have pivot cups that fit Randal Baseplates and also say TB/ Caliber hangers? The pivot cups that come with the Randal Baseplates are insane huge and canāt get the hangers to fit snug they just come out.
Do you know if those fit with Kevinās trucks?
If it passed motor detection you might just need to invert the direction of the motor in the tool. Which should get it to spin the opposite direction.
It mostly works fine, but at low currents it likes to change its mind. Pulsing the throttle makes it all wonky while the other side spins up normally, the Unity Tool registers the sensor just fine in detection
