Archived: the OG noob question thread! 😀

Yes. Theoretically a motor should be able to get up to its rpm limit regardless of weight given enough amps.

You will see the losses start stacking up with heavier loads because you’re using more amps to achieve the same rpm and there are more heat losses with higher amp draws.

On the flip side, when your board is unloaded on the bench, it’ll pull low amps and get to top speed quickly without racking up as much heat.

@Athrx generally you want a lower angled rear plate for stability at speed. I’m running 50 in the front 30 in the rear.

sanyo 20700b @ 12s6p
p42a @ 12s5p
40T @ 12s5p
???

for.a custom prototipo. which would you chose? help me decide.

molicell is spec king, makes the choice easy for ya.

Can you really fit an extra cell in in each P group if you do 20700?

We learned not to trust specs with the Samsung 25R ( on paper, the 25R is great )

It’s all about the discharge graphs and real-world usage reports

RyEnd · May 28, 2020, 1:49am

While I can’t point out someone who has put these through the ringer in our application yet… only time will tell, but all discharge graphs/tests point to it being better than the 40T.

yes, if I do something “clever”.

I also saw 10s6p 21700s 50E from @Skaterboy58’s thread in the old place.

I think with 21700s there’s not enough room for two more 6p in the front compartment.

Is it just me or is usps taking multiple days just to scan a single item…

Or they just don’t scan anything at all

Scepterr · May 28, 2020, 2:32am

it happens 🤷

Anyone has experience with a 15 degree trampa deck? If so how is it? Might have found a deal for one.

kadeanderson · May 28, 2020, 2:37am

It’s horrible

Venom121212 · May 28, 2020, 2:56am

I was riding a 20° tipped mtb deck and it was also sub par.

30-35° is the sweet spot

TheMrLarin · May 28, 2020, 2:58am

Thanks for the tip, i used to have a mbs core 95 and it was fine. But i don’t know what angle is on there

Venom121212 · May 28, 2020, 2:58am

That’s 20° as well. Ats 12 trucks?

RichardsGore · May 28, 2020, 2:59am

For my dual focbox set up took a shit today, just wondering what esc I should buy now, I know the stormcore is coming out soonish and torque board is coming out with a new one as well, i really don’t want to wait for those and just want some recommends, money isn’t an issue.

mikEEE · May 28, 2020, 3:03am

how do i get to this in the vesc tool , got my bored all hooked up

b264 · May 28, 2020, 3:05am

That’s not in the VESC Tool looking like that, but those settings are under Motor_Settings > General > Temperature

Ancient · May 28, 2020, 3:07am

Ok, you’ve got money, but what about your soul? enertionraptor.shop

Davewesh · May 28, 2020, 3:12am

Anyone know where to get some ATS Truck Motor Mounts? Buddy of mine was trying to run some 3d Printed mounts and took a dive today after they (mounts and Pulley was 3d printed) fused together.

Looking for a good metal alternative and not sure he wants to upgrade to the Matrix II trucks + get mounts.

RichardsGore · May 28, 2020, 3:16am

Ive seen shit saying that it isn’t accepting payments, im just scared cause so many people have been screwed by him.

b264 · May 28, 2020, 3:53am

He is a liar and a thief who’s been known to embezzle. Why not shop there?
