Maybe if I have money for skinner one of these days, but probably keep it stock for a bit since it is my first really nice deck to be honest. I like the silver surfer back story though and character design:
" Originally a young astronomer named Norrin Radd on the planet Zenn-La, he saved his homeworld from the planet devourer, Galactus, by serving as his herald. Imbued in return with a tiny portion of Galactusâs Power Cosmic,[5] Radd acquired vast power, a new body and a surfboard-like craft on which he could travel faster than light. Now known as the Silver Surfer, Radd roamed the cosmos searching for planets for Galactus to consume. When his travels took him to Earth, he met the Fantastic Four, who helped him rediscover his nobility of spirit. Betraying Galactus, the Surfer saved Earth but was exiled there as punishment"

@Skatardude10 no (doesnât matter) as far as I know it should be pretty much the same once the circuit is broken the current will stop flowing, there might be some minor residual voltage pushing things around from capacitors and whatnot for a few moments to seconds after disconnect but donât think anything to be concerned about.
The male portion (with prongs) wonât go south. The antispark resistor is in the female portion, thatâs what can fail. Iâd either epoxy it in, or 3d print a thing that can either be screwed, snapped, or epoxied in.
Iâve been trying to use the esk8 calculator to figure out my range, but i have no idea what kind of wh/km my board will have. Does anyone know what kind of power usage I might get from my build? Iâll be using the Haggy drive system with bergmeisters and 6374 190kv motors, I weight 72kg and i live in a fairly flat area.
hey guys, 2 of my friends have diyeboards with dual 5055,
both the same setup battery / gearing /wheels
after finishing the second build, it became obvious that there is something wrong with the first one,
the acceleration and braking are way weaker on it, no matter how the speed mode is set
the difference is like night and day, but other than that it behaves completely normalâŚ
ive written to jason, but id like your opinions on what could cause this behaviour
no, the guy with the weaker board actually is 30kg lighter
no matter that, i tested both boards side by side, on the faulty one the brakes are so bad, its dangerous, its definetly a technical issue - it feels close to as if the board was running with only one motor power wise, but both are spinning up
@Venom121212 silicone is pita to remove fully and he wanted something easy to remove and then followed by saying hot glue didnât workâŚyouâre too late to the party
@onebluesummer I have 1 3/4" of ground clearance and @Venom121212 is right the boxes and shipping are crazy expensive. Now had I purchased in a quantity of 1000 boxes there would have been free shipping and base price per box would have dropped by $15.
If you are using longboard wheels, try the standard default of 11.2Wh/km and if youâre using pneumatics try a higher starting point like 14Wh/km
The truth is, nobody will know what range your board + you will achieve until it happens. This is a good guess. Once you have experience you can adjust the power usage to match actual empirical values.
Your board itself is only about one third the equation â about two thirds of the equation is âhow you ride itâ because you can ride it in ways that dump a ton of power, and you can ride it in ways that prolong the charge.
