hey, who is this guy on the french forum ?

Honestly I wish all remotes had replaceable batteries. Would rather have spare Eneloops than a spare remote in my backpack.

The maytech r2v2 remote charges wirelessly. I charged it in Colorado at the track with my Samsung s10+ and felt like a tech wizard :mage:

Doesn’t help if phone is dead though…

I agree, would prefer some replaceable batteries.

It’s not fun when your remote dies and you have no way to charge it aaaaand your board has loads of juice left over

All this can be solved with a USB port?

Putting in a voltage regulating circuit and USB port, I have thought about it

My Chinese prebuilt had it so I imagined it was useful. Was already planning on a bunch of LEDs and el wires. Simply replanned my board accordingly.

Donno, it’s Antonin Bouyeure on the esk8-fr fb group, he’s on the builders forum.

Yeah man, the ‘small’ board in the first pic is mine. Here is the build thread about it:
