Nope. Will be a super rigid piece bolted together by the mounting hardware.
Yeah those things are beasts, their advertised cycle life is specified at 4.2A charge current so they are very very comfortable at 2.5
.
Consider Anderson Powerpole connectors:
They come in various sizes up to 350A.
They connect together like lego so you don’t have to futz around getting the right bullets together.
Once legoed they can’t be accidentaly reversed since they are indexed.
They are springed so they connect nice and positively.
You can get them on Amazon:

Tho I would buy them from my local ebike company grin ebikes.ca
I finally started the battery
After welding I will fold the nickel over itself and then wrap it all again with fishpaper. The packs will connect to each other in am S-shape. I’ll have to make a parallel connection at one of the ends for balancing.
Folding nickel idea came from @BenjaminF , thanks for that
What’s a good and small 1 pin connector you guys would recommend?
2mm bullet connector

And here she is with a drivetrain no wheels
I need to get @Broly to add some fiberglass layers to the bottom to stop the delamination issue this deck has
hey gotta love a slow build
fast builds are good too…
Dude you are super keen putting brackets like that on the Haya! Especially with it’s known issues
I’m worried about my mov-e on brackets, but approaching 100km on it now progressively getting more comfortable with the idea because it hasn’t snapped yet
Keen to see this finished! How are you going to add the extra top plate to the bracket? Welded on?
I’m going to probably not end up using my design because it interferes with the lid. But the two pieces would be held together by the baseplate hardware.
Yeah, it happens. I said yes to too many projects and now I don’t have time for my own lol

Yeah do all that but also put a cool DJ on it somewhere only if you look hard.
Im curious if they actually allow you to take it on a plane.
We will find out soon!
so cool dude.
what angle do the trucks end up at?
Good question!
UPDATE
-THE trip that this board was made for, CarvePDX, was a HUGE SUCCESS. Both the event and this board went off without a hitch!!
Not to brag, but this was one of the only boards that didnt have any breakdowns of any kind. If you’ve known me long enough @Brently @EDness you know that’s a big deal for me
As for range, this really does get like 25 miles! My wh/mile is 18 on average
As for the batteries going through airport security, it went off also without a hitch. TSA agents took a quick glance as they passed them on the conveyor belt. Same on the way home.
@rusins is making a video series of the rides, and got plenty of footage of playa’
