ā¦ custom bms
I saw they said the flipsky ESC is 50a dual, so Iām assuming itās 50a phase per motor. With 150a continuous BMS, that is a healthy amount of space for safety to avoid BMS cutouts. Iām not an expert on BMS discharge in any way, but it seems like a reasonable approach.

Many discharge BMS base their overcurrent protections on temperature, so with many you can burst way above their current rating and be ok. Some local dude was running 100A battery through a 50A LLT bms for ages without ever encountering any issues. Couldnāt tell you if that DALY bms does that though.

I am glad you like the board dude.
Itās so cool it feels like a real skateboard to you.
I really have a lot of fun on my least Esk8y boards!!!

Yeah I mean previously I would have just as much fun on my hub motor loaded race kit as I did on my stooge v5 lol.

I love those hubsā¦
thinking of buying the 2wd and a meepo envy so ive got 2 summer boards, any extras with the raith worth buying?

Imo just get the 4wd raith,
ask for the foam wedge and order some viscous grip tape. Rear wedge makes the board amazing.
And stock bushings were crap I replaced with powell hardcore, they are the best bushings imo plastic insert makes less slop and they still feel super lively
Only hearing the wheels rolling on the pavement really makes it feel even more analog

Staying on the throttle when sliding urethane is mentally scary, but feels more like sliding down a hill imo. Too often you loose to much speed and wheels stop spinning, when sliding on flat ground.

Yeah its pretty hard to hold an eboard slide on flat cause we canāt countersteer with opposite lock and stay on the power like a car. Iād like to test awd with some electronic assists. Being able to link up multiple corners would be sick.

Nice sliding man is that you in the video ? Your board looks like so much fun, I wish I was irresponsible enough to buy a third board lol.
Linking multiple corners would be true drifting for sure, and not just me replicating downhill longboard slides.
And sliding rubber and urethane is also crazy different. And doing pre drifts is also fun, but the real meta is slip angle which is what Morgan does, I can do it on my stooge diy board, itās much easier on the v5 though because you control the rpm of the wheel instead of the power out of the esc.
And then again your rider Dylan actually can drift, vs I just slide. I saw in braille video he used brakes to do slow 180 sides on slick surfaces?

That was James my dh skater friend trying that for the first time. Iām still trying to learn puck downsā¦ or more accurately trying to find the patience to learn puck downs 
That was on the Boosted 105ās which ended up wearing down to 90mm polygon shapes haha. Those wheels feel a bit like rubber. Dylan loves the Onsra 115mm rubber wheels for sliding. Those wheels make it easy to do handbrakies and 180 powerslides on asphalt as if it was wet.
The vesc current control does make it very difficult to powerslide compared to duty cycle control where your throttle position sets the wheel RPM. Cars are more like current control but because cars have gears you can limit the wheel speed to make them controllable. What we are trying to do is initiate slides in 6th gear which if youāve ever tried in a video game (or had a fast enough car to try IRL) is not very easy.

Sounds like you should add a wheel speed sensor up front to allow for a limited freespin speed on the rear wheels to get that control back, you guys already have a steering angle sensor for torque vectoring at the motors, a kind of active traction control based off of a front speed sensor wouldnt be that much more difficult no?
