say what nowā¦
the new board from evolve
oh for sure, but it seems they dont make them anymore, plus this was back in 2012
oh yeah
cant believe they are tryig to charge liek 3k$ for it
they made some nice inovation but costs waaaaaaaaay to much
oh good
thought this was a recent endeavor
Itās like one of those paintings with eyes that follow you around the room, but stares at your DMs instead
Edit: just realized this is a deck, but it looks like it goes on a wall as art
Gonna need to delete this and repost without text, see thread title
@BigBen That enclosure looks incredible, forged carbon fiber look? How did you even do that?
??
There is not a single piece of text in the entire thread
Text embedded in pictures is ok but no regular text.
If I didnāt flag it someone else would
Ok, Iām new. My bad.
No problem I just knew that you were new and wouldnāt be able to edit it out
Time, patience and carbon fibre.
Thats so cool! So itās a real forged carbon enclosure?
Agreed, that enclosure looks absolutely unique. Iāve seen forged carbon thrown around before, but god that enclosure is on a new level. Making me regret getting my eboosted enclosureā¦ jk
Having not tried it, take this with a giant grain of salt, but Iād think like this would feel similar to Evolve remotes. Assigning two diametrically opposed functions (accel & decel) the same input (squeeze this,) but to different fingers is asking for trouble. Itās why automobile design encourages the use of the same foot for accelerating and braking. Iād also imagine incremental control of squeezing would be trash vs thumb flexion/extension, but that could likely be trained.
I personally love my dual trigger remote but I donāt like that one in the sense that only one function can be active at a time
On the remote I use braking always overrides acceleration
Yes. Real forged carbon first layer with a fibreglass backing. Itās the only one in the wild.
Thatās so awesome. Are you intending to sell them? Whatās the price premium?
Is it just a feature you can add to any existing enclosure?
Iām really trying not to make many more enclosures as I find it really difficult to find the time and costs of materials is rising all the time. The odd one or two of these may surface but itās not something Iām actively pushing.
Thereās reasonable speculation that at least some of the Evolve crashes are from people getting over zealous when attempting to accelerate, but closing their fist and jamming on the brakes which override the accelerator. Reverse whiskey throttling, in a sense. Never seen it happen in person, but having seen plenty of videos of first-timers on motorcycles rapidly going from 1/4 throttle to wide open, dumping their ass of the back end, it adds up. Which remote are you using, out of curiosity?
