Do we have a thread for arguing if it’s better to mount components to the deck or better to mount into the enclosure?

I love your work Jan, but this triggers me so bad :sweat_smile:

We should start one. I believe there’s no doubt that building into the deck is superior though. :slight_smile: It makes servicing so much easier. If I want to tinker with the internals I just remove the enclosure. No need to worry about disconnecting any cables. No lifting a heavy enclosure with all the stuff in it. Nothing falls off. Completely hassle free.

Obviously the limitation is that you can’t have buttons/connectors/loopkeys directly on the enclosure. Otherwise you would inevitably have wires connecting the enclosure with the components attached to the deck, at which point removing and reattaching the enclosure is no longer hassle free.

But… what if you need to service the deck? :sweat_smile:

I’m just scarred, i opened up a bioboard once so that I could do a frit job on the deck…

Everything was attached to the deck and liberally siliconed. I buttoned that bastard back up and sent it on it’s way :sweat_smile:

I’ll make an update to my hybrid switchblade thread; basically I bought a loaded coyote and it’s a much better combo :slight_smile:

Kneepads will also be bought. Might also buy the bell super 3r as a second helmet.

I have both of those helmets and applaud your choices. Both are comfortable with a good field of vision. I hope to never find out how much protection they would actually provide my head though :wink:

All thanks to this forum.

Let’s hope they fit on the first try.

This too :smiley:
