You powering a buck converter for the lights off the main battery? Wonder if the buck is just drawing too much current when powering the lights is it an issue without remote control of the lights? Some caps on the power out to the lights might help to give them some buffer or more caps on the power into the esc so spikes donāt get into the power system so much (do this with quads to clean up the power if getting crappy video signal cause of dirty power going into vtx and/or camera)

Well, ask me in a few weeks when Iāve got some decent mileage under my belt.
But if they donāt break under normal use theyāre already ahead in my books.

Why? Are you breaking Matrix II hangers regularly?

Back in the day, when you were still just a glimmer of hope in your papiās eyes, I had a set of Matrix 2 that just left a lot to be desired in the QC department. Main hole for the set screws wasnāt even consistently spaced from hanger end & eventually the baseplate started cracking.
Beyond that, Iāve seen more broken Matrix2 hangers/baseplates than any other channel truck. At least a dozen over the last 2ish years between builders, here, & Facebook. I realize the newer ones have stepped up in quality, but there are better options out there now in my personal opinion.
With said said, Rockstar2, MBS/Kenda Tires, & F5 Bindings are pretty much must-have gear for me, so I am excited to see what new stuff theyāre bringing to the market in the future. Matrix2 are just not for me.

I saw leiās etoxx hubs that weāre mildly wide in person, it was good. Brandon has literally put the rubber to the road with widened trampa hubs (metroboard spec), those are great. Daveās wide 150mm tires are around and also look enticing.
I need 200mm tires for my routes. Everything else is okay to pretty good.

Lol how young do people think I am around here.
Judging from @moonās thread on that hole spacing Itās still not the same spacing from one truck to another.
I havenāt used my trucks enough to have an opinion on them and among all
the shiny new hanger and trucks those 3DS hangers are the ones that interest me most. Well thatās if I ever change my opinion on that company.

Mark my words, were gonna start seeing a lot more people building carvers & eMTB over the next year. Some really great options now and in the near future. Just wait until you see what LaCroix has planned. 
The quality of these Fatboy320 is top notch though. I picked up a second pair of them for my Haero eMTB build, just waiting on the new SS gear drive.
Hyperbole darling

I donāt doubt the quality and they would probably be better suited with Etoxxx baseplates than the MBS hangers I am using right nowš
