Correct, unless a insert is made that rests on the truck and has a bearing seat

We went that way because for not ultra high performance boards it works without an issue and no skipping, our pulleys have a design that rests on the face of the MBS hub, not on the nut cavity, so itā€™s rigid and precise

Yeah, feel free to ask my wife why the Christmas present she got me wasnā€™t hand built by her :joy:

The power of Molicel :muscle:

Powered by the P26A cell (approx 60 kWh of them), this hypercar can achieve a 0-60 time in <1.4 seconds and holds the record breaking finish time at the Goodwood Festival of Speedā€™s hill climb challenge (39:08). Its P26A pack is approx 800v.

I saw that video and saw the Molicel sticker. I didnā€™t know exactly what cells they were using though. Surprised it wasnā€™t the P45B. It seems like 21700s would be better than 18650s.

Yeah I was surprised at the choice of the P26A as well.

Did you connect it directly to the battery?

whatā€™s that BMS? looks like has Bluetooth and nice form factor, Iā€™m looking for 10/12S though.

Also what does the Arduino do? Andā€¦ :crazy_face: are the fans the most expensive part of this project?

its a LLT bms which i wire it up to the lipo pack, it has ble and app for checking delta balance which is much needed for lipo imo

the arduino is a malectrics welder, the fans doesnā€™t cost that much tbh :joy: this whole box is basically a portable welding station
