Honestly I’m crying internally. I was looking forward to my pizza date with @Boardnamics

It be like that sometimes. It really do. But you got a whole college education to finish; you woulda been the next one outta town anyways, and it’s pretty hard to surpass your peers when they’re also your neighbor and workshop :smiling_imp:

@michondr - what’s the story with the trucks on that thing? Has it just got enormous risers or what?

Ah, the OG Onewheel idea!
Does it work properly?

I feel you. I went through 3 bottles wondering the same and just gave up and went back to straight cut. Admittedly, one bottle was pretty off looking to begin with.

Im really thinking about soldering motor pulley to motorshaft
Don’t understand, acetone on everything, 648 had cure 72h, works well 200km before loose and destroy everything

Wich straight cut are you talking about ?

idk what you mean specifically - there is a 15mm 3dprinted riser holding wires for the motors, other than that not much unexpected :slight_smile:

I assumed that it had been jacked up considerably.

Isn’t red technically stronger, but specifically for threads, while green is a retaining compound meant to seal metal to metal, and the proper stuff to use for a motor gear?

No idea

All I know is I changed to green for gear drives and was a game changer

For enclosure bolts and stuff I still use blue / red

Yeah my bottle of red says thread locker, green says retaining compound. Green is the right stuff for motor keys. “Bonds metal to metal without the presence of air”

is the stuff red? I have 4 different loctites and the juice is always blue even if the bottle is red or blue or the label is green/red/blue

Exact same scenario here. I cleaned them as well as I could, lint free cloth dried them, used 3 different green loctites (2 different 648s and 680) and they all slipped after about the same distance. One happened after a crash, the other just came after some offroading.

Been using moon’s straight cut gears on his drive instead. Not sure if BN makes straight cut for his setup.

It seemed to work ok with lead-acid batteries and a brushed DC motor, so surely this can’t end up any worse!?

I’ll be interested to see if it works properly myself.
