I finally got around to doing my Carbon GT recently. Finally. finally
A simple “I’m going to put new cells in here and keep EVERYTHING ELSE stock” turned into “the only original Evolve parts are the deck, the lid, four heatsink bolts, and two plastic wire clamps”
I’ll still call it a Carbon GT, Ship of Theseus style.
Did you use thermal compound between the two parts of the case? Even though it’s a small area, I think it would do well to transfer heat from the main body to those plates.
Good on you figuring out how to mount these for external airflow. It’s unfortunate that in stock configuration without thermal material it seems this probably won’t make too much of a difference though… Kinda wish the electronics mounted on the other side, with a fancy/pretty/clean top instead of a fancy/pretty/clean bottom with no mounting options where the heat actually sinks to.
Thought you only had 1 neobox? Did you pick this one up from someone else or did the second simply not have any production issues? or am I just forgetful?
yes it’s really unfortunate how the case and heat sink are built almost completely upside-down and not really very useful I guess you could make pill cases out of them or something
I did keep all of that. If it’s not broken, why fuck with it?
Then the motors with loose magnets did not work well at all with HFI, and the mounts only fit Racerstar, so I just ended up putting new trucks / mounts / motors / wheels / et cetera
