Maybe in 5 years. Theres loads kicking about right now

kubbur · February 24, 2020, 12:50pm

I’ve broken the top parts multiple times, glued them back together with epoxy, vertical screw is essential

Pedrodemio · February 24, 2020, 2:14pm

I want one with 3 high current pins and 6 low for the motors

Zach · February 24, 2020, 3:07pm

Ive been dreaming of such a connector for a while. Oh well

Mikenopolis · February 24, 2020, 3:38pm

Whoa! Max is back!?!? Hi @Scepterr how’s your health?

DerelictRobot · February 24, 2020, 4:26pm

Unrelated question: but do you work in a well ventilated area?

Bindings_McGee · February 24, 2020, 5:32pm

Yeah, I have good ventilation around the entire basement and an extractor that goes over soldering work venting to the outside. Some people… don’t care to

If you were thinking I got my retardation from soldering… well, yes, I did. A decade ago I wasn’t big at fume extraction… ran a fan… but I did a fuarkload of soldering work back then. Vice was taken away from the soldering table to do this motor stuff.

Damage has already been done

Scepterr · February 24, 2020, 6:39pm

all good, thanks

looks like one of those “better then a Lacroix” Meepo Builds

Fosterqc · February 24, 2020, 8:08pm

I’v been trying to figure out where to set up my soldering station.

Not sure how I would set up fume extraction indoors so I might just go outside with a fan for now.

What if a loopkey had a “bench version” with USB-C and had a “ride” version with an embedded crypto USB dongle that functioned similar to a car key? Using the Amass AS-120 connector

So if some dingbat stole your board, they better be able to manufacture a new loop key with USB and know how to use the VESC firmware tools, otherwise it won’t run.

Scepterr · February 24, 2020, 8:42pm

lol they would just sell it…
whomever buys a $2k board for $400 will figure it out … lol

b264 · February 24, 2020, 8:44pm

Yeah, true that.

I guess until then, this is still good

Scepterr · February 24, 2020, 8:56pm

I’ve got a dozen of these laying around

Mikenopolis · February 24, 2020, 9:25pm

LOL. it’s almost like you are talking to me. I bought a $2000 Mellow drive for $300

moon · February 24, 2020, 9:29pm

Oh thats why you have it

Mikenopolis · February 24, 2020, 9:33pm

no way would I pay their stupid asking MSRP unless I actually travel with a board. I see them often for $350-$500, not too bad at that point

moon · February 24, 2020, 9:36pm

worth it just for the endless ride feature.

Skunk · February 24, 2020, 11:33pm

Ouch

Looks like his head hit pretty hard.
Anyone on here?
