Heck yea dude! You got it running super quick too
Careful with this one if you’re riding in a city, mine kept disconnecting and is known for that

Hmm, I’m not sure if I over-tightened these, or if it’s from riding in sub-zero weather 
My white krank bushings in the rear looked fine though 
I did have them in the wrong way round, but that doesn’t explain the other side being deformed as well

That could definitely be it - some plastics really struggle at those temps

Board has been running very reliably. If you missed it, here’s a short video I made over the weekend of the trails I ride with it:
Decent efficiency for a mountainboard.
I made some small changes today though:
- I noticed that traction control wasn’t working. In Metr I enabled traction control for ADC and CHUCK control modes (PPM was already on) and now it works
- I increased my motor amps from 80 to 100. Mostly for drag racing cars at red lights when I go to the city with this board. If it’s not enough, then I might swap the Stormcore for a DV6 pro…
- I figured out how to get the Maytech waterproof remote to show accurate speed! Set motor pole count to 7, not 14, and then the telemetry data from VESC tool should be accurate

I absolutely love that video dude! Such a good vibe, and the edit is so clean.
I bought a rear LED light off aliexpress
It can be powered straight off 12s battery voltage, which I like because buck converters take up space and aren’t always reliable / can have their cheap wires snap off from vibrations.
I drilled 2 new holes in the deck and installed it with some aluminum brackets from the hardware store.
Since I no longer run sensors on this board I cut off the sensor extensions and routed the wires for the light through one of their cable glands. I’ll use the other gland for the front lights once @ShutterShock lists the BigBeem adapter for Newbee RTKP on his site so I can order some 
As you can see, this light has 2 lighting elements – a top and bottom. Now that the TTL project is opensourced, I might poke around one day to getting the top part to only turn on when braking. That would be cool I think. I also bought some water resistant switches off aliexpress, which I’ll epoxy into the top of the enclosure some day for quickly turning the lights on and off. I’ll decide on that once the big beems are installed.
That’s it for now! These 9" Mudplugger tires show like zero wear, and the Apex Jump drives have also been flawless so far, albeit loud. I use this board a lot, so I’m pleasantly surprised by how it requires 0 maintenance. Good shit
My SL-300 is actually brighter, even on the lowest setting, lol. At least this light won’t blind pedestrians lol.

Also here’s me pulling 5kW while showing off the board to some people outside a bar xd
If I had cash I’d switch to a LiFePo4 battery for when I lock the board outside during winter

Oh, I guess I should mention that the Maytech waterproof remote definitely gets cutouts occasionally in the city. Haven’t had one longer than a second yet, so it’s okay, but I should probably get a puck receiver installed as well and see if I can somehow switch between the two depending on the day. Not sure if that’s possible though Being able to see speed on the remote is very nice though…
Shoot haha I have been lagging on that one. I still haven’t gotten them mounted on my board yet because I was focusing all building effort on the new hummie.
Coming soon! They’re perfect on onsra trucks though and look beautiful there

How’s the quality? They don’t look all that durable. 
Noticeable sparking when connecting them? I wonder if they would chew up switches…
Didn’t notice any sparking when trying them out, I think they should be safe
