Took the board out to go play in the snow
Board was comfortably able to go through 5cm thick powder without slowing down much, and was FAR more controllable than any 2wd mountainboard I rode. Also, there are no geardrive casings to drag, which helped it glide much better. If anything, im sure the chains digging into the snow actually helped the board put power down. I was able to comfortably accelerate on powder-covered hills (my driveway) and also stop. For being a piece of shit, it works quite well. Here’s what changed from the original parts list
Battery: 12s8p 50S
ESCs: Makerx DV4s x2
I thought HFI would be a significant hinderance in the snow, but it didn’t really hamper the experience. I was able to start and stop seamlessly. The last thing that the board needs is the towing setup and the trailer, but I dont forsee either of those two things happening soon.
