The production process is causing some minor scratche, that is unavoidable with this technology. We would love to have them 100% free of markings but that would drive the price up beyond an acceptable level. Your deck has more imperfections than usual. If you contact out HQ, I’m sure that there is a solution for you. New BigBois are hopefully arriving soon. The deck you hold in your hands is one of the very first BigBoi decks ever made.

Sensor cables - 22/24AWG stranded silicone hobby wire.
I would highly recommend 6pin locking aviation/cannon connectors as termination for these as well.

Haha, the specific type I’m after is one I’ve actually had trouble finding. Sure I can probably dig it up on Digikey tonight, but it’s the one that can be seen on @haggyboard.timo’s site under sensor cables IIRC

Yeah, I’m not familiar with the connector you speak of.
Oh, it actually is just a basic aviation/RCA style. I remembered it being much more compact. Maybe not a great idea at that size. Locking Molex is still a good option.

The battery and bits have a arrived. So has the enclosure, so I got them fitted up to see how it looks.
I’ve attached the box to the board with bolts through rubber “tap washers”, which sit inside the moulded feet on the box, to allow for board flex and some vibration damping:
The enclosure on the board:
I don’t want to attach the anti-spark until I’ve got the vescs, to decide final layout.
The vescs will be mounted inside the lid of the enclosure.

Oh, and I Sharpied the edges of the board in black. Which has come out a burnt metallic red colour after drying. I’m ok with that.

Turns out I’ve got a pretty vacant summer now!
Fortunately, I’m due a decent compensation payout from a serious injury, and I’ve got myself a food delivery job, so this project shouldn’t be falling dead in the water…
Really hoping to get in on the 2nd test batch of the Neobox V6 escs…

Ah, thanks for the warning. I might give it a dose of hot glue 
Yeah bro, tough times for everyone at the moment. Those of us in event work have been shafted a bit.
So glad I was able to find some work delivering hot meals to quarantined homeless people in London. Helps them and helps me

Just ordered the motors from Maytech 
You get a slight discount from their website price if you email them directly.
For anyone in the UK (probably eu too), if you pay in HKD instead of USD, it works out a bit cheaper too

Just stumbled on this thread, great looking board, well done!
But what is even more impressing for me is the combination of you with the board. I’ve never seen such a perfect colour match of board and rider 
. Shoes, shoelaces, trousers… now I wonder what the rest looks like. I’m quite sure you have a black/grey helmet with some red stripes?

Bloody hell, we’ve got Mystic Meg amongst us!
I’ve got a grey helmet and grey knee and elbow pads 
(Although my shoes n laces are actually orange 
)

What can I say… I like it!

What size braided sleeve do I need for 12awg motor phases wires, in bundles of 3 plus sensor cables?
I’ve had a little Google, and reckon 12mm?
I’m eyeing this up, but not sure if black n red sleeve will be too much once I’ve had my etoxx kit, Inc bullbars, anodised in red
(I’ll find somewhere more local)
