The "Why Can't" Thread

USPS drivers can’t afford to live anywhere in the Bay Area. It’s crazy how expensive everything is.

Why can’t i build a 12s build wit a 260kv motor.

you could with an ESC or a DD with 130kv maybe … ^^

What can’t people just wear a damn helmet?

What can’t they understand that running off at 20+mph is near impossible without supermaning asphalt?

Why can’t kick pushers understand that our goal is to go 25-40mph and ride 15 miles elsewhere. Not “Let’s see you do a kick flip!” Around and around in a small space.

Why can’t American educators stop telling kids that there’s no such thing as a stupid question? With the existence of internet, plenty of questions are deemed stupid.

Why can’t I ever just reply with a short comment instead of a wordy rant all the time?

Well i don’t want a vesc cause I’ll surpass the erpm limit by a mile.

Well,… we agree so, it’s why I wrote ESC and not VESC :kissing_smiling_eyes:

All I can answer is : there will always be someone stupid, and if you can’t find him, it might be you !
It is good to try and help others, but when those others don’t listen, you should just let it go

Maybe fvt esc will do the job​:thinking::thinking:

why can’t some vesc developers not design mirrored versions of their single vesc for symmetric set ups into enclosures?
One left vesc and one right vesc!

Replying to my own whinging… found a charge only BMS that does an amp per P-group, hooks straight up to the balance leads, Aliexpress BMS , will be living outside the enclosure, for safety reasons, most likely with a fan. We shall see how it performs.

Why can’t people refer to the PWM output of most remote receivers as PWM instead of calling it PPM?

:arrow_up: so much this.

I suspected it for so long, but once I looked at it on an oscilloscope and confirmed 100% that it’s a PWM waveform and not PPM, I changed what I always type to

Same. Even after I knew for certain it’s PWM, I was guilty of still saying PPM in convos for a while until I decided it really is important to be accurate with theses terms. I know bad habits are hard to break but we’ve gotta try.

Why can’t an over-hand (as opposed to in-hand) remote exist so I can wear my puck gloves?

  1. Puck and remote competing for space: puck winning.
  2. Wanting to slam my puck on the ground. Not wanting to destroy my remote.

As far as nr 1. goes there is a solution.

I don’t slide my esk8 and use the slide gloves for fall protection so can’t help you with the other.
