no judgments here, at least on my end. reading was never my strong suit, nor spelling.

Added heatsink, wire management, and room for up to a FSESC 6.6. The box sits lower now as well.
Edit: Getting close to final design. Fixing problems, adding solutions. More bolts to secure the lid, wire routing from the bottom. Should fit any deck and the most popular ESC’s. Final chance for feedback!!

Why does an esc need vibration dampening?
1 Like
I see the dampening as an added bonus to the overall design. On my first build, years ago, I’ve had cables wiggle loose from vibrations of a rough street on thane.
It does not NEED it, but imo escs are so expensive why not protect it in any way you can.

Not the prettiest but works surprising well for my current build.
Piece of wood with dual lock mounted on trampa dog bone mounted on deck. There is rubber between dog bone and deck for additional flex x damper.

Ok so if you did quick swap power electronics between boards you need profiles on the vesc to switch. Is there a way to have it automatically change using so e sort of key stored in the board side?
Swappable battery from ecomobl… (braces for hate)
Hey guys, i got a working model of a quick swap esc case, along with a new way to mount batteries that could be implemented with a rail system like ebikes. Without modifying the deck.
The brackets for the battery are tpu so they flex with the deck, and run through the existing binding holes. The bottom of the battery is slightly lifted from the deck and the space is filled with adhesive foam to the enclosure. The whole system can move up and down without flexing thanks to the tpu brackets.
My quick swap case can fit, stormcore,flipsky,tb, name it. Just need a specific lid. The bottom panel is metal to act as a heat sink if necessary, but i have my flipsky through mounted. The case mounts use the truck holes and leaves room to twist the springs down in both positions.
I wanted to share this because i have not seen this type of battery mount, or quick swap esc case. Please feel free to send suggestions i would love it!

I can’t quite tell what’s happening. Maybe a video demonstration?

Wait fo real? I tried to be clear with pictures, what needs clarifying? Happy to upload a video of something. I currently am using bolts through the brackets into the battery enclosure but i was saying i think rails could be implemented.
The rail system for the battery how does it slide on?
I am using bolts as mentioned but rails on the tpu brackets that allow the battery to slide on horizontally
Hmm ok I guess from the picture I’d imagine it could also just be dropped in from the top. But I’m likely just missing something. Still pretty cool idea.

No it totally could… thats a suggestion. Would think horizontally would be longer rails and more secure but vertically could be faster swapping.
Don’t tell me what to do! …but yeah picatiny rails are a good idea.
Anyway this is my contribution, It’s time for a new box.

man, what a cool deal! I didn’t even have to look at the printer from the last thing I printed earlier today. its in another room with a clean plate ready to go. no mindless printer tinkering!

I don’t know if this is a standard solution, but in general, picatinny rail rails are a durable, adjustable mounting solution for firearms accessories.
this PETG print felt pretty okay.

I’m using this part. I’ll post files and use elsewhere. Rails make too much sense here.

Super keen to see how this goes for you dude!!!
I would be worried about layer seperation on the piece laying flat.
