I think we needā€¦

Continue to improve failsafes in the ESC. Ideally, a way to maintain brakes and default to free roll when thereā€™s any system failure. Same from the BMS side. Bluetooth connectivity, app.
Trucksā€” we need esk8 designed trucks and suspension from major manufacturers. Designed for the abuse esk8 takes compared to long boarding. Hanger mounting options for lights. 10mm axles, potentially Mount integration.

Urethane gear drives! Urethane needs the motor clearance to improve by getting motor as close to hanger as possible. Front or rear.

Direct drives, depart from 8mm axles please.

From the community?
Fusion 360 esk8 related CAD tips and tricks. Enclosure design etc. Multi-user input could help find ideal esk8 part compatibility for multiple setups. Would help our member vendors and members.
lots of new users with 3D printers.

Are there lights where you can bolt directly onto something. No clamping mechanism or straps

Like a panel mount bike light

We need to stop depending on one country for most of our core esk8 parts, and batch produce cheaply and efficiently reliable quality parts - talking batteries, motors, escs, bms, remotes.

Remotes!
I need it to be waterproof, have it to be able to control lights and I need break lights and turning lights on my board

Yeah this default, immediate, warningless, and unsafe ā€œcut brakesā€ when there is an ABS_OVERCURRENT exception is complete unadulterated bullshit

It should ramp the brake power down and if the error subsides then leave it there (similar to an overtemp situation) or if they need to be turned all the way off, fucking have a motherfucking ramp-down of some sort.

Iā€™ve eaten shit very badly because of that before

Within reasonable rangeā€¦ i see decks pressed and finished in the US that are of great quality and sold at reasonable price.

I am a bogan myself I want more noise i would do burnouts constantly if it did destroy my battery capacity.

Maytech split trigger V2 does all of these things and I love the V1. Some people have had issues with connectivity in big cities but I imagine youā€™ll be fine where you are
