    Psychotiller's 6x2 Pneumatic Wheel Hubs - BUILD

    Solar deck

    Think we'll ever be able to integrate solar cells into an e-board deck, or are they too fragile? I'm also curious if the surface area of a standard deck would even be large enough to charge, ie: a 6s10ah battery. If not, maybe additional cells could be folded under the deck. If it's not large...

    Hi5ber Carbon Fiber Longboards

    http://www.hi5ber.com/ Found this while searching for carbon fiber decks. I haven't seen many affordable options out there, but these seem reasonable. I searched the forum for "hi5ber" and saw someone mentioned them before but I don't think it got any feedback. So what do you all think?

    Advice needed: 2x3s 8000mah series

    I need some advice on how to connect two of these in series: ZIPPY Flightmax 8000mAh 3S1P 30C Should I swap the pre-soldered 5.5mm bullets to something different, or keep those and design my series connector around the 5.5mm's? Using a HK 150a car ESC with 10awg wire. I added 4mm bullets in...

    Housing

    1. What kinds of housing do you all use? 2. How do you have it secured? 3. How easily can you access the "innards"? Currently, I've just got a small Sterilite box (275mm L x 165mm W x 68mm H) duct taped underneath with 6s 5000mah Lipo, HK 150a ESC, and receiver, but I'm looking for a permanent...
