    yea, just fiber is fine, its actually more flexible probably. I would just skip the fake carbon vinyl though, it usually just looks fake and thats about it. fiber only enclosure is transparent, which is kinda cool imo! :)

    think the heat transfer into the truck isnt really working, despite aluminum powder. but the motor runs noticeably cooler just with the alien power mount (compared to enertion), since it uses the whole motor mount plate as heatsink. I built myself a spot welder for just about 80eur I think :)...

    with a dual setup, 2x 6355 is already pretty overkill. i started with dual and realized I dont need it around where I live. its just extra noise, extra weight, extra space for one more ESC, and it somehow consumes more energy than a single motor setup. last time I tried my range felt reduced by...

    hey man, yea, go ahead, Im really really happy with all the vanguards details and can really just recommend everything. on topic of the wheels/gearing/motor: my favourite wheels are still the abec 90mm 75A (not available anymore, guess the 78A is pretty much the same though, dont think youll...

    flex is really great now with 5 layers bamboo and 4 intermediate GFK layers (plus the extra UD carbon stripes around the middle region and as 45° tilted crosses for edge to truck force transfer. basically its just a little bit too flex - just enough so that it will be spot on after I wrapped it...

    Production vs custom e-board

    if you want tidy, the jet spud is probably my best achievement when it comes to craftmanship - I finally learnt how to use a router by then. :p I love flex, not only does it dampen vibrations from bad roads and sidewalks, but its also awesome to play with when you carve. basically you push...

    Production vs custom e-board

    while my first board certainly wasnt better than my evolve, I started to refine and refine and refine - grew really addicted to this hobby and with every board I accomplished something else. by now, production boards are for me too many compromises. stance, concave, flex level, trucks...

    Loaded Vanguard Carbon Cast Ronin Single VESC 10S4P

    hmm, so far I dont find epoxy/bamboo/gfk to be a bad combination. my diy board is very flexy, but most likely because I used only 4 bamboo layer. tonight I added another layer and will check out that Flex tonight. flex seems mostly determined by board thickness and from what I read in silverfish...

    yea, added it ontop to cover wire channels! kinda suprising because that thinn veneer already made the board noticably stiffer. :o maybe because I used epoxy? lhb style grip is too much of a hassle for me and tbh, i like the "white blurr" effect of the vicious. :) still riding the board when...

    Loaded Vanguard Carbon Cast Ronin Single VESC 10S4P

    did my winter maintenance - wanted a more natural look, so I removed the black vicious griptape. under it is my wounded vanguard with the wire channels and 1 layer of GFK with 2 additional patches of GFK covering the wire channel wounds. I bought a few 0.6mm thick wood veneers - typically...

    Anti-Spark Stuck On From Charger?

    same thing happened to my APS switch 2 weeks ago - stuck on ON position after a few weeks of normal use. was particularly bad for me, since my battery isnt protected by a low voltage power cutoff BMS, so it got discharged to 2.0V/cell cause I didnt use the board for a while. :(

    Evolve Carbon AT with 50km+ range

    nope, sorry, dont know much about the esc. from my feeling and what others report (people that use a battery from me): the board seems to accelerate better - maybe its cause the battery can deliver more current. *shrug*

    @okp totally get your perspective - its looking really rbust and sexy on the unikboard! :) @Rikobonito I went with my own pattern now - also with epoxy resin since I didnt have anything else. measured the thickness of the vanguard flex 2 (about 1.1mm with my own added fibreglass topcoat) and...

    hmz, the unikparts LOOK great, but I dont like most of the design ideas. no fan at all of the evolve style drive gears, because they need extra space on the axle, which gives you a larger track width (less grip) and more load on the axle (been through tons of bent evolve street axles). on the...

    Custom Truck Adapters for APS/TB Motor Mounts (here: Ronins)

    cool! please make them compatible with 9-15mm belts! your adapters back then didnt work für 15mm since I needed them 6mm further in! someone on enertion forums made adapters + mounts already and is getting ready to order a batch...

    Custom Truck Adapters for APS/TB Motor Mounts (here: Ronins)

    actually that was my main concern with the method okp showed - I kept thinking about how to line up the motor mounts perfectly and came up with the aluminum angle dual tube: the 2 metal tubes are properly fixated on that aluminum angle and both were pushed in as far as possible on the truck...

    on my last board (the jet spud in my signature), I didnt use a top gfk layer - think you can skip that and just fill up the wires with some putty. :) the drive wheel is from torqueboards / DIYelectricskateboard. its the 12mm version, which is wide enough to actually work with a 15mm belt (got...

    hey man, I added just 1 small patch of glass fiber ontop of each channel (non conductive) and one complete layer of glass fibers over the complete surface just to make sure that the wounded bamboo of the vanguard channels is keeping it together ... used glass because of the conductivity AND...

    this board has been such a joy to ride, Im basically using the board whenever I leave the house. it has held up fantastic so far, not a single issue, no rattling, just pure plush carving with an incredibly lively deck. at the same time its so stable at high speeds, just an absolute dream ride...

    Evolve Carbon AT with 50km+ range

    yes, it does, red led comes on - its also cuts off power when the voltage is too low (some healthy 3.XV/cell, dont remember exact values anymore).
