I think this should be in another category: OW porn (you should create it Lia)
Enjoy ;)

Sorry, last one for a while! I'm just stoked about the new look right now lol.

Have you made railguards for the varials? Looks awesome in orange!

I really like diversity and people's different taste for sure.
But in my opinion, I couldn't like it less:

• I don't like the look (in my opinion is aweful, as I always hated the tech rails -and its Eiffel tower ugly look and highly overpriced-, and this is not more than the usual tech rails with perforated holes).
• I thing is not practical for getting any dirt. Which looses the purposes for a supposed All Terrain Vehicle
• I guess in rain conditions couldn't be a worse choice. Same with trails.

On the positive side, this could be lighter. Although I don't think will be too much lighter, and the final impact of a heavy board.
Even thought, I am glad these things exists as people likes it, and I like seen people happy. If people is happy it makes me happy although not being my cup of tea :)

I guess you have all the answers here:

You are more than prepared of doing your own battery Lia!! There are not good options outthere, as you know already what is the CBXR and its cons...

For me is a strategy to look more open against all the modder's hate reputation they are having lately. Besides I think that FM people (the ones doing all the marketing, so the visible faces) were always nice with everyone. Another story is their politics, and how they play from inside doors.
TFL as well, always like to look good, and having good relationship with FM is very good for them, and makes them look powerful against competition too...
Besides obviously, is it always get along together.
But as said before, is very important to keep the pressure, as it is very clear that FM is not doing very well at certain things, and we shouldn't forgive that, but obviously always being very polite.

wut! i want one.

Seriously doubt it, at $700-750, it is a little bit expensive... That's fucking mental
All yours guys, I think that the DIY greedy is starting getting just insane, even worse than FM.

Look how much is just the small cover. CNC is not cheap for sure, but in 100s units production this doesn't cost $20. Is this not greedy? For me is just abuse, the problem is the community is paying for this things... and the prices are increasing for this reason.

Now for a VESC + BMS, we have to pay more than euro600, to start with, having a pint for around 1000. This is just starting to get insane...

The other day I saw a guy in the vescify discord putting his budget and I was amazed about how much now a DIY costs:

600 - Torque Pack Battery
250 - TorqueBox 
 70 - Torque Bumper
 35 - Badger bumper 
 25 - Badger bumper hardware
300 - superflux Hub
110 - Enduro Tire
250 - platysense footpads
225 - ennoid xlite 24
300 - Lil Foc'r v3
725 - Varial rails
       - Wiring / Connectors
       - Controller Box
       - Charger
       - Power plug
       - On/Off switch

2890$ and still missing things!! And this is in US$, in EUR will be far away worse... The GT is cheap!

My minimum start point configuration would be (althought I think the price is ridiculous all with importing/shipping):

450 - XR Hub (appox price)
379 - Little focer
66  - Flowglider MK2 kit for controller box
80  - Controller box printing
275 - Ennoid BMS (any cheaper 20s options compatible  welcomed)
250 - XR battery 2nd hand
175 - XR battery box
65  - XR Bumpers (going cheap)
250 - Kush footpads
??? - Front footpad sensor (car seat, stompies, XR/pint sensor)

Which is almost EUR2000 and I am missing things for sure...

What do you think?
What is your ideal configuration and BOM?
:)

@lemur this is absolutely stunning man!! Congrats, you did it!

@lia said in Trace Map Continued:

Finished mapping the traces (I think. I don't see anything I've missed yet)

Still need to tidy up the schematic and find the values for a bunch of components too. The inductors and diodes will not be fun >.>

Is just impressive. If you could make it work, it would be the resurrection of dead XRs...
If you could beef it up (like doing a 18s-20s), and make it much better, then this would be the vesc killer... I would be your first customer
White looks amazing BTW...

@lia Have you found a buster controller? I guess US is full of them... Here in Europe is a lost cause...

Jeez, don't like them at all. Prefer these ones by FAR:

Sorry, just seeing this! Nothing special, it's just vinyl wrap. Less than $10 on Amazon plus a sharp blade :)

But do you think this will protect against falls and collisions?
Can you send me the link on Amazon?
Thanks

Very well executed Lia. Very well done :)
