GT compatible VESC ecosystem

@lia WOOOAAAAH
That looks incredible! I'm actually jealous of the quality of your prints and your CAD skills
Are you planning on making the STLs available? -
@loaffette Thank you <3
I believe StokedStock will be releasing the actual .Step files once they're ready. There are a few tweaks still to do :) -
@lia any updates on this project? I’d love to move in this direction. I had an XR, put 3500 miles on that board. Then some asshole stole it from me at Burningman 😒 I splurged for the GT after that but so far have been dissapointed. I put an Enduro tire on it, a little better than stock, but it still feels too stiff for me. I used to ride my XR in mission or a custom shaping where the “intensity” was maxed and the “tightness” was minimized. I just ordered some WTF rails hoping that might help a little. I’m also on team “F*&@ FutureMotion” after…well, everything (how long has Custom Shaping been “in the works” for GT now?). So replacing their tight ass controller with something open source and customizable is a dream.
FWIW I’m familiar with Fusion360 and can help in that department if needed. LMK!

@lunafox Nothing yet sadly. There are probably some tweaks needed but I'm waiting on some final feedback to make those. We're all a little snowed under with other things so this like other projects got halted :/

@lunafox The WTF rails make all the difference in the world. I love riding my GT after getting them. I recommend Proride Grip pads (or something similar) for your feet. With those two things and your enduro, you should find the ride much better. I GTR'd my board and put a soft Burris slick on it, but TFL is opening up the 6.5" tire choices a little more now so that should help.

If we need some beta testers I'd be interested. My gt controller fried itself a few weeks ago. This has led to the decision to not even attempt fighting with FM over a warranty repair that they'd likely deny anyway based on the countless horror stories online. As I've begun to gather the parts to vesc and upgrade my board, I'm quickly approaching having a whole other board from diy parts. As such, this has me looking for pieces I'm missing. One I haven't been able to find are GT compatible housings.
