    Since you have a Dremel now, you should start cutting down the threads of the electric conduit fittings so the caps screw all the way down. It will create a cleaner look and have less sticking out to possibly catch on things. Your boards are nice. Thanks for sharing your builds.

  • @skatardude10
    @skatardude10 4 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Clean build man! I'd suggest mounting the components, especially the battery, to the deck itself and then use the enclosure simply as a cover rather than to carry all the components. Kydex and ABS will eventually crack when carrying all that weight over many bumps in the road. Fiberglass enclosures do much better carrying weight, so mounting the battery to the board is not as much of a concern with fiberglass.

    • @DIYesk8Builders
      @DIYesk8Builders  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah I have heard other people say the same thing, but it has never posed a problem for me and I have ridden 1,500 miles on my personal board. My concern is that the deck flexes and with the battery connected to the deck, so would the battery. The enclosure flexes too, but less so so it is a tradeoff I had to make

    So your bushings should be 2 duros harder in the kingpin closest to the board, and then your normal bushing weight at the first kingpin.
    Checkout riptide APS bushings as they’re what people use for freeride and downhill skating, and they have a chart to tell you the duro you need

Also... (Have seen a few videos)//// Am curious? does any video show a 'goofy footer'.... riding a board like that. > I happen to have right foot forward on any board. ....skateboard, or surfing. If it was 500-600 dollars? (and, I lived where concrete and asphalt was all around me>) I'd get one! (for kids to use) Irregardless> It's a good idea. And, I wish you well. Am impressed w/idea.

    My diy build I had my VESC drop voltage to my RX under wot forcing it into fail safe of "keep throttle open for 2 seconds" I flew for a good 15 feet. Ive got a different vesc than you but it might be worth checking. Id recommend laying down on the board with full gear to test it just in case it sticks. I fixed it by using a capacitor type SBEC ran direct off 12s.
    Those motors are great, its got way more power than people think.

    Two recommendations about screw in nuts:
    put some epoxy around them before screwing in to seal the up as they can be moisture ingress points and damage the deck.

      Eh, DIY isn't necessarily the best option. You can easily mess up in the building process and spend more than you needed to and prebuilt customer support is nice too. The ownboard evolve clones are imo better with cloudwheels than AT wheels due to the turning behavior of dkp trucks, but rain riding is def limited on those wheels.

      6384 would be more power but still the same speed because they are the same KV. Motor size won't really impact speed, only power

    why did u use double-king-pin for that high speed? would normal king pin trucks not be more stable?

    • @DIYesk8Builders
      @DIYesk8Builders  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes skp would be more stable but we personally like the feeling of dkp more for carving. We also like the fact that they have the built in motor mounts as many caliber mounts come loose over time. We rarely actually go up to those high of speeds but the board is capable of it

    Nice build, yup been there done that. If your looking for sub sonic speeds.Check out west Coast Standard's latest release. You can't go back after a "ride". Wcs " chamber trucks" are stable and wobble free to 40+mph. I haven't gone beyond it yet. I leave this to the kids. Hey! I'm 50+, my days are numbered. I test all the custom builds by psychotiller,personally. So I can personally speak on their behalf. The forged billet units use10mil. Axles. Not typical 8's. They're practically bulletproof. Look it up. The rest of the build looks solid...except... I ride pneumatic. Urethane is too harsh at extended rides to be fun. The 6x3 "six shooters, make all the difference. You lose distance. But gain vastly improved traction and road dampening. Especially, after30+mph. Saves knee joint aches and pain. Besides, it's just plain dope looking.
    I haven't mentioned the "Project Zero" yet. Hmmmm.... Should I? (My new girlfriend, boys. Get your own!)
    I'm going to wait. A new vid is forthcoming.

    That is awesome!!! How well did the gasket for the plastic enclosure seal against the deck with the deck being convex and the enclosure being flat? With it being fastened to the deck you could take a heat gun and soften the enclosure enough that it'd probably form to the deck exceptionally well.

      It actually sealed pretty well, I'm sure it would work even better with the heat gun

    If you wreck the board and it flies loose and hits a curb/object motor side, what happens? For my board should I mount the motors inward or outward like yours? Also may I ask how tall the enclosure was?

      I mean its all up to how it hits. The motors are probably safer inward mounted though. The enclosure is 1 3/4 inches tall

      DIY esk8 Builders dammm that’s amazing, because I’m guessing with the battery pack all along the bottom of the board, the dock doesn’t have much flex right ? And since I live up in Canada and the roads are TERRIBLE I would need some sort of suspension, but now imma be able to put air filled tires on them. Also, if I were to preorder the demon v2, I need to assemble it right ? And for the air filled tires, would I need to buy a conversion kit from like evolve or can I just slid the tires on ? Thank you for the help!

      Quinn Doherty yeah so if you preorder the demon 2.0 we will build it for you and when we release the the video “drop the demon 2.0” and on the store we will already have it assembled and send it out a couple days before the video. If you wanted you could send us an email before preordering and tell us that you want the all terrains inflatable tires we can put them on for you and send it out as a complete. There also is a demon 2.0 kit that comes with all the parts you will need and you can build it!
