What's your next sizeable purchase?

[BillGordon]

Okay, crackheads. I always seem to be looking ahead to one thing or another, and I’m wondering what the other esk8 children are up to as well.

My next decently-sized purchase:

50 30Q to build out the 12s4p PCB DRI hooked me up with. I’ll be having a man date battery building session with Linny, and we’ll be using the DRI/Duck Battery Systems build guide found here:

Derelict Robot Industries - 12S4P FlexPCB Build Guide

Whats up you cool cats and kittens. The Robot is busy, so I robbed him blind and took over his build guide plans. The duck’s in charge now. [IMG_20200521_205518(2)] Today we are going to learn about building a “DRI 12S4P FlexPCB Battery Kit!” This thing is as simple as it gets, so even a bunch of knuckle-draggers like yourselves should be able to do it, provided that you have the necessary materials and equipment. Here is what we are making: [IMG_20200522_121135(2)] Build time (i…

The battery is destined for the Torqueboards TB40 deck also generously provided by the perpetually moist folks at DRI.

What’s next for you animals?

ordered subsonic GT40 and enclosure for my “third build” … to go with my 3ds gear drives for my 'thane board.

Honestly trying to stem the spending a bit but started buying stuff for a 4WD GD build recently. so thats hard…

See how Black Friday goes…maybe I can hold back for a while. Plenty of other projects at the moment too. Maybe I’ll pause the parts accumulation for a while. See how it goes

Could be motors - (2) TB 6355s (have 2 already) and 4 economical(ish) V6 escs (MakerX?)

I just blew my whole ass load on the parts for my upcoming flagship build, Mistfall. I had to butcher and sell off all my previous builds to afford it Im really hoping it will be my last sizeable esk8 purchase for a long while, but I know that is wishful thinking haha.

For example, if LaCroix were to ever dangle some shiny gear drives in front of me for these hypertrucks @Andrew tricked me into buying…

[Cfelzien]

Rehab it is. Anyone have a lil pinch to get me by? I’ll pay you when I get my taxes back

That’s in the up coming reveal this month I’m guessing.

[Soflo420]

Fuck there goes 4k…

[RyEnd]

NKP truckssss.

[Saturn]

Batteries and esc’s. Not quite sure what for each yet.

[quinncfoster]

Floatwheel kit, done. I’m broke.

far future?

CNC

[ducktaperules]

Really want either a linier rail upgrade for the workbee or to build another liner rails based CNC. But it’s gonna be spendy.

In the short term I should probably finish the 4wd before spring. Probably not much to buy, just needs time and effort.

@ducktaperules

linier rail upgrade

I’m seriously considering the Z upgrade. Y is ok, X is meh… Z is

Just had a serious conversation on my wife wondering if I’m going to pick a Ducati or a triumph for the bike she wants me to get…I feel like it’s a trick, it’s a trick right?

[Cfelzien]

Need a motor ?

[Soflo420]

I have a moster plus sitting in my garage. I fly minari, how you like that frame?

Building a battery using DRI battery PCB my 6 year old taxed the stickers never to be seen again.
having the balance wires on the PCB is a god send for neat freaks.
Toying with buying a Puck remote, I gave everyone crap for buying them but rode a mates board on Saturday and really liked the feel of it. I know it PPM and no telemetry I cant turn on my lights or tell me when I am having a period but I really want one now.
Waiting for the Vapourgotchi to come back into stock. (I have 2 x GPS iloggers I am playing with atm and I can imagine the Gotchi will be even better) Getting flashbacks of waiting for the next gen enertion remote. On my wishlist before Christmas
Mountain board deck (havent decided + oil slicks)
3D Printer Likely creality Hussyender 3 with an extender kit to take it 400mm.
started building my ebike\emotorbike Battery need to investigate motors Not keen on the 96Volt 8k\12Kw hubs a lot of people are using.
Wife wants an AT board might have to build her something.
Ordering a spintend to check them out.
I did go a little crazy during 11:11 buying some flipsky motors, 100 cells and a but load of 50mm 99% Nickel.

Marry her immediately. And get the Ducati.

Got mine recently. Feels and looks great. Will get it rolling this week if the rain ever stops.
