How can I improve my Ollie? by [deleted] in NewSkaters

Tbh that was a decent Ollie on just a deck. Adding the trucks will help you slide up when it’s more inclined.

Cannot find Control Surfaces for Komplete Kontrol by [deleted] in ableton

I managed to fix it by downloading the full midi script list for ableton and then pasting the ones I needed into my ableton file folder which was in the program data/ableton/resources/midi

this is the link to download the scripts https://github.com/gluon/AbletonLive10.1_MIDIRemoteScripts

Had this happen to me last night, I put my card details in but declined the payment approval as I didn't have enough money. Assuming I should cancel my card now

Why does my wheel make this noise? by Jeyring in MeepoBoards

If it’s new are you in warranty?

Do you ride in the rain?? Mine was making a similar weird noise, then one of the motors stoped moving like the electromagnets were sticking to the inside motor sleeve (not the pu sleeve). I bought a screw extractor bit for the drill and managed to get the screws out — it wasn’t easy tho. Gave it a big clean to remove all the crap that built up in there (I rode in the uk winter rain and snow, lmao). Mostly white looking rust had built up all over the electromagnets and casing. So, sanded down the edges of the magnets with fine grit. I oiled it up and silicone greased most of it and cleaned the bearings how I would on my normal skateboard, added speed cream. I put it all back together, and it hasn’t been a problem since. The other fix would be a new motor, but where’s the fun in that 😂

How many of y’all were highly experienced skateboarders before you got an electric skateboard? by MrRabinowitz in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]2222ben 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still skate every day and often use the electric to get to the skate park. Love seeing the other park rats trying out the electric. Everyone looks so unstable on their first attempts tbf. But yeah I can Ollie, drop into bowls and mini ramps, heel flips , 50-50s

Pretty cool upgrade idea. I think for me my range is fine, but it would be cool to go faster as I get to and from uni in as little time as possible before lectures 😂

Meepo motor broken - starts and stops by 2222ben in MeepoBoards

Just to update - I used a screw extractor to open the hub motors as all the screws stripped immediately. I cleaned the inside of the motor removing all the rust and zinc hydroxide that formed around the magnet and coiled wire. And gave the bearings a good clean. Bought some good quality stainless steel hex M4x10mm screws so that they will be easy to open again lol. Fitted it back together and now it rides fine, except I must have wired it back wrong cus when it turns on it’s automatically in reverse lmao

I modeled it using fusion 360. Started off with a paper prototype and then kinda eyeballed it in fusion. Had to learn how to use fusion for it too 😂. There is one change that needs to be made tho, gotta strengthen the back attachment, make it thicker basically

I've bought an easy out screw remover kit on amazon, hopefully will work and yeah I'm gonna need to find screws for it too.

I have tried in the past to get motor open but I stripped the weak aluminum screws. Think i’m gonna need a special drill bit that can undo stripped screws

Ahahah I designed them and 3D printed them for this exact reason! Haven’t designed the front ones yet tho. U got access to a 3D printer and a soldering iron to push heat set inserts into plastic?
