I really like that mount. I guess the plate is steel. Never see that. Nice and thin but still looks strong

Thanks ,... yes it's 3mm stainless steel. Allows almost all of motor gear to be inserted onto short Sk3 motor shafts.

How is the battery charging handled?
Seems like you could fit a BMS in there, or are you running them blind (no balancing)?

I have no bms , after seeing another member here make a few packs with high quality batteries and having no drift whatsoever, i decided to try the same .

Charger charges to 42V and Vesc stops discharge at desired voltage.

I will check my pack from time to.time to see if they stay balanced.
