Cannot fit three boards

Post by r0b0tn1k »

Hey guys!
I tried setting up the ranger deck, but it seems there's no space vertically?
I am looking at the setup guides, and I'm using the long pins, but there's just no room, the deck barely sticks on one side in the pins.
I'm using this setup: Image, but there's no room.

Please help a brother out.

Hey r0b0tn1k,

Is there a deck on the bottom? It looks like its being stopped from going all the way up.

We actually ran into this issue as well since we had a custom deck that was a bit bigger. What we had to end up doing was removing that black part from the pins and individually pushing them through. I can probably post pictures later tomorrow or Monday.

Thanks.

If you mount the battery the other way around so the usb connector is not in the way?

Hi Lombazombie,

The bottom deck is an optiflow deck.

I had solved my problem like this:
I wanted to solder the two long connectors, but I am bad at it and threw two of them in the garbage.
So next I put the multiranger on a new set of long connectors, and 3d printed a box just a bit taller than the battery. I used it to basically guide the multiranger deck on the long connectors to the remainder of the decks. Then very slowly I soldered the two connectors together.
Even with that, its a bit crooked, but at least it works.
I suggest you guys find some pin-connector-thingie that you sell, so we dont have to resort to soldering.

Here's the end result.

If you want three boars the solution r0b0tn1k showed is pretty good. Else what if you do like this?
