After building my first board see HT Build One I’ve decided to build a smaller compact board with a taller mast. I have used all my experience from the first build to design and build the second board. I couldn’t find a suitable blank so I bought my own styrofoam block and shaped the board myself. I will include many pictures and videos to help any would be builders.

Built my 14s12p battery using Samsung INR21700-40T (40T3) 4000mAh - 35A. I ordered my cells and nickel strips from NKON.NL Samsung 21700. Using the K-Weld I was able to spot weld the strips to the cells. The silicon coated wire is 6awg or 13mm2. Insulation paper, Koptan tape, bullet connectors, 7p balancing wires, and the waterproof connectors are all ordered from Amazon or Aliexpress. Hobby chargerand balancer is a ISDT Q8
