    Learn how I was able to take parts from a cheap electric longboard and retrofit them onto a super small portable penny skateboard. This electric skateboard is super light and can fit in my backpack so I can bring it just about anywhere! Best of all, the modification is very easy so anyone can do it! Enjoy!

    You might wanna change the bearings with reds or something, I'm sure the ones that came with the cheap Longboard aren't very good and changing them with nicer ones will make it go a lot faster

      Chocolate.Gains on an electric skateboard bearings don't really matter, as long as they don't break you'll be fine, if you have a really weak motor then using reds or abec 9s will let it reach top speed faster, but ain't no body got time for weak motors

    Your video inspired me so I'm building one right now, I bought a used chinese electric skateboard for $50 and a knockoff pennyboard for $10, I need to replace the bearings and bushings, the final build cost comes to about $88, with a single hub motor. I cut the tail off of the pennyboard so it fits in my backpack properly! :)

    No need to drill the board at all you could just swap the hangers (keep the penny "ridge" base plates on)

  • @_tovarisch

    If the size of the penny board was too small maybe take it up a nickel board, it's still rather small but it gives you the space you need for drilling and would've saved you the hassle of moving the trucks

    • @Insertchillnamehere
      @Insertchillnamehere 8 лет назад +5

      Yogee Bear not a stupid idea at all, electric cars use a similar concept call regenerative braking. I'm not sure how or if it would be worth applying to a skate board but it's definitely not a stupid idea.

    • @jackstancil5770
      @jackstancil5770 8 лет назад +4

      Yogee Bear you could, but it would mean that your board would go slower. according to the laws of physics, the kinetic energy you take from the wheels will subtract from the kinetic energy of the whole board. Also, you would lose more energy to friction by the mechanism you use to take that kinetic energy. It would be practical on something very large, but would not be practical on the longboard.

    • @deanlalap
      @deanlalap 7 лет назад +1

      Not at the same time. The overall effect is that you'd be losing energy because some energy escapes as heat, friction between the wheel and ground, friction within the motors, etc.

    I would have moved the front one forward, as on the back one you have the entire weight and also steering with it, in time those holes will crack in that plastic from to much pressure and stress on the back of the board.

    My only issue with this is by (when you dont *need* the electric function of the board) pushing off and using the board like any other skateboard you run the risk of ruining the motor.
    I personally would enjoy a penny board with electric capabilities and the option to use it normally. A "neutral" and "drive" mode like on a car would be ideal. I'm just not sure how to go about doing that. Maybe there could be a wire you could take off the wheels if you want to use it normally?

      Sebastian Schumacher I know that. I've been studying what's inside (and behind) electric skateboards for the last three months. Go look at the diy esk8 builders forum, that's a lot of info about everything. That board is crap, this is a statement. The yuneec ego on the other hand is decent, just slow. But that costs 700€. Anything under has major flaws, that could be overheating of the motor, esc, bad battery (see hoverboards explosions), bad torque, bad top speed, poor connections etc. I'm building one for about 500€, with a much bigger motor, better esc, bigger battery (10s3p liion with bms) and way better top speed (40km/h). And I don't have any tool or previous knowledge. I didn't even know what putting batteries in series or parallel means

    • @sebastianschumacher6218
      @sebastianschumacher6218 8 лет назад +1

      SirDiff considering the time and effort you put in that comment it seems like you know what you're talking about. But there's always some that are good that happen to be cheaper than 600£

    • @sirdiff1
      @sirdiff1 8 лет назад +2

      Sebastian Schumacher those ones are usually that cheap because of pre-order discounts. The fact is that to retail a product for 600, the cost of the components should be no more than 400. Decent hub motors don't come at less than 150 each (and a single hub is not recommended, it's very weak), I know that because I know people who produce them and can have the lowest prices. A good battery needs to be at least 8s3p, that's 24 cells that don't come lower than 4$ each (in bulk discount), so it's around 90 for batteries + 20 for a bms + 15 for a charger, add an esc for minimum 75 (if less it will break), then add the cost of a remote (30 on alibaba), a board, trucks etc and you see that it exceed the 400 $. Now look at the board in this video, it's sold at 400 dollars. It must cost a half. Imagine what's inside
