      There is probably no way you would make more of these to sell them? I am really interested in a board as strong as this one. If you have used 2 motors of 3600W, it means that the board has 6800W ' under the hood', which is 9.1 HP. It would be fantastic to have it limited at a 30 MPH topspeed and use the rest of the power of the engines for the hill climbing, simply because no one wants to walk up a hill if you have an electric skateboard.
      Simpler text: will you make more of these? I would be very interested and it would be a no-doubt situation for me if it would be sold for less than 1000 USD.

    I'm 57yrs. old. been skating for over 50 yrs. with the best skaters around. always a need for speed with no fear. had a few downhill runs of over 80mph. fastest 86.7 when a cop gave me a speeding ticket. had a weedeater skate back in the late 80's. went 30-35. wanted to find another. maybe because I'm impatient I couldn't find one with the same qualities, small engine, SIMPLE, fast etc.. did I say I was impatient? ok. came across DIY video. HAD to get it. I GOT IT! DUAL MOTORS. I put the skate together with my own deck with a kick tail. needed this because I wanted to have more control. the only problem I had and have now is to program the motors. did I say I was an 'eddiot' (my name is eddie)on the computer. I brought the board to a computer store and this young kid hooked it up. did he ever! first I found out how much power it has. next, how much acceleratation. they say that they couldn't find arider to go open throttle. I know why. I only got up to 45 and still had throttle left. hell, you can be going 25 and punch it and still fly off the back. oh yeah, impatient so I didn't read much. found out it has a brake. if I knew that I wouldn't have got that ticket running the red light. I'll post a video soon. eveready..

  • @CamaroRick
    @CamaroRick 4 года назад +2

    This inspired me on my build. 1 year in and I still cant do full throttle either. Its a beast. I do have 1 important recommendation. Make sure you run auxiliary 12s to 5v type sbec to power your RX / direct from your batteries because 60% throttle can cause the VESC to drop the 5v below your RX's threshold and force it into fail safe. Fail safe on my RX keeps the last commanded throttle signal for 1 full second before shutting down. In my case it was still flying in the air at 30mph before it cut off. I was tore up for a few weeks. Def glad I wore a helmet!

    Ok ladies and gents get ready for the closest thing to a full tutorial that youll get. Ive suffered through this, being my first build as well. All those parts that they have up there? Solid, the description stuff is going to be what you want. Specific things that you will need additionally.
    MOST PARTS IN DESCRIPTION
    Y-connectors for connecting batteries
    a tool to charge the lipos (these need to be wired in series)
    a Y-connector for the VESCs (VESC is short for Vsome-dudes-name Electrical Speed Control)
    3.5mm male bullets to 4mm bullets adaptors(these are the VESC pieces that connect to the engine, theyre not the same size)
    Saturing capabilities and equipment
    lots of time on youtube tutorials
    Basically what your going to want to do is get all of the things that they have linked in the description as well as each of the things that I listed above. Major things to look out for, make sure the engine you get is 8mm because that is the size of the mounting piece, you could probably just go to torque board and get their engines over hobbyskys. Once you have each piece you connect 2 of the batteries together creating 1 cell and wire up the remaining 2 cells to form another. Use the XT60 (yellow connector) for this as it is what the VESC uses. An additional note, buying the focbox unity will work better since it can run two motors with a single connection, eliminating some steps. Once you have your batteries set up, you will need a way to charge them. I cant help you if you want to use a BMS but another option is a hobby device that charges these batteries individually. Once you have your batteries set up, connect them with the Y connectors to form your cell. The board mounting kit etc will have other videos explaining them. Take the cells (2 sets of two if you get the vesc and 1 set of 4 if you get the unity) and attach the receiver node that comes with the controller to the small black piece that extends off of the ESC, with two VESCs you will need to place a Y-connector from one to another THEN connect the receiver to the new piece. The next part that youll have an issue with is connecting the engine to the VESCs. Youre going to need to get 3.5mm male bullets to 4mm female bullets if you use their listed parts. Now your engine is connected to the VESCs that are connected together by a Y-cable that connects to the black pieces off of both, each of these are powered by 2 sets of 2 connected 5Ah 50c batteries. Watch a video about how to mount your motor to the board.
    I got this information the hard way and I only hope to help someone in the future so that they will not have my experience.

      This is an old comment but I’ve stopped using it almost immediately. There’s a reason that these guys don’t ride it and it’s a good one. I topped out a little over 40 before deciding that I not worth it to go any further.
      For those that are interested in having the fastest thing available here you are but it’s not useful for anything else. I’ve never even attempted to test the range but at full output I’d say between 2-5 miles. It’s definitely everything that they’ve pointed out and more, having used it full throttle I can personally attest to this. Feel free to build this board but be warned, there’s a large price tag and a lot of other boards that I would highly suggest purchasing first. Imagine being strapped to a rocket that you can easily fall off of....

    @TheCarPassionChannel 3 года назад +1

    Man, at 2:23 you answered so many of my questions. There seems to be such a range of performance on different boards with similar motor wattage and voltage levels, so the differences really might just be all in the battery/esc setup.

This thing was even faster than I expected. One time I got speed wobbles close to 40mph, disclocated/broke my left shoulder and had to get surgery done by a specialist, great fun!

  • @shanewade5654
    @shanewade5654 6 лет назад +2

    I love the build, but I would recommend giving a dual diagonal setup a try. That means putting one of those massive motors on the front truck driving one wheel, and the other on the rear truck driving the opposite wheel. Much like an all wheel drive car, this configuration offers greater stability, smoother braking and acceleration. Give it a go! It might be able to tame this rear wheel drive monster.

    This was a wonderful comparison! Production board vs DIY, when it comes to high performance and speed, marks usually will go to the DIY board. That's not to say that a production board like a Boosted is bad however. My favorite metaphor would be like buying a Toyota Camry vs a modified Mustang. The Toyota Camry is more turn-key and works great however will not always be the most exciting in regards to performance. The modified Mustang can hit crazy speeds but will take much more maintenance and tuning to be sure it's always in good shape. I look forward to seeing more from you guys. I thought this review was just what the esk8 community needed. It was very polished, full of scentific information, and yet very entertaining. New sub here 😁

Screws cut into the truck and comes undone ever third ride.

      Honestly, I could agree about the motor mounting position, mounting above-deck could be better, but then you have to figure out how those belts are going to stay tensed without snapping, as that could be catastrophic at sixty MPH.
      The LiPos are certainly a big concern here, and need to be well protected, but I've also seen those little bois get abuse in RC Stadium Super Trucks that (actual speed) go faster than this board does. So semi-adequate protection like they have here goes a long way.
      But I'd protect them more, because we're talking high-speed here, and that always does fun things.

    no doubt the board is more powerful than anything else. The tests in the video are on a wet road. Would be cool to see how well the motors perform in better conditions and if improving the board will improve overall stability, such as higher grit grip tape and a harder bushing. I see in the description the board is using some venom cones bushings. i would have went with tall barrels.

    do you think this engine would have the power to spin turbocharger with 1:9 ratio ? would need 60 000-90 000 rpm at the impeller. or should i just try it out because the motors aren't that expensive

    This is a great build I wish I had it but can't afford an eboard at the moment. I've built a board with my friend 4 years ago that did 40 or so but my setup was just terrible it was highly unpredictable. I probably can Max out the setup you have there I would just need to know how to build it.

    • @microwhoop7420
      @microwhoop7420 5 лет назад +3

      @@wrth or 4 motors one for each wheel just like all the best electric cars. This would also add the ability to do a simple gyro based traction control system although that could likely work pretty well on their rwd version as well. Anyone familiar with a little arduino and pid loop programming could get one going for litteraly a couple dollars and without too much effort. The real problem would be finding someone dumb enough to ride it for the tuning process. (With that said I'd be dumb enough)

    • @szejer4184
      @szejer4184 5 лет назад +2

      I think the reason most people avoid this is because putting excessive force pulling the front wheels forward will inevitably limit your ability to apply force when maneuvers are required. If all you wanted to do was go in a strait line this would be great

      Jordan Szejer I'm currently putting together an AWD setup using two Boundmotor direct drive units. Both are double kingpin trucks, and I'm using a Waterborne Surf adapter kit as well. Doubt I'll have any trouble turning, plus I'm going to program the VESCs to have a 40/60 power distribution to help prevent traction issues.

    Nice vid! I've a 10s4p single 6374 with huge torque gearing (15/42), 83mm, 190Kv. 5-20mph it completly smokes a Meepo, obviously. I wanted to build a torque monster. I'm more curious about how you're riding in the wettest conditions Ive ever seen an eBoard in!!? Ive a rubber gasket around the enclosure but I'm still terrified to fry something in the wet. How are you so sealed?!

      How did you like the performance of the one you built? I am might going to make one my self.. Can't decide to go single or double motor, any suggestion?! Its always fun with power ! and lastly how wide is your belt ? are they wearing out quick?

    • @ElmaOrkestra
      @ElmaOrkestra 6 лет назад +2

      Mine goes as fast as I'd ever feel comforatable. 10s4p is plenty. Single motor is about £250 cheaper (Focbox £110, Motor £80, Motor mounts/pulleys etc £50-80 and you'll need double everything). Mine is single and its hardly ever an issue. Belt is 15mm. Aint broken yet. Only £8 anyway. Wheel pulley size and wheel size can massively dictate the torque or top end speed. 36teeth with 100mm wheels will do 30mph but not a huge amount of torque. 42teeth and 83mm wheels on mine leaps off the line and destroys Boosted Board Dual+ and Meepo etc and will climb any hill on the planet. Top end is only 22mph though due to the gearing.

    • @stonebayrocker
      @stonebayrocker 6 лет назад
