UPDATED FULL PARTS LIST: geni.us/bV1e
Can you give a pic or a vid of your vesc configuration pleaseee
Mike Beard If i bought all the parts (excluding deck) how much would that run me and what would be a cheap set up?
+SomeRandomUsername this set up would run you about $550 Maybe less with cheaper trucks, wheels, and vesc.
A cheap set up is $300-$400
A set up that's a great value would be $500-$600
I would spend $500-$600. It makes a huge difference in quality.
please do an update on doing a wall plug in charger inside it
+VickerS Releasing a full build series very soon
honestly im a big skater the one thing i cant stand is when youtubers talk about skate board stuff and have no idea what they are talking about but you, you took the time to know some what of the stuff you were talking about and when you didn't you said that you didn't know. just saying it was nice to hear
it also seams like you really try in your vids to make them good... you got my like and sub
+Joseph Chasse Hey thanks man!
Great job Mike! I'm a long time aircraft mechanic. Being in that industry I appreciate detail, quality work, and quality instructions. You've delivered all three here. I love seeing younger people exploring and mastering mechanical projects....Kudos sir.
Thank you very much! Thanks for watching!
Can you please do a step by step in detail tutourial!!!!!!!!!!
will you pay him
Dude I'm 14 and built one myself it's not that hard plus there's tons of other step by step tutorials out there go check out great Scott's tutorial it's really in depth
Can you link me the channel?
I'm on my phone so I can't but just look up great scott electric skateboard there's 3 videos really helpful no way I would've even considered it without watching those they make it much simpler
Tanks a lot!!
Have a nice day!
It's awesome on how you break things down and make it easier to understand, especially for dumbfound people like me. You also make it easy to see how much everything costs and the links to each part in the description, little things like that to make someone's life easier just makes you that much better than other youtubers. Awesome stuff man. Getting my sub 👍.
+Chance Bichao Thanks for watching! I'm glad I could help!
You got this out quick! Great job my friend :) LOL, the first time I soldered was pretty scary too; had to watch a ton of videos! You got one of the most solid VESCs in the industry! Also, the trucks are actually mandatory for most types of motor mounts because of the flat spot. Regardless, not many people are doing quality esk8 videos so mad props!
- Neil
Big Kids Thanks Neil 😎😎
Of course, great stuff! And congrats on the success of the last video. I'm not sure you got my email but I sent you one yesterday 😁
subscribed at the end of the video . noticed there is a part 2 and after a few seconds he says : if you are a new subscriber hi! 10/10 will replay that
+Vlaszacs Eduard Leo Welcome to the Beard fam 😎
please do step by step tutorial!!!!!!
I said this earlier too go check out great Scott's step by step tutorial it's really in depth and should get u going and there's tons of others too
I love tutorials that tell you to go look something up.
+Drawn Sideways 😂😂😂 me
can you please make a whole video of you making the board from scratch with al new parts that would really help some of us who want to build this board like if you agree so he sees this
+aditya gupta I explain in my newest electric skateboard video that I am making 5 new tutorials.
@Mike Beard Im from the race quad or freestyle quad community and charging lipo batteries is almost a daily event. Get yourself a parallel charging board and you can charge up all your batteries at once.
Have an idea for another video? Reply to this comment! Have a question? Drop it below!
i would like to see a video when you are riding the board. so a video where you show how fast it goes etc.
Watch part 1: ruclips.net/video/fUdxf_54wIg/видео.html
Mike Beard i have already seen part 1. but you did a few shots but not really much. but it is just an idea if you don't like it, no problem. just make a video of it if you want.
Roy oh okay sounds good man 😎😊
I was thinking about building an electric longboard with flexible drive shafts? what do u think. Good idea or not?
i'll never build this, BUT that was such a professional high quality video and very enjoyable to watch! considering the amount of subscribers i don't get how you pulled this off that perfectly. all the best on your youtube journey. cheers
+Jim Alpin Im a fulltime photographer and videographer so not a hard video to make at all. Unfortunately good content and subscriber count don't always correlate. Thanks for watching!
No bs whatsover, you made someone's day.. gj
yo balance charge your batteries, look at the rotor riot video on balance charging lipo batteries. you plug al 3 into the charger at the same time, makes life a whole lot easier!
just letting everyone know, enertion will soon stop selling diy parts, diy electric skateboard seems to have most of these parts
Better get the parts while you still can!
Mike Beard yep! the 12 mm belt isnt available from enertion anymore, but you can get from diy electric skateboard
I believe they're liquidating everything except the Nano-X controler and the VESC. But, those 2 are pretty solid.
thanks for this information
A step by step tutorial would be awesome!
Make a new video where you start from scratch so we can follow what you do.
So remove everything from the board, press record and start building the electric long board plz
Please make a more detailed video of what is under the tupperware thing and how it works.
Maybe you can make a circuit diagram for those who can understand that. That will make it a lot easier to understand the electronics (for me). But other than that a great video! You really spent a lot of time on this video, you can see the hard work. A really good video!!
+arne janssens Hey thanks man! In the future I will break out the white board and draw it out 😎
you're cool man i wish you all the best with RUclips and college
+Amputatoe Thanks man!
Can you ride the it like a regular skateboard when it is out of battery?
+Tristan Cooper Yes, there is a little resistance because of the belt but yes you can totally push 👍🏻
Tristan Cooper if u want a board u can push freely get a hub motor instead of a satellite setup there is 0 resistance
Does this system have re-gen breaking?
How do you tune this?
How do you know how much juice you have when you are outside?
A little tip though. You can buy an RC parallel charging board on amazon so you don't have to swap batteries during the charging. Also, I suggest putting a battery tempture sensor on the batteries both when charging and ridding. It's very easy to close to the dangerous tempture when charging that fast, especially when the batteries have built up some internal resistance.
Great video. I really want to ride an electric skateboard but I need to save for a while. XP
Have a nice day Mike.
+Felix L Yes it has regenerative charging, there is a battery percentage indicator that shows what percent battery is remaining, and you tune the regen by programming the vesc
Fantastic tutorial
+Cameron S Thanks for watching 😎
How much did all the parts cost?
+Bess_E about $600
Mike Beard Thanks!
Wow! A 9s1p lipo, and that gauge wire for the XT60. I'm not an electrical engineer but I fly quads that use these types of batteries and with 4s1p lipos we use wire that thick, or maybe even thicker. Also, if a 9s1p battery really needed?
+Max Harrison 14 gauge wire is only rated for 20amps. I've been pulling a lot more through it. In its early stages I tested and checked all the wiring frequently. Everything only got warm to the touch so it should all be fine. But of course I would recommend larger gauge wires for more permanent builds.
How much did it all cost
+Sean Kuphner About $600
Mike Beard usd ?
+Jackson Banks Yup ☺️🇺🇸
Mike Beard oh ok :(((
600 is pretty high for a diy ,was expecting below 250 -300
Great video man! Like your content!
I haven't watched part 3 yet but if you're still looking for a better charging situation you can buy a parallel charging board. There are some safety precautions you have to take but it does work, that's what I do to charge all my drone batteries
Here's a real n00b Q: Did you have to use 3 batteries due to the requirements of the motor? Could you have have used just 2?
Great vid bro, thanks
Hi mate great job. I'm going to make mine with a 20v dewault drill motor and battery. What is the name of the component for the transmiter switch?
Question: I don't really like the idea of one wheel drive- is there an easy way to fit two motors with the VESC, or is there no notice of the one wheel drive?
+Spencer Young You can have 2 motors of you want but it requires two vecs. I don't feel it at all. You can't tell that there is only one wheel drive at all.
Have you ever had any problems with the flaps on the battery housing container that you used popping open while riding?
+Mile High Island I've never had any issues. I actually accidentally broke the tabs a little bit doing something else and they still hold really well 👍🏻
Awesome Video Mike I will build a Electric Long board Very Soon Thanks Dude
Glad I could help 😎
WAY COOL MY BRO FANTASTIC
+jerome coetzee Thanks man 😎
Awesome videos, thanks man!
+Lawrence Ngo Thanks for watching!
Dude this is pretty badass thanks for sharing. I'm gonna look into making my own now because of this? Sorry if someone already asked this but how does it do with water? Also curbs though?
+Jacob Jenkins It handles puddles just fine. The more water tight your enclosure is the better it will handle water. And I wouldn't ride off a curb on any longboard 😬
what battery indicator did you use? also how do you set it up in a series to 2 3s lipos?
Can these type of boards be used as a normal board?
Nice video man I'm about to make one myself I'll show you a picture when it's done
at the same time we are using 2750Kv motors on our Race quad's
I am thinking of building one but I don't know about the motor because I want something that can go up hills and go fast, but I have $200 budget
awesome video!
+Micah Koelmeyer Thanks!
Will 2 270kv motors do well in hills?
Would be possible to fit two motors and motors mounts in the same side of the trucks? Thanks
+DREDUTORO I don’t want to say its impossible because someone out there could probably figure it out. But with the tools and parts that I’m using it wouldn’t really work because the belts have to be running to the wheels on either side of the board.
Hey Mike, do I HAVE to use a vesc with those batteries? or can i buy a regular esc with those batteries, or does a regular esc only work with 10s2p batteries? I know nothing, please help.
How did you mount the box that holds the vesc, batteries and receiver
How did you connect the battery indicator to the batterys?
can you tell us how much it costed you, You actually inspired me to make one
+Lij Emmu Hey thanks man! It costs around $600
i've made an electric skateboard that uses a 6s battery but i am going to upgrade to a 9s battery. I was wondering what VESC setting you used gor your 9s battery board?
could you give in the link of the charger because cant find right one with adapters
Could you do a video on the mboard battery management/charger system? Or post me a link, cheers mike
+Big Dogg New Videos coming soon 😎
Sweet! I built a board from scratch after seeing your vids, mostly from torque parts🤙🏽
One last thing, how steep of a hill can it go up, there are quite a bit of hills in my neighborhood and I want to know if it will be able to go up and down them
Would you suggest getting a motor with slightly more torque because I’m not to worried about the top speed as long as it can go up and down hills
+Astro I live in a hilly neighborhood too. I’ve never met a hill that I couldn’t climb. But yeah if you want more hill climbing power, maybe go for a 6375 vs a 6355
What screws did you use? how did you install them? I just purchased the same deck for my eboard
+Grayson G I just have some good old fashion wood screws screwed directly into the bottom of the deck through the lid of the enclosure.
Is there any sort of protection for the lipid on this board
+Cabes dailyvlogs The batteries just sit inside and are balance charged.
Did you need a bind key for the remote?
+Nathan A. It came with the remote but it came already binded. I didn't even need to use it.
me and my dad want to build one, I really like your design and will be basing most of my design off of yours, the one question I have though is about the soldering part. What exactly did you have to solder and where to? Soldering is no problem for me I am just curious about where you soldered the bullet connectors on to?
Other than that great video man!
+George Keplo the female bullet connectors are soldered to the 3 wires that lead out of the vesc that are supposed to connect to the motor
+George Keplo thanks man!
Thank You for the quick response! very helpful!
Another question, how do you turn the board on/off? Spark key? or do you have a power button system?
Can you do a video on how to program a vesc, and how to sauder bullet connectors onto a vesc. Also I dont know which bullet connectors from the vesc I shoud put into my motor. Thanks for the help.
Hey Mike i'm currently copying most of the parts you used. From your parts list the the DIY Electric Skateboard's ESC VESC is built with a TX90. Is there a way to go from TX90 to a 4mm?
Please could u help me how the wheels will change the direction.As they are fixed and can move only in one direction
+the fantastic Boyz you turn by leaning
How does the break work ?
Is the percentage/voltage display connected straight to the output voltage? (same pins)?
When you buy the trucks, do you get 2 or 1?
+Richard Boo 2
The motor mount that u listed isn't available...what's an alternative? As well as the bullet connector pieces ...
+Grant Meyer diyelectricskateboards has them too 👍🏻
Is it 1wd or 2wd?
Does it have some kind of brake? Like engine braking or similar? Is there any kind of emergency power cutoff if it suddenly wanna run away?
This is 1wd. The boards we make now are 2wd or 4wd.
There is regenerative braking.
im very confused on what parts i need and dont need. i have a complete longboard already but im just unsure of what i need to buy like. a motor, lipo batteries, random cables, receiver.... etc. anychance you could send me the general parts list?
+Luke MacIntosh I have a link to an entire Parts list in the description
Hi! I love this vid, it's super helpful (probably the best tutorial I've seen so far :P). I was just wondering what the name of your deck is? I can't find it when I click the link....
+Phoebe Nadorp it's a 40 inch bamboo kick tail Long Board deck
Is there a cheap alternative to a vesc? It costs like 100$ and rc esc's only cost like 10$
+Axel Lundberg $100 is about as cheap as they get, the cheap escs will burn out Because they can't handle the amount of power coming through it
Hey I'm wondering how you programmed the esc, did you plug it into a computer??
+Truman Talbot Yes. Although mine came ready to go.
Do I need 2 series connectors or just one
+Cabes dailyvlogs If you are using 2 batteries just 1. If you are using 3 batteries you need 2.
What is the size of the belts? and where can one find it online
+felipe lopez 265mm. Diy electric carries them
The motor mount is not available on Amazon anymore is there an alternative that could be used in place of the one you suggested?
+Grayson Keaton Its available on diyelectricsktateboard.com too
Thanks for the quick response! I am thinking of using two larger batteries instead of three smaller ones do you think that these could work well?

Any idea what KV rating one should shoot for if building a board designed to handle pretty steep, San Francisco-ish hills?
+James Haddow my 190kv motor destroys hills 😎
Mike Beard what's the steepest hill you've gone up?
+James Haddow pretty damn steep 😎
Thorough video man, definitely building one. Just spent all my money building a quadcopter, unfortunately.
How much does it cost
do I have to code anything in this
what about hill declines and braking?
+Asyraf Suhaimi climbs hills like a champ. And has regenerative braking
How much did it cost sorry if you answered it already but I'm kinda in a hurry right now
+Pine Opplus about $600
Can I just buy a board and what board should I buy to fit the motor and everything else
can u use what sites u found the information to make a boosted board
+Teagan trice all of the links in the description
how did you get that battery indicator to work? did you solder it to the insides of the bullet connectors?
+Raymond Chen Yes 👍🏻
do you think you can make a video or point me to a video on how you do this? I'm have difficulties removing the bullet connector plastic piece. not sure how you're able to strip the wire and such
+Raymond Chen You can just cut a slit in the positive and negative wires and then solder to that if it is easier.
Mike Beard alrighty, also after you connect all the individual battery so it acts as one huge battery why can't you just plug it in as a huge battery to charge?
+Raymond Chen The charger doesn't have enough balance cables and doesn't have a enough voltage output
Love it
Do u have a brake system? Was it at all a problem if you dont?
+Derek Chen Yes there is a braking system. It's built in to the motor.
awesome thanks! I clicked on the trucks link and it said that the page wasn't found. Doesn't look like enertion sells their trucks individually anymore?
is it okay if I just use Caliber II trucks?
+Derek Chen Yes caliber trucks work better actually
awesome
How much did it cost in total?
+jonathan davis about $600
Kv means how many rpm per volt, slower or a larger diameter (e.g. 2206 2300kv is 22mm diameter 6mm stata and 2300Rpm per volt)
+Amateur Tech Right, just keeping it simple for everyone.
Mike Beard I understand I was just explaining it in case some people were curious. Anyway nice work I am planning to build one myself
+Amateur Tech 😎😎👍🏻
You know, if you cut a small hole in the bottom of the box thing you can put the thing that lights up there and make it like a neon light that would be under a car but under your board
Yo Mike! Im thinking about building an electric longboard like you! You mentioned that there were some things that you would change? What would those things be and how would they be accomplished? Thanks in advance!
Can you do a complete walk through? Like take your board apart, or build another? Thanks man, I just subbed. Love your vids so far!
I wan't to build one of these thats sort of a hybrid to a skateboard. I used to longboard to get around and the bad part about it was (coming from a skateboarding background) it was hard to get through trivial areas like up curbs. I wan't to make a deck thats shaped like a skate board but a little larger with longboard wheels and trucks.
what was the total cost of the board
+Wil Sullivan about $600
how would you turn it on?
I think i just found my summer project
+Asian DUDE Hell yeah dude good luck with it!
Can anyone here explain how you would rig a BMS to this setup? would be handy to be able to charge it with a single plug
Hey Mike I got a quick Q! I am debating whether to get a 190kv or 213kv turnigy motor for my board. Considering all other factors are the same (wheel size, gear reduction ratio, cell count) which motor would you prefer and why? I am aware of the inverse relationship of torque and top speed. Say I did go with the lower speed 190kv motor, would there be a considerable increase in torque and decrease in speed or would that not be noticeable at all? (maybe even through in a 245kv motor for comparisons sake) Just bouncing some thoughts of you haha
any chance doing a dual motor video? or do you know any links of how to wire the motors, vesc and batteries?
Questions can the more go threw water and still be ok
I mean the motor
+Dallin Reed Ive ridden it through puddles before and it was okay. Not sure how it would react in the rain though
Yep this is kind of what I thought it looked like. Luckily I am big into hobby grade RC cars. So my traxxas rustler vxl system is what I have. I already understand the electronics for that and this is basically the same thing but a little more complicated. My background definitely helps me understand this. So all you people out there that thinks this is complicated, it really isn't.
You gave a really personable nature and a good fluidic friendly presentation style, but it's supposed to be a Build Tutorial and if I was trying to make one of those boards I still wouldnt know how after watching this. The occasional snapshot insert of a component is lost in the chitchat. Hopefully this isn't taken as too critical, I don't mean it to be, but I would have liked to SEE the parts progressively assembled and didn't feel I got that. Keep making videos though, and Im sure tons of folk will become fans.
