Hi guys ! I’m Tony. I’ve been doing part time job in 7-11 for 3 month to get my budget (600$) .(I’m from China )
I’m going to build a board just like boosted
Here are the parts i purchased :
Vanguard deck+Paris v2 truck = $157 (used)
Orangtang Kegel 80a =$80 (They are super expensive in China )
3.Boosted Style customized dual 6355 motor @190kv with sensor=45$ each (included shipping)
4. Dual Maytech vesc=
$70 each (bought it in 11.11 shopping festival deal super cheap!
)
5. Xiaomi Power bank aluminum shield which can fit 8x18650 cells and cheap ($5 for 3 piece include shipping)
Total cost=$472
So I have $137 left for
12s2p Sony VTC6(80$)
Pulley wheels for kegel (3d print)
228 HTD 3M belt(5$)
3D print boosted style remote
Im gonna design my own motor mount that looks like the boosted ones.I’ll share the files after I finish it .

Thanks ! i’m gonna design and 3dprint holders to hold these powerbank shield underneath the board
wont be much of a boosted board without the boosted style enclosures
I agree with @GrecoMan … Check out @Eboosted enclosures thread for some really nice looking ones

Totally true gonna give up on the aluminum shield, i found this on taobao.com .
costs about 95rmb(14$), look ok but not very cool though.

to the untrained eye that would definitely look like a boosted board! you could also definitely 3d print them and add some fiber tape on the inside for reinforcement

I’ve never get my hands on a real boosted board not sure if i can make one thats better than the 14$ one, i do have a 3d printer though, the problem is 3D modeling, seems hard to draw the boosted shape, is there any existing stl files ?
these ones were made by @jackw
heres his boosted clone build thread:
Specs: Deck: Loaded Vanguard - Flex 3 Trucks: Caliber II 50s Wheels: Orangatang Kegel Enclosures: My own design, beautifully made reality by @Eboosted Battery: 3x 4s Lipos (Possibly an 18650 pack in the future) VESC: 2x Phoenix VESC (vesc.co.uk)...

the vesc enclosure looks legit! when it comes to the battery enclosure,i think the 14$one looks better. what do u think?
that $14 one looks like it is super tall
