Nice build

Can you link where did you get your wheels from?

MBS All-Terrain Longboard Wheels - 100mm X 65mm - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015GJN0BA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_FQOSzb0XBHC4H

Mine actually came with red bearings even though the description says it does not.

How much range your getting out of this bad boy?

The calculations using one of the calculators floating around are: Top Speed: 36.60 mph Weighted Top Speed: 31.11 mph Estimated Range: 11 miles

I haven’t done a full distance test yet but after doing 5.5miles of rolling hills i had 69% left on the meter. Considering that the battery meters aren’t perfect and the board will batt min and turn off at around 15% on the meter so i would say that 10-13miles is probably a good estimate.

Ahh I see thats cool. I was hoping for like 18 miles

I’m not an expert in this area by any means; but if you want this distance, I believe you would just do a 10s4p (instead of 10s3p) and rearrange the batteries a bit and get a slightly thicker enclosure.
