My friend had to pay 20$ so I guess you had bad luck
Did you write anything special on the declaration?
Nice build, I bought the same dual belt kit from DIYeboard and is working fantastic. I currently have modified the rear truck so I could use 38T wheel pulley with orangatang kegel wheels. When I received the package, one of the diode from the DIYeboardās ESC (top PCB) was fallen off, Iāve re-soldered that diode back and re-soldered most of diodes and hardwares with thicker lead, and then battery indicator was working like a charm. Have you tried if there was any missing diode or component from your top PCB area?
I didnāt pay anything to have it imported, I live in Denmark.
Weird that @Lumaci had to pay import taxes.
My indicator donāt work on the remote or the esc case. Shows full battery all the time on both remote and esc. If you have any tips for a solution this problem Iām all ears
When you have to remove the motor pulleys how hot did it have to be? Will a heat gun be hot enough? Looking to change mine to 12/36
I only used a heatgun on mine
Good to know. Iām changing the mounts soon but I bought a pulley puller just in case.
After heating it did youb just pull it off. Iām trying to take the pulley off my Liftboard I think theyāre from the same supplier.
Yeah , but you need alot of heat.
I know this is an old thread but where are you finding other sources for this lipped bearing here in the states I donāt want to pay $20 shipping off their site is ridiculous. Thanks
have u checked grainger or mcmastercarr?
nice thread! wanna hear some updates! i think many ppl are looking at theese kits from diyeboards due to the price, i mean they compete with products (evolve boards) that are 3 times more expensive
I found them on Ambec, online bearing store. The only place that I could see they were listed as high speed and sold to RC hobbies and what not where the others I couldnāt tell what quality they were you know if they would work thereās a million of them out there but I think these are the exact ones I hope. Thanks for your pointer
Iām new at this and the expensive boards will have to do something exceptional to WOW me after being on this cheap board. If they are 5 pounds lighter, can go 5 miles more ECT. I just donāt see spending another $1000 to upgrade. I weight 246 and this board calls me Flaco every hill we climb!
I have this kit and my take on this:
- Speed is good, approx 40kph
- Torque is pretty low compared to my other boards, slows down into wind and uphill quite a lot
- Belts get loose really fast and canāt be adjusted, buy heaps of belts and you might have to change them regularly, possibly depending on riding style and weight (Iām 105kg). Mine are two weeks old and slipping heaps.
- For the price these are quite good but I bought mine from MBoards which was an expensive mistake, should have bought from DIYeboard and saved $200, I also got no enclosure, late delivery and delivered with flat battery in controller so it seemed to work but wouldnāt turn the wheels until controller charged and got no support from Mboards - Bjerk helped me out with this fix - thanks mate!
Great information! Can you please tell me if the 36T 12MM KEGEL DRIVE WHEEL PULLEY from Torque Boards will work with the dual belt drive from Diyeboard? I have orangatang kegels that I want to use but Jason from diyeboard said itās not possible.
