I am new to this website and I started building my board way before I was introduce to this site. Currently, my board is half way done., however, I don’t mind switching parts if the change is justified. My goal was to make an e-board that could go around 15 mph max weighted with 5 miles of range minimum. This is my following setup.
I think the standard is 6s or higher for voltage for a reason, anything lower than that is going to be pretty inefficient. Maybe get another battery and put two in series to make it 8s?
I really don’t recommend a beginner to build a gt2b mod controller. Just get a simple turn key remote and then down the line if OP has resources/time/the desire, then start getting better components.
@jjalibwa If you want cheap and don’t plan on running FOC, then go with any VESC 4.x
Also there’s this option if you’re looking for a cheap decent ESC. You’d have to up it to 6s (these go 6/8/10s, you have to specify when you order), but they’re decent quality (meepo and many other boards use them) and it comes with the remote. Plus it’s cheap.
