I already have a diy single belt drive board of my own, but I’m looking for a backup to keep in the trunk of my car. I know this obviously won’t be as good as a true DIY board, but I’m not really looking for high speeds, just a slow cruiser to get around campus and downtown for photography.
Well that’s the way I went with my first board, but yeah I’m just looking for something I can plug-n-play into another deck.
My first is a GREAT board, but after all the research and soldering and waiting for parts, the thought of going through all of it again is exhausting haha. The biggest draw of this kit is that all the electronics are preassembled and I can start building right away
Also one question I had, if the motor part of all the wheels are the same size, does that mean that a smaller wheel would have a lower top speed with a rougher ride, but have better torque?
I used to think the biggest hub motor you could get was the best, but if it’s not the actual motor itself that’s bigger…
Yep, exactly…if you have the same motor core and different urethane diameter around it…
For example:
6050 75kv Hub Motor inside a 80mm wheel would give you around 37kph with 10s battery…
6050 75kv Hub motor inside a 97mm wheel would give you around 45kph with 10s battery…and also smoother ride with thicker urethane…
