I might make a light cruiser for school until the E-Elpis II project is finished (months away still) IF I can get parts. I’m hoping to make it under 12lbs (its 6lbs as a push board) with a top speed of 15mph and range of 5mi on flat ground. I still need…
- 6s battery (I will literally take a box of half dead loose li-ion or lipo cells)
- motor (150 to 200 watts at 22 volts and 100 to 200 kv, but anything will do)
- mount for 60mm wheel (I will glue a motor pulley to a PU wheel if the kv is close enough)
- remote (I don’t care if its a servo tester on a really long wire)
- griptape (scraps and cuttoffs if they still stick and have texture)
I will accept ‘broken’ parts if they are fixable for cheap
Only continental US because shipping…I’m hoping to get it running for like $50 total, my bank is empty from buying nice stuff for the longboard
Will pay only if I can get enough offer for parts to justify the build
