I used Evolve GT Trucks and The AT conversion kit and built up from there.
The Build
12S 10000mah Lipo (I had them laying around)
Dual Drive 6355 170kv Maytech Motors
Bluetooth Dongle
Dual Maytech Vesc
Printed Battery and ESC Box
CNC CF Motor mounts 6mm
CNC CF Covers
2.4 Mini Remote
I’m looking at doing exactly the same type of board essentially for commuting on roads and paths, so i have a few questions:
I assume you have 4 x 6S Lipos?
What sort of performances do you get in this configuration (speed, range, torque)?
Is your deck completely flat?
Yeah the battery enclosures are 3d printed with some carbon fiber covers. It took a LONG time to print them but I’m happy with how they came out.
The tires are from the Gt Conversion Kit I went with this because it came with the wheel, tyre, bearings, gear and belt. So it was perfect for what I wanted.
I’m running Dual 6s 10000mah in series. I have only just finished the build and ripped around my complex so I have yet to establish the numbers I will post them as soon as the snow / ice in my area clears up.
The deck has a solid curve to it so I had to take that into consideration when printing the enclosures.
@Sarky1 great idea to use their wheel kit as a starting point! I just realized that their rear truck already has a welded bracket on it for the motor mount, so making the CF piece made a lot of sense, nice work!
The deck is maple and fiberglass, quite ridgid but some flex. I printed the enclosures out of a semiflexible material for flex and sound. They won’t break I’m sure of that. There is a chance that they will start to detach from the deck but time will tell there.
Isn’t it nice having a CNC?! I don’t know what I did before making mine. So many more possibilities open up so fast once you have one. Love your mounts!
