If you want a cheap 6364 Hobbyking sells a 190kv Keda motor for about $45. I’m running it and it’s going great so far
Yeh, thanks for reminding, might as well ordered i, if i knew sooner. Maybe some sort of motor buy guide wouldnt be bad
Yeah with a list of all known and tested motors
That is a great idea there should be a thread will all the tested motors, vesc and batteries and how the performance was.
and on top of it,… i would like it to have been hosted on a seperate website, otherwise a lot of good stuff gets buried in the forum…
Well someone would have to host that but if we did a list on here but it could be stickied
has shop list as of now:
would be interesting, if @tueboard would be willing to extend this further and include specific part sources / reviews
You should easily get 2 of the smaller motors on a regular caliber. I had thought of testing the same thing myself.
[quote=“Dornacht, post:117, topic:15433”] they aren’t that bad of motors very good on foc, I am running a single [/quote]Are you running the 140kv or 200kv 5065? And at what voltage? Thanks
I was running the 200kv motors on 10s foc. They were great. (now had the board bought from me but the new owner loves it too)
Awesome, what brand VESC were you running?
They were the older enertion 4.12 vescs. Been rock solid.
I think for my first build I’m gonna go with the 5065 200kv in dual diagonal. I hope everything goes well
Can’t go wrong for $80 shipped. There’s a lot of speculation that these (well the 140kv version) are the same motors used by Evolve.
yep, read that too
200kv with Ollin vesc 12s
Do you think the 140kv or 200 kv would be strong enough for a single motor built. I’m about 175 lb or about 80kg. There are not many hills around me but a feel but nothing terribly big.
I’m a bit heavier, 5065 on 10s (14t/36t) got a bit too hot with spirited riding. I think it’d be okay if you kept it under maybe 22mph. fwiw the motor ran nice.
I ordered 2 of the 5045 motors for dual drive on Caliber trucks and they arrived today. Does anyone know if these motors fit on diyelectricskateboard’s motor mounts?

I’m not really sure 100% be if you choose mount for 50mm they should
