My 2nd Direct Drive similar to Carvon V4 - Gullwing sidewinder truck | 9055 HUB Motor

I think by mentioning Carvon you get real specific in the type of direct drive this is. Direct Drive could mean hub motor also but increasingly more and more people are calling gear drive trains DD which is causing confusion.

I love what you have done here. How did you extend the axles of your gullwing hangers?

Sick man! I was thinking to do kind of the same but attach the hub motor closer to Central of the truck. Could you tell me about the hubs you are using. How do they perform and which set up you have (battery ecc)… Thanks a lot!

Hi, I’m using MP83 HUB motor. Please refer to below link.

My board setting is 10S battery and ebay low price ESC for HUB motor.

I know your Habs I was wondering which top speed and torque feeling you get out of it. I see you are using esc so probably the top speed is limited a bit

I aimed this board setting for low speed and flat riding. I feel the torque is definitely not good because of the large size wheels. Still, there is no problem with flat riding. I have not tried full accelerator yet. if i measure top speed, l will let you know.

Hmmm maybe I could adapt this for normal urethane wheels for a better urethane experience

It is also possible to use a regular long board wheel. Instead, you should open the hub motor as much as possible to cool it.

Yes I will, would you be able to measure the diameter of the hub motor with the urethane removed? Please

Hi! I am working on a new project that will require similar axle enxtender. I was wodnering if you can tell me which material you used and whihc machine. I thought to make them with a lathe but I am afraid of possible vibration on the metal bar. Did you use a CNC? Thx :grin:

Hi!,

My friend made it. It was made using a lathe tool. The material is SUS 304. :slight_smile:

Perfect thanks. Is it correct 5/16 24" for the axle thread? That what I found only but just to be sure…

I do not know the dimensions, but I have been asked to make a specification such as a long board truck axle thread.
