Got myself 4 hoverboard wheels and 24s 10ah of lipo lying around at first I wanted to make a mountain board but then I though why not make a mobility scooter go a bit faster, so I ordered 4 wheels I'm in talks for 4, 12 fet 500w 48v 30a controllers.
My plan is to make it 4wd all controllers lead to one throttle, still have the Hare and a tourtouise speed adjustment but I'll swap it out to a four way rotary switch so I have 3 speeds and reverse and for front and rear brake ill use the brake high signal from the front to controllers separated aswell as rear worked by bmx levers on the bar and a twist throttle to go.
The lights will be upgraded all to led, front will have a dip and 30w ×2 high beam the rear will have a brake high and illumination.
Top speeds etc, I'm hoping for around 25mph with the setup and enough grunt to climb any tarmac surface, you know me all my build are cheap arse and light as I can get them I may add a 5v USB to this one for charging phones etc while I out galavanting or doing 25mph in the local ikea.
