Wow, how amazing to build your own electric plane and fly it. What an achievement!

Your video doesn't seem to work.
You should also see Farfles electric Ultralight plane build:
viewtopic.php?f=38&t=89043&start=175
I will be following your build as well. Good luck, enjoy and keep us posted.

Are the black plastic dividers bonded together and difficult to separate? Or are only the tabs welded together to make the electrical connections?

You removed more material then there is left over...
It seems you have the tools and skills to have made the entire sprocket yourself including the teeth. Why didn't you?

Dont take this the wrong way, but aesthetics are not this forums strong point huh?

We would love to see your build(s) with better aesthetics...

Reading all your posts you seem to know what you're doing

However i just found a german vendor via german craigslist and they do an early bird/preorder offer for 3900€ for the street legal version. Its a bikeshop. But theyre stating that the bikes will stock up or arrive in feb/march. Will write them an see. Also a second bikeshop which offers for 4200€.....

Not yet in need of a new controller but I'm interested in the Nucular controllers so I'll be following this thread.

Great result!
Enjoy all future flights and always land safely

it's a piece of water pipe which is almost the exact size needed to fit the cups. the machinist only had to remove a small amount. it has a seam i hope it doesn't split :lol: Make sure the seam is facing to the rear so it will be closed in by the frame tubes that will be welded to it. And join thos...

Maybe place a kart seat on the deck and use the balance of your arms and upper body to lean the board. That should give an interesting drive/ride so low down. Make it easily detachable to switch between stand up board and low ground, off road "balance karting". 8) (just thinking outside the box... :...

Or use a Nissan Leaf drive train in the rear. Paul and Arlo are building and selling components to control the electric motor. Arlo already reached >300HP in his Honda CRX: https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=63982 aLCc7bSLNjs Paul is here: https://endless-sphere.com/forums/viewto...

This is a great DIY mid drive idea!
I might use it on my bike next year. Thanks for sharing and keep enjoying your bike!

Thus, would this mean I should torque the bolts until I don't hear a 'clank' sound when lifting the bike? Loosen the bolt a little, sit on the bike to put pressure on the shock, get off but don't lift the bike, now tighten the bolt until it is really clamping. Normally a M8 bolt can be tightened to...

Normally speed is a function of voltage. If a bike rides 24 km/h at 24V it wil do 36km/h at 36V provided that enough amps can be delivered. So it could be that the controller doesn't provide enough amps. But you write that you already increased the current limit. Can you measure the speed of the whe...

See below

Cool ride
Have you tried putting the motor inside of the frame? If that fits it's more protected.

Bike porn!

When correcting the saddle, I remembered these words.

A bolt hole is what is sounds like: a hole to put a bolt through. It should be the clamp force of that bolt that pulls two or more surfaces (crush tube between mounting flanges) so tight together that the shear force is on those surfaces and not on the bolt! So if you can see the bolt moving when on...

I am currently dealing with out of tolerance upper shock mount holes. There are suppose to be 8mm, but mine is 8.2mm and that is measuring with powder coating still in the holes. So now I have a 'clank' sound every time I pick up the bike or bounce over something on the road.I can see the bolt movi...

Cool and "different" project. Keep building and updating!

That seems to be a nice location for the "key" to slide into when there is an emergency stop... (ouch)
Great progress!

How social of you letting other people "enjoy" your music too...

It might just be a hidden menu option on the display to allow for a higher maximum RPM. Or there is a 3-speed function and it is default in the middle. Are there any connectors not used?

Promising developments. I'll subscribe to follow this thread. Carry on making great controllers

You must have a different idea of "comfortable" than I do...
But great to do such a tough event and succeed!
