I'm really not sure, I don't know a ton about building these things yet which is why I bought the Benchwheel - I just know it will shut down pretty quickly after I ride it for a few minutes. The biggest pain is that the components are in a metal tube underneath the board and they are very snug...
Hello, I have a Benchwheel dual motor that constantly fails due to heat, so I'm hoping to build my own board using some of the components. Here are the components I hope I can re-use:
- Motors
- Battery pack
- Remote
What else is necessary to make the board functional? ESCs I know, anything...
The good news: The amp seems to have fixed my issue. On about a 10 minute ride earlier it didn't cut off once.
The bad news: I somehow severed the wire that leads to the transmitter. I tried to attach another wire, but I obviously used the wrong type/wrong gauge of wire and it doesn't seem to...
I will try this, any idea what type of fuse it is? I'd like to pick it up while I'm at work but I don't believe it's a regular auto fuse, it seems a bit bigger.
I'm open to building my own, I like the style of the motor enclosures so as long as I can re-use those I'm fine. What else could potentially be re-used? Also, is anyone aware of any DIY "clean" enclosures like the Benchwheel one? I would prefer a DIY board but the pre-made ones look so much...
So I tested the whole pack and it was a steady 24.9 V. I put it under load and it held steady at 24.5 Doesn't seem to be any sagging at all.
I can't find a way to test the batteries individually, any advice? They are all held/glued together.
I've had a Benchwheel for about a month now, and suddenly it will only run for about 30 seconds before it cuts off and the power light begins to blink. I emailed the dealer and was told the batteries have gone bad, but to me it almost seems like the ESC is overheating. It will work for a short...
