    Building 4wd

    From my setup the way my wiring was /is I had 2 twin motors, each on their own ESC and each of those ran off a separate battery. So my system was 2 motors, 2 ESC, ran to one receiver on the same channel. I used a Y-type connection to run both ESC into one channel, but I don't know how to run 4...

    Building 4wd

    Hello, it's been a very long time since I've done the research on here. I have previously built a 2wd e-mountain board back in 2014. Since then I've wanted to do more. I understand the concept of wiring 2 motors/2 escs into one receiver to be controlled together. My question now is how can I...

    So I bought a lathe...and made Hub Motors

    So quick question. I messaged you on facebook, so sorry I havent gotten around to purchasing these yet but I will in the near future. I have 2 hobbywing 250 amp ESC's. I will probably get some 6s or 8s batteries. My question is can I wire up my longboard for all 4 hubs to be motorized? If so...

    Cell Port Low Volt

    Not sure what you mean? I have replaced the Board and the Charging cables from the charger and it continues to say Voltage Low on the port. I dont know if its the batteries or not. It only happened after I havent been using them for awhile when I know they just worked and the cells are not...

    Cell Port Low Volt

    Well I am having trouble charging my Zippy 6s 22.2v Lipo Batteries on my iCharger. For some reason a message pops up saying "Cell port low Volt" or something like that. I was able to charge my batteries a few months ago but I havent since then and now they wont work. I have checked the cells...

    DUAL E-MTB BUILD

    Glad to see you're riding. Sucks that your ESC is acting up. In my opinion the Hobbywing ones are the best choice. You get what you pay for honestly, and places like ebay have them for a little cheaper. I got both of my HW 150 amp ones from there.

    Forever running magnet motor?

    Well technically it wouldn't be endless, as well as it needs a physical force to get it started. The theory behind this machine is that the magnets are capable of spinning the shaft without outside energy. Technically, yes something like this is possible where you only have to start it once...

    DIY Hoverboard

    Have you seen the new hover boards or hover bikes? Someone built a drone that was capable of lifting someone who is about 150 pounds, ( I cant find the video) but it is impractical, as well as those propeller thrusters. Heres a link to the hover bike. This shows how much thrust it would take...

    Motor suspension?

    Dang, well the ATS are hard to design around because of where the break bolt hole is placed. Are there any other trucks that I can use that would have a bolt hole through the center?

    Motor suspension?

    I didnt even look at that, damn, well I have already had a new motor after the incident but I guess I can order the shaft and have a motor for some other projects. Is there a way to replace the whole casing? Another motor I have the shaft broke through at the back so I cannot fix that with just...

    Motor suspension?

    I do, but actually the lathe we have at school is really big and i dont think I could make it, havent used it before

    Motor suspension?

    ah okay, Ill have to look into it. I think i can get some delrin for free though which in that case I will go that option.
  19. T

    Motor suspension?

    Agreed. I mean its all worth a shot, but I feel delrin will give the strength and flex that it needs at 1/2 thick.

    Motor suspension?

    The mounts I have designed still need some tweeks and certain things cant be milled on them such as the nut chambers that I have included. So once I have some time to design more I will do that, but even after these 3d prints Delrin is still a cheaper alternative unless I plan on making cast...

    Motor suspension?

    Planning on it, I think My first step is to redesign because I dont like the ATS mounts I am thinking I will get the vector ones to be safe and I was actually thinking of getting them milled in Delrin. If those dont work then I will go to aluminium.

    Motor suspension?

    Already on it. I replaced that motor and havent had any problems since though my mounts have not stood up to my riding... even though I am only riding streets.

    Motor suspension?

    Right? It may have just been a problem with an alignment issue but after that I havent had any issues. Well, besides the fact that I have figured that my mounts are not strong enough as both of them flexed too much and the bolt holes snapped so I need to design those to be thicker. I might have...

    Motor suspension?

    That is what I was thinking. They may flex too much. The sprocket isnt welded :/

    Motor suspension?

    SK3's and okay, It was tough. I was only running 1 motor. and I get that. I might still dig into some designs. Heres the progress and the mounts on the motors that I can get so far. They are 3d printed. These are all I have on hand at the moment to show.
