Hi,
The purpose of this project was to find out if a electric mountain board could be made almost entirely with 3d printed parts.
After alot of testing i decided to use ASA/PETG/TPU plastics for this build.
3D printed battery case is made of ASA plastic, and i added “fast locking/release” mechanism for battery.
3D printed battery cell holders, made of TPU plastic
Building battery with my old diy spot welder. Battery nominal voltage 36V and designed 60A constant current.
Flipsky 6.6 Vesc enclosure, designed to match board shapes.
Prototyping drivetrain, i made wheel adapter of tpu plastic. No additional bolts for ensuring wheel to the toothed gear
