It’s 2017 and the dreams of dozens of us concerning the AT Enertion model live on. I’m only guessing here, but I suppose you’ll wait with any announcements for the second half of the year not to impair the sales of the Raptor 2, won’t you, Jason? But I’m sure to jump on the bandwagon once Enertion’s AT’s out!
Might be the case, monkey32, might easily be the case. Jason mentioned developing an AT board right after Raptor 2, and I love his concepts so I think I’ll be waiting on Enertion’s call on that
Hes actually had a prototype running but suspect it all went on hold with R2. I wouldn’t hold your breath it will be a long wait. On his vid he never says a date.
Maybe someone can answer these questions about the board in Jasons vlog videos.
Does anybody know where to get these hub motors?
Does any “self balancing board”-motor from alibaba work or would they have a kv rating that is too low?
And last thing: would it be possible to switch the tyres to some nice brand mountain board tyres?
If you look closely at Jason’s AT prototype, the hub motors are mounted to a custom made truck. To make the above motor work, or any other hub motor on that site, some modification to the trucks is most likely necessary.
How does the thing work at low speeds? I’m thinking that, on poor terrain, you’re not going to be zipping along at 38km/h. What kind of voltage/current/heat/power consumption are you seeing at, say 3mph?
