Hi im a bit confused right now and i hope your can help me.
I will be making a electric longboard with a around 450Wh Litihum Ion pack 18650. I know how to make the pack and is using a spot welder and some 1.5mm thick solid copper wire.
Nr. 2 Is the same as nr.1 but with this ESC
I talked to hobbyking support, and they said it was the only one i would use, since braking would harm the motor with regular ESC, And startup would be with pushing.
Nr. 3 which is the most expensive consists of a 10S configuration.
I think nr 3 is the best but im not sure. Im looking forward to your repies and help. i will be using the board for traveling on road and with max speed of 30-35 km/H
Change wheel pulley to 36T and buy some bigger wheels for example Kegels or flywheels.
With 10s use 190kv motor so you don’t need to limit your vesc and lower kv should give some more torque.
You are right. But i plan on sawing off the egde of the motor mount if i choose to use a 60mm motor. But im just a bit confused about what i should get.
Lets begin, you can use 6s, it is cheaper, but less speed and less torque! If you use the Vesc you can’t use a 260kv motor with 10s, because the Vesc have a ERPM limit, if you pass it you can burn your vesc, so do the calculation, Battery Voltage (4.2 x Number of Cells) x KV x 7, if this pass 60k you will need to limit your Vesc in the BLDC tool and lose speed! My opinion is that you need to search a bit more man, there are some mistakes on your build, like, a 380kv motor won’t work nicely, it can run, but it will overheat and won’t have enough torque! If you want a cheap build do this
-245kv 6364 Sk3
-6s 5000mah 25c
-Bms
-Vesc
-Switch and another things
-Diyelectric Mechanical Kit
