I planning on building a one wheel (name change to protect the innocent ) after watching Louis Rossmann discuss Future Motion failure of right to repair and patent troll. (trotter, float wheel etc)
I living in Vietnam so my only option is DIY purchasing parts from Aliexpress and Shopee and Lazada online retailers.

Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated, still in the R&D stage. I chosen best parts for the price as i want to keep cost low but still have a decent one wheel
I experienced in electronics and have a 3D printer
My main concern is the choice of motor, will 60V be too fast or less torque?
best way to mount the axle, I plan to use 40mm length of 12x6 aluminum bar with axle cut out inside of 20 40 rail.
