Because You spend about 90 usd on power switch which I will not buy, and other thing which not need.
Where is inportant to install motor for climbing? Is better at front?
I used an ebay china esc, which came with a power switch. I swear you cannot make a decent board for cheaper than i did, actually 390 bucks

You have only read this forum for a total of 2 hours. Seriously, go read more posts and educate yourself before you make mistakes which will cost you hundreds of dollars. Iâm saying this from personal experience from my first build.

Your range is directly related (y = kx) to watthours(wh) which is calculated by voltage times amp-hour (ah). With the same amount of packs, series and parallel arrangement will not affect the range. Having a parallel setup means more amp hours but you have to push more amps due to your low voltage. With packs in series, you can push in less current to achieve the same power since you have more voltage. If anything, go with a series setup since they Have a wider speed range and put out less heat.
Just a note on your budget, esk8 is really something you donât want to cut corners on. Unless you have mechanical background or some sort, getting away with a decent model without problems is very unlikely. Best of luck my friend. 
You canât use have two batteries in series and one in parallel. Each group of parallel batteries must be the same voltage. If you used three batteries youâd have one parallel group at 6S and one at 3S, which is Very Badâ˘.
I understand. Must have two group of 6. Four baterry. I think will stay on 2 baterry in series, for now. Thanks.
I was so naive in to think my build was just going to slightly surpass the $ 1000 barrier. In reality, the way is going right know is skyrocketing out of the charts!!

@Bimmer Thank you. I will not buy that hub motorized wheels. I watched many videos hub vs belt.
Somebody tell me is deck 80x20 cm is long enough for that?
So this trucks above is bigger than my deck

The motor mount might look rubbish, but when applied correctly to the truck - it is really good. I have used one before, thatâs why i know this. I had to file down the truck, do some precision drilling into the truck (so that the set screws hold tight) and also added epoxy in the end inbetween the mount and the truck (overkill 
) the mount never bent or showed any kind of wear/tear - though i would avoid it myself since there are a lot better solutions out there that require about half less time to attach to the board.

âŚgood example, butttt âŚsaving the overpriced Enertion r-spec 6372 motor. Is like building an economic car in your garage and chosing a Ferrari Testarossa V12 double overhead cam-twin turbocharged engine to motorize the dang frankenstein thing.

Do you recomend me that esc 3 in 1 ?
There are many identical esc on eBay. Buy one sold by diclyho2015, or evoked shop, both sold by @dickyho
What is average size of deck which you using?
There are longboards (typically tailless) and skateboards/cruisers (typically have a tail)
Most longboards are 36" to 42"
Most cruisers are 28" to 34"
But there are exceptions to all of that
