Would it be possible to use an electric scooter hub motor?

General Discussion
1

I know that I can hook up the wires but how could I mount it?

2

It’s possible with some ingenuity. I have 5 of them that I want to do something with.

What are you trying to build exactly

4

Just trying to upgrade my current AT board. It has spring trucks right now. I did mount hoverboard motors on them but it is different when the hub motor has a small axle coming out both sides of the hub.

Right. It’s not hard if you can machine parts or can weld. Welding is the easy part. . . Does the axle fit the diameter of the hub motor?

Where you located at? I have some if you are interested.what kind of spring trucks? I have some old spring mbs trucks, I will see if they fit…

Thanks but I already have the trucks.

I realize that. Just to see if they fit. . And since I’m a genius that happens to be a professional jimmyrigger I may share the solutions engineering with everyone.
