Ok serious input tho : on what do you plan to mount the gear drive? Torque might simply snap the shit outta axles there no? You need maybe 12/15mm steel axles?
Are there any oem trucks able to take that much torque?
Yeah literally hahahaha I bet you like the wanted amount of power, dont you?
Im curious how this board and the whole construction will turn out
I totally like crazy ideas, things out of the box, things like this always brought humanity forth.
Tom Stanton had an issue with a setup like this on his electric bike, seeing this post instantly reminded me of it. He explains the issue in his video very well. The problem is when the belt goes to the first motor pulley it will be under a lot of tension, but after it passes the first pulley it will have a lot less tension so when it reaches the second motor pulley it will skip.
He fixed the issue by having a belt connecting the two motors and then only one motor connected to the wheel.
A gear drive would probably be perfect solution in this situation.
This is insane, 10x 6355 was around what I calculated would be needed to a motorcycle to cruise at highway speed, so on this means burnouts all the way to full speed
…MOREOVER, my motivations. I am not here to out-science, out-engineer, out-craft, or out-ride the insanely talented misfits here.
This build is the answer to any pedestrian, motorist, cyclist, who lets anything less positive than, “what the hell?” to escape their fat mouth. Also, not an attempt to be an esk8 ambassador to the uninitiated. Also fuck them, let them grab the business end of a soldering iron, DIY is hard for a reason, but I digress.
Ideally, I’d like to be able to claim that the power to weight ratio is better than a 997.2 generation 911s. God tier: beat one to 30 or 40mph from a ded stop.
A complete from @MoeStooge or @JaysTCB (and others) would be cheating and they can probably make this claim right meow. I need to be able to say, I did this my damn self, burned fingertips, early carpel tunnel syndrome and all . granted, I’ll probably be seeking their help along with @RipTideSports soon
I’ll clean up the initial post with wiki markup styling, relevant links, good photos, maybe even some maths and let the rest of the rabble rabble carry on. (I can still edit the initial one right?)
I can not wait to see you beating 911’s, I’m guessing it would be possible to have you go up against 918’s albeit you might lose. When someone says Diy is the forefront of innovation for Esk8, this build is what they mean
