New Drives available @BOUNDMOTOR
Seems more solid, but not really found about the “food can” look
Did you order them?
Nope, will not, I have the old gen which is still ok
You have the older version from bound motor?
LOL, I’ll let our designers know.
Are you guys JED board too?
No, they’re eLofty, when eLofty was gone Boundmotor appeared.
You don’t have to, they probably are right
Function over form
Boundeloft
But did the IP addresses match?
Looks like Boundmotor have a new AT direct drive/hub model.
Details are sketchy. It’s featured on their new Titan board.
Not sure if they will offer it on its own.
Uses the 190mm airless tires. But where is the wheel nuts?
WTN???
It’s not DD it’s a 190mm hub motor. Omfg.
Not sure how they attach to the trucks.
They must be a very low kV as top speed is only 30km/hour but can climb a 30 degree incline the later I am calling BS.
But if it can I want them.
Kind of tempted despite the low speed… Could run them at 16S.
I wouldn’t do that
Looks like it’s on one of those sappy decks that no-one seemed to like due to the weird softness
If you want AT hub motors, i strongly recommend Backfire’s Ranger X2 motors. You can buy the whole truck assembly from them, iirc. Pretty torquey, top speed aint great (though that could be limited by software, no way of knowing with the hobbywing controller that came with it unless i throw a vesc in haha), but the rubber wheels are pretty comfortable for airless and they are very reliable in my experience. I have put over 500 miles on my ranger, more than half of those in the pouring rain, and they are still going strong. Need to clean the bearings, but other than that. No issues.
Nice to hear great things about these budget AT hubs
Yep those are the ones! Very comfortable ride, grip is great. The rubber is pretty soft so it wears down eventually, but nothing horrible. I have toyed with the idea of putting a vesc in to get more torque and/or speed out of these. But i dont like taking apart working builds.
@DerelictRobot Mate, would you be able to check something for me ? I have at this moment the 90KV from @torqueboards, extremely satisfied with them on 110mm 74A, as long as the road is not messed up (put already 3/4K km on them).
You can check the build thread here "The Feet Fatigue" - 150km range TB DD machine
I tried the airless AT wheels from @Esk8supply, but the torque sucks ass… Not even talking about up hill
I am tempting on breaking the bank again and get their special 60KV, Janux Bermesiter kegel adaptor to finally be able to ride AT, but first I would like to know if they perform good enough ? Meaning torque wise uphill, temperature…
Would you have some data to share, videos, pictures…. Anything really
Thanks a bunch
@ThomasL I tried on 2WD and it wasn’t enjoyable personally. Not enough torque even on 75KV.
4WD would possibly be doable. We also do have the adapters for out AT Tires for the TB DD. Just not available on the website.
