uugghghh so fucking hard to understand before you try

haha acutally looks like his design could use an electric caster wheel, maybe with suspension or a big soft tire… wonder where he could find one of those

For international sourcing these look like an identical wheel profile to the JMK ride version. I know someone found theirs like this on Taobao also.
oh while searching I see these
without the nice rounded profile but it could be ground to have it. It is the correct diameter at least.
you know what my dumb ass was thinking that would work. It has no spinning axle duh. Well I’m gonna leave it here for you to see.

Hey guys. I have been away from tinkering for a long time. I have a lot to catch up to. Yall have been busy !
I wasnt happy with the belt system, its hard to have it well tensioned. So i bit the bullet and ordered direct drive motors.
This is where i am so far.
I hope you are all well
Cheers

Awesome! I would love to see something come out of this project, I love riding my freeboard so I’m also looking to electrify it!

I panicked because i realised suddenly that those new motors have a hall sensor connection. And my sliprings only have 3 wires.
I tried running them only with the 3 central wires, and it seems to work.
But anyway a 3d printed flat slipring with gold plated metal rings might still be the best, and flattest, way to go.
If the whole wheel system is tightened with a common bolt like on a freeboard it is probably the least ratlling system.

Did you back this Quinn?
Being the guru in this stuff, what’s your opinion on it? Interested in these (snowboarding background) but never ridden them. Not common here.

I am waiting because I want to see if I could buy it without the battery and ESCs…
It is pretty much just a hub motor Summerboard with more standard electric skateboard electronics.
