i’ve just come across this interesting (interesting to me anyway) motor. seems like a combination of geardrive and hub. https://www.ecomobl.com/collections/m24-parts-accessories/products/motor-for-m20?variant=31914347462734
Anyone know anything about them? lets say someone was to try them out for the community i guess they’d have to get a hanger that had been milled back to accomodate them, unless there’s a an existing hanger that has this feature…?
I think there were a couple company’s trying to conquer the market with Planetary gear drives but i don’t know any that succeeded.
ahh right, i looked up this brand but couldnt see much here about geardrive system didn’t know it was called ‘planetary’. will look it up
pretty much all the chinese brand use this / similar looking remote
meepo for example:
this is the latest remote for lingyi esc i think
Dear lord someone buy this man a deadblow
I mean… that’s a little better but cmon.
have to buy all the other parts to use those motors I think, as it is just the motor not including the gearbox or bearings for gearbox.
Ask yourself if you want to be doing all this^ shit
Geo Engineering reasons. Moved.
OOOF that music…
Planetary Gear drives
DIYeBoard, circa 2015 volan makes a planetary drive for his mountainboard 
but its never sold
Start board single planetary drive launches on kickstarter, units actually end up in customer’s hands before the first hub motors but they scam half the buyers
Someone built a DIY one
There was a new zealand student who made an indiegogo with some new planetary design on a self balancing board but I can’t find it
Was it the one Jay Boston touted?
Just based on location, yea its possible he did a video on it. Its an extremely obscure thing to remember because they weren’t funded. If anyone can find it i’d be pretty amazed. Maybe they were Aussie? idk.
Alright for my own sanity I found it, you’re right
god damnit, i spent the last 13 minutes searching the video. THe second i pressed reply you posted it.
Here it is anways so i don’t feel useless.
FYI this particular model has been around for a while before ecomobl. Test rode the original early last year, it was called the Falcon. The board is terrible with a LingYi esc but the motors are very torquey and cool
I so wanna build a planetary gear-drive for direct drive … But there is only so much time in a year of wishes.
I played around with designing one a week ago and it wasn’t too bad. Solidworks power transmission toolbox made it pretty darn easy to model up. I just have no faith in getting it actually made by a company
