If I could be of assistance, it would be to choose your items in a certain order. Don’t choose anything else until you’ve chosen your deck and enclosure. Because you need to know if it will even fit. Enclosures are much more difficult than you think, and you need to know if flexibility will be something you design for, or not. So go in a certain order, along the whole way making sure you choose things that are compatible with each other.
helmet
deck + enclosure (flex?)
battery (flex?)
ESC(s)
drivetrain & trucks & motor mount
wheels
motors
{everything else} remote
aesthetics: grip, colors, lights
Leaving enclosures until last as an afterthought is a surefire way to end up in a less-than-ideal position.
@rusins mentioned it right above that. There is no “right way” but certain traps have been fallen in by many others many times, and avoiding those can be key to early success.
