āmainā build that I threw together out of spare parts for a weekend and then used full time since then
2wd
170kv (I think, will double check)
6354 - Maytech
2.4 pulley ratio (36:15, also need to double check)
85mm cafe
10s2p 30Q
~17A battery per side
~60A motor (might be more)
100kg rider, Iām fairly sure the throttle curve and deadband are just at default
~500km total
20-30km/h most of the time
~35" deck with cutouts at both ends so not a huge standing platform
Torque is a funny one; because itās a bit thrown together, the roads here are mostly crap, and the wheels are fairly small, I feel every bump and thereās a lot of vibration and rattling. Iām also not a super adventurous rider when Iām not at the park, so most of the time Iām not using the available torque on most boards anyway. If that sounds like you too, it feels nice and snappy when I need it, like 7 or 8/10
I just finished building my first HV board, with ~6,000w of continuous power per side.
I currently have it on 175mm tires with a top speed of 34mph, and Iām getting used to this much power under my feet. It feels overpowered but I might just need to dial in my throttle curve. There is aggressive amounts of torque at any speed. Top speed would be 40mph on 200mm tires.
Mrs Brownstone - street build 1st build
drop down deck
120 clouds
Batt 12s 5p 30q 80a con
6355 170kv
m1GD helical speed ratio 35/64
Stormcore 60d+
battery 40a per side
motors 65a
solid torque still ,not as good as standard ratio but the speed gain is huge
geared to 50 mph ā¦current top i have done is 40 mph was intense .
Flux v1 deck
8" kenda
3ds 1:4 straight GD
16s6p p42a
173kv skp 6485
Lacroix 100d
110 motor amps/side
Hoyt puck
6.5/10 power, I like being scared of my board and I feel like I have complete control over it and can do more than what its capable of, time to upgrade
I do need top end lol, but I need tourqe I dont have, i sit at 50+ for a mile or so at a time since I dont like going slower than traffic so any time Iām on a 45mph road I chill at 50 which I couldnt do with a different ratio. I need more amps since I like hill climb and I dont want to be able to keep the throttle pinned on a hill like I can. I see skyarts new esc in my future.
But then I would only have a top speed of 44mph according to the calculator
Iām planning on doing a whole new board since I want more than 16s, better vesc, stiffer deck, bigger motors so I dont overheat in summer, at that point I might as well either sell this board whole or keep it as a backup
battery configuration 12s8p vapcel 21700 Per motor:
battery current max 60
motor current max 80
Average cruising speed 30kmh
motor size and brand: 6385 reacher
drivetrain type: board dynamics m1-at gear drive
wheel type: MBS mud tyres 200x50
deck info: Ramm boards mtbr1 with MBS f5 bindings
esc type: bkb xenith
This is my first eskate and build so my view is a bit skewed.
I feel I could use more torque off the mark but that would be due to the high kv motors I have, but it makes up for it with the top end cruising speed of well more than Iāll ever need. So far Iāve managed about 700km on this build and havenāt really had much major issues
Not heatsinked ATM but will be today after having some thermal cutoffs on a longer ride. If I keep having heat issues them Iāll start looking into a bigger ESC to handle the higher amps
Maybe, I have only ridden this board and my old Duo so I donāt really know what I want besides that I like this board. Why, do you have something interesting?
