Power Traverse - electric snowboard

Those torque arms are super interesting, how is the rotation handles I’m turns? Are you using ball pivots, bushings or something else?

@tech.shit on edge the arms lift the motor from the snow line.

When you lean back to tail-press they are designed to dig in and bite more.

The entire arm is a bushing, it deflects in every direction. (The energy is focused to release vertically.)

Just enough material to suspend the motor from the tail.

20s seems almost too powerful, or is it just fast and fun?

Snow has a poor traction coefficient.

If it’s fast, even the haters will want one.

Thanks to @shaman our controller is now alive.

We will use Little FOCers as our OEM controller tuned to our motors @ 20s.

My buddy lives behind A-frame I couch surf :wink:

Super cool! How do the threaded studs on the dead axle of the motor (would you technically call that a dead axle?) connect to the mounting arms?
