Hello everyone. You may have seen the thread on this build already, but I just posted the video this morning and wanted to share it…with everyone. It’s my first published eskate video and so any traction is appreciated. There’s plenty more coming, so a subscription would be more appreciated.
Yes, I think I hovered between 31-32. It’s using a 72t wheel pulley, 15t motor pulley, on 7" Evolve tires. 190Kv FS motors. Torque is nice, but tops out around 31 I’d say.
I ended up using the older Flipsky motors, they have both the 30mm and 44mm holes. I’ve read that you can order the new gen motors with 30mm holes if you request it from them but I haven’t done that myself.
It is quite nice, way out on Long Island there are some very nice paths.
The drone is a Skydio 2, so it normally just follows. I use it with a GPS beacon, so it doesn’t ever lose me, and I can adjust height and follow direction from the beacon.
