I just love going forward in lateral direction. I have an aversion to skiing and I roller blading and all things that dont resemble surfing. I just like going forward in a lateral direction. And fast. That’s how I like it. So is there a way to scrap the pads on these self balancing swagtrons and incorporate it into a eboard design model?
Just a thought, thanks for any input. Cheers!
Google “hoverskate” or “hoverboard skateboard build”
There’s a few youtube vids, it’s just a set of hub motors and some jiggery in the end. I’d suggest it would be easier to just buy some motors from aliexpress and start fresh but if you’re in it for the experience it’s been done!
Depending on your budget, it might be worth salvaging the motors and battery, but you will get a much better experience if you make something more purpose made
You might be able to make one of these: DIY Onewheel Hoverboard I’ve been meaning to buy a hoverboard and make one myself.
