The world’s first electric skateboard train! It takes two adult passengers up to about 200lbs each.
I’m so glad I built my board overspec’d because I have room to raise my settings to move two trailers with speed!
Board is the world’s first talking AI electric skateboard I built. Jarvis is still alive and well.
The main parts are these trailer kits, aluminum square tubing, and plywood. Each one is 2 x 4 x 2 ft.

That’s so cool! Do you get any sort of “crack the whip” effect?

Not at all
only done one ride so far with my parents here. There are all solid arms along the line of movement?
Need to tweak my vesc settings, test my turning and manoeuvrability more, figure out how I’m going to approach speed bumps, etc. So far so good.
Still need to add the electrical part for which I need to design and 3d print some mounts. I had my brake light and rear turn signals on the previous trailer. Got some nice connectors and a single multicore (5 x 20awg) wire this time. I hope the power loss isn’t noticeable. The brake light and turn signals are 12v 2a + 12v 0.5a (x2)

Raised my motor amps a little to give more low speed torque. Dead stop accelerating kinda slow.
Just gave my first rides to strangers! 7 near a community center and they loved it!
