Hi building a really cheap board for my bro he is only 11 so doesn’t need much speed or range
I have a motor, deck mounts and trucks
I need 2 of those 90mm abec clones (I have the other 2)
1 vesc any type or version (preferably around £20?)
A battery of any size with any cells, he only needs around 3-5 miles of range
Really flexible on parts but trying to keep everything under £70
What do you think I am in uk please help out if you can
Really don’t care much about quality stuff more just trying to get him into the hobby
Thanks

Clones in the back for the pulleys; and buy good wheels without an esk8 core for the front

Maybe see if you can get some used trucks and put uber soft bushings in it for his light weight.
dickyho stuff is cheap. For the battery you could use cheap lipos, maybe even used if you can find some.
So got some trucks and mounts just need a battery and vesc
@rusins good idea will probably do that

So didn’t work out with @Mainflow

£20 for a working vesc is probably a fantasy

I have a shitty Hobbyking ESC flying around, but I will not sell it.

Why not a flipsky 4.12 new is £35 so someone used could be £20
This is the kind of thing I am looking for
Current: 50A Continuous / 150A Peak. The PCB adoptes a gold-thickening process with 6-layer PCB layout design, the thickness of each layer copper foil is 3OZ, the PCB tptal copper foil thickness is 18OZ.
Attach that to a 10s2p of those cheap LG cells meepo use and I have a 15mph 5 mile board

I’ve got a new 10s2p with d140 bms made from these cells.
Long range but not massive Amps.
Probably put £160 of materials into it.

Yeah but £160 is way to high for me
I am looking more around £50 or so maybe 5ah and 10-20 amps sort of range

I’ll let it go for £100 to stop you setting yourself on fire?

I could give you one old meepo 10s2p for free if you pay shipping, but it has dead bms so you will have to be responsible with it, check with multimeter often if groups are still balanced

This is for my little bro
He weighs like 30kg so I am just using a tiny 5065 motor single driven he doesn’t need speed or anything so I only need a tiny battery
£100 is to much for him he wants to spend around £70 on battery plus vesc
Vesc I can get for around £25 for a used flipsky one
Battery max of £50
