Open source electric longboard with 3d Printed parts

thingiverse

The "PEX board" is an open source electric longboard project that everyone can build without any particular skills (excepting skateboarding basics). Complete tutorial: http://eboardmaker.com/build-electric-longboard-tutorial/ It includes all the parts and all the required steps and diagrams. FYI, I have not designed the wheel pulley, I used this model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1719940 (9mm version) Budget for mechanical parts and electric components: $220 to $300 (USD) Budget for a longboard with adapted wheels, trucks and deck: $80 (USD) Overall budget: $300 to $380 (USD) Build time: 4 hours to one weekend Theoric speed of my current setup: 35km/h - Effective speed with my settings: 25km/h Theoric range of my current setup: 25km / Effective range: I need to compile some data before to have a number. It takes me a lot of time and a lot of beer to design these parts from scratch. If you can't buy me some time you can at least help with the beers on http://paypal.me/supportp3x. Or you can buy a t-shirt on https://shop.spreadshirt.ca/eboardmaker/ (I have a little commission on each sales)
