I'm also interested to know what cnc you use? Is it an OpenBuilds?

Boosted boards runs on lifepo4. You may have put to much voltage in it.

We do group buys on electric-skateboard.builders . Recently, we did a group buy on Samsung 25r.

I would connect it on the ESC side. Maybe @whitepony could help you with this since he has done it before. Lipo's should work well.

Could you post a picture of your wiring? @torqueboards Could help with this.

Be careful with the wiiceiver and solder it. It can lose connection and go full speed or brake whilr you are riding if it loses connection. I'd get torqueboards 2.4ghz remote.

The IMAX B6AC V2 has a built in power supply.

Any updates on this project?

Thanks guys.

I have looked on heaps of car battery websites. The only ones I could find were these: http://www.giantpower.com.au/45ah-12v-agm-deep-cycle-battery Maybe your country has a wider range of batteries because I can barely find any.

I can't find any batteries in Australia that will work with this. Where did you buy yours?

Torqueboards ESC works with the wii remotes but the wii remotes have dropouts which can cause accidents. I would spend the most money on the esc, it's the ost important bit.

2 things with your build: I'd go with a GT2B because that transmitter and receiver has a lot of drop outs and they can cause accidents because you don't have control over the board. You could always get diyelectricskateboard.com 2.4ghz controller which is just as small and much more reliable...

6s = 22.2volts and 12s = 44.4volts. More voltage = more power and hill climbing ability.

You can get one from Enertion or Chaka from Ollin Boards
