I'm planning to build a 3-wheel electric skateboard (finished build thread coming later) using a Magic Pie 5 as the rear drive motor. I used the MP5 in a 26" ebike I built until I swapped it out for a lighter geared motor after my spokes snapped twice in two years. To use it with a skateboard...

I have a 48V Lyen 9 FET controller that I connected to a Bafang BPM2 hub motor. Currently, it has some unintended behavior. When I push the throttle past a certain point, the controller spins the motor all the way up to full speed, and does not stop spinning at full speed until I move the...

Laser cut from 304 stainless steel. My dropout has holes for a disc brake caliper and pannier, I used those to hold the torque arm. The torque arm is also extended backward to mount the pannier a bit further back because I carry a crate on top of it. A smaller piece of steel allows the weight of...

I got a Lyen 9 FET controller for a hub motor build. One of my requirements was that I should limit the acceleration/ramp up speed of the motor so I'm not pushing my motor too hard on acceleration. My riding style is that I like to cruise at 20mph (up to 25mph if I have a tailwind) and pedal to...
