[xadmx]

Looks awesome credit due by there put a lot of effort in. Bet your itching to get out on it

I take it the brake cable feeds to the rear then, easy enough mistake

i no now for next time

daughter testing it out think the top speed will be about 15mph when the battery is full but theres a lot of pull from this little motor.
still need to sort out a mudguard to stop she feet going into the back wheel. i just taped the front panel on for testing.i am 12 stone and it pulls me easy, bet this would rip at 60v.

i keep missing letters when typing its all the 3d printer dust in my keys lol.

first reind 7t 1.6mm wire to test out. i am converting her razor e100 to take the wheel to test it out. i have been looking at a dirt scooter to buy they look easy to mod.

i went to the park with her today we done 10 miles and it still had loads of battery left, i really need a meter on it as its a pain keep using the multi meter.

Got to have a voltmeter and current +/ or watthour for this motor be interesting to say the least get a cheap barbeque temp reader in there so you don't have a melt down get to now its limits bit better.

temp meter is a good idea, we had a heatwave here in the uk the park is 2 miles away and i was walking, so on the way back we both got on it and it pulled us fine but i did get off for the one big hill just incase.

South wales valleys I'm from it was 32°c yesterday to hot for me but i done 15 miles from the missus house and it was nice to have a breeze while on scooter, I burn easy see, much nicer today

i got the 7t wind motor fitted to the razor e100, it has a lot more torque pulling off now on 36v and a bit faster then the other scooter with the standard motor about 20mph and i am 12 stone this really needs 60v now . me and my daughter went for a ride around the block last night and done about 6 miles just to test if everything was ok. my meanwell power supply stopped working so i didn't even charge it before we went out i just built the battery pack and went for a spin. i am going to charge it today and i will put a video up later.


i run out of gas making this so i used no gas wire so the welds look like crap. i am going to clean it all up and spray it i only had a can of yellow so i just put a bit on to stop the rust.
i need to make a bracket for the rear of the deck as i had to cut the one side off to get the wheel on so it has no support.

quick vid of us riding around the local park.

the controller on the scooter with the 7t wind died today, got home and it keeps blowing no3 fet so in the bin it with it. i have a couple of 500w controllers comming but there a bit bigger then the 350 watt so i am making 2 new frames, i am going to be running 48v 10s/13p on them for some extra range and power. the pack looks massive next to the scooter but i hope when its in the frame it will look ok. i have ordered 2 new 13s bms units and a new power supply.
the last few weeks i have killed 4 controllers and 3 power supplys .
plus i have ordered a blow up tyre and inner tube i hope to fit to the hub motor, there is no valve cut out but i have an idea how to sort it out. should make for i lot better ride.

 

[Ianhill]

Any news on the build, what power supply's you using ? They may be a tad beyond their limits if you have poped 3 of them haha.

 

[xadmx]

i am on holday at the moment but hopefully when i get back all the parts have come. ( from china)
the tyre i bought is not going to fit it just will not stretch onto the rim. so now i am thinking about drilling the flange to fit inside some 10" 0r 12" spoked scooter wheel.
i have made the battery packs so it should be a quick build when the bits turn up.
the power supplys where meanwells, last time i will buy them lol.

Ive always used server PSUs they are built to high quality, I got myself a new build going on but got other projects to finish first but I'll do a 18s lipo build by winter hopefully

i bought a cheap 48v server supply to do me for now but i will keep my eye open for a couple more at different voltages.
i have seen your thread with the razor300 i think they look awesome, i was thinking about buying one but the prices are really high so i am waiting to buy a faulty one as i wll only need the frame.

13s 10p battery
500watt 40amp controller
13 bms

i had to cut rthe headset off the razor 100 because i don't have a spare and so i could use the handle bars aswell.



still have to mount the back wheel and make the bottom battery tray.

 

[Ianhill]

How much are you managing to push through one of these before it gets warm, Ive got a spare 48v 1600w controller if its any good to you.

no watt meter on this as its on my bike but i have got one on order. but i was going 20/25mph full throttle all day and only warm to the touch

still a lot to do but i might have it done today to test it out.

[Ianhill]

25mph off one hoverboard wheel is impressive , I like checker plate if its got grip tape finish on it, looks sweet fair play nice little run around.

 

[xadmx]

got these 2 for 40 quid i really want to keep the blow up back tyre so i am going to mount the hub motor as a outrunner and bolt a sprockrt to it.

 

[Ianhill]

Nice idea these hubs are getting many new leases of life now, the MTB friction motor is a neat idea for the average commuter, never seen them Schwinn's before look forward to seeing the Frankenstein they become.

lol i think i might buy some more of these just to mess about with as there so cheap.

this thing flys now plus i can change the gear ratio.

i had to mod the battery so it would fit in the box so it is 13s 8p now.

It sounds nice climbs the revs at a decent pace and gets up the rpms, that was a fast turn around on the scooter one day and its done.

i was only taking it up slow so i didn't blow the controller but i have done a few full starts now and it seems fine, it really needs a 1000w controller . all i had to do is cut off the mount from the razor 100 and weld it to the new frame, drill 4 holes for the sprocket and it was done.

after running this thing hard i could smell a really nasty plastic smell. this is what i found on opening the motor, the plastic insulation has melted so i am going to rewind with some nomex paper and this time i have some hi temp solder.
