In an effort to save time and quality, I'm starting with the Enertion K1 Kit. http://www.enertionboards.com/buy-diy-enertion-kits-build-your-own-eboard-electric-skateboard/enertion-propulsion-k1-build-longboard-electric-skateboard/
Other necessary parts are the board, electronics, tools and enclosure.
I have a pretty tight budget at $800, all in.
The K1 kit is 387 + 75 shipping. That leaves a mere 338.
I'll probably buy their tool kit as well. $320 left.
I found a nice deck for $80 shipped. https://www.warehouseskateboards.com/globe-drop-down-geminon-yellow-black-longboard-skateboard-deck-9x41
$240 left.
2 50mm NTM motors cost $100 shipped.
$140 left.
100A HKing ESCs are another $100 shipped.
$40 left.
Wifi Reciever $20 (I'll find an old Android device)
4.5Ah 6s Lifepo4 $80
Accucel 6 and PSU, $60
I'm $120 over budget, and the battery is half the size I'd like and I don't have any sort of enclosure.
Is there a cheaper place to get trucks and wheels compatible with the K1 kit? Also, is a WiFi controller alright?
Thanks
