I did exactly the same project few months ago and scooter still going strong. I have overvolted this motor to 75 volts as i have found it was slow on hoverboard battery that is only 36volt nominal. Now it pulls like a horse and peak at 2000wats!!! You should make polyurethane tyre for back wheel as this solid rubber cause lots of rolling resistance and your motor will be hot after few miles. Mine after polyurethane mod runs cool and consume 50%less energy so its a mod worth doing
Olga Piskorska you can't replace with pneumatic tyre as there is no space for tube valve you would have to drill thru hub motor and magnets and then motor stator would prevent wheel from spinning unless you would somehow mods this and route valve to come out on the side of motor. I basicly used polyurethane same material that skate wheels are made off. You can buy kit mix two part like resin and pour into mold and you get perfect low rolling resistance wheel. Please check my channel I have short video showing my scooter partially finished
I did a 350w conversion recently, I made the battery 250wh 7ah 2p10s Mj1 ... I split the pack and placed 4 batteries within each side hole of the chassis rail, as well as 12 batteries in the centre channel, there was also room in the centre channel for the controller ! I still have rear suspension too ! ;) I may copy your battery cover technique !
Very impressed, I have a broken hoverboard just sitting around so I was gonna try and make something out of it, the only problem is that I lack some electronics knowledge. I would love to see you explain like what and why the electronics parts do, for instance that yellow connector, the different wires that stick out of that speed controller box.
Great job, I love you attention to detail. I am currently doing a similar project, I am using a 10 inch hoverboard and using the motors, battery and charger to build an adult size trike.
that was so neat a build that if i never watched this video and saw a photo of the scooter i would 100% believe it was bought from a shop! thats a testiment to your build skills right there!
Nice work, With the hover board I will make a push unit to latch on the back of the scooter plus a steel cable to tilt the hover board to go forward or to stop. Cut and narrow the fibre glass stand on the hover board as it will not be needed. Presto!!
You nailed it.... If you can point me in a direction of a Razor 300 type motor connected to a Yeddoo type scooter with a Shimano Alfine internal 11-speed hub with the electronic gearing. That should be your next project...that was freaking awesome...
awesome build. i mean, you could buy a xiami scooter for basically the same price and have an app and mod the controller, but i like the idea of learning. things like this i want to do with my kids as they get older so they can learn to figure things out on their own as adults. fun video to watch regardless.
Excellent job, through and through. I can do all the steps you did, but not as cleanly as you ! Congratulations. In hindsighting, designing a covered place for the controller inside the brackt would have been the better option. Still, a great build
Hover board scooters serve as great parts, im sure you could have made it a little faster and also since its so stealthy in shape, most people wont even know its electric. I have a kids razor like that, looks like a push scooter, I just loaded it with more batteries inside the frame, heavier but went from 10km range to 15km and less slowing down as it has more power within my 5-6km one way commute.
You clearly didn't hack that in two days, that's a well done project with a very impressive attention to detail. Not a fan of the position and (lack of) protection of the cells, though :-( Idea for a V2: use the second wheel as well and make it dual motor like a Tesla :-D
Because he would have not enough space for the battery & controller ! (unless he copied my technique ;) --- "" did a 350w conversion recently, I made the battery 250wh 7ah 2p10s Mj1 ...

The video was great! In Japan, you can't easily ride an Electric scooters yet. The law is troublesome. I'm looking forward to the video! With love from Japan :)
Amazing video! Thank you for the detailed instructions. I am building one now and all I need to do is install the electronics and I will be on the road!
Very nice work !!! I like your scouter!!! It would be great to have brakes. Brakes is important in crowded places. Maybe add breakes in another movie ;)
I have the same controller and I am building a scooter with inspiration from your video. What should I connect to the throttle? The wires don't seem to match.
Hey man! Nice clean job! Is your fuse on the negative side of the battery? I usually put it on the positive side. Any particular reason why you went to the negative side?
Awesome video my friend 👌 I would really love to also do this Diy project. But I would be a bit scared to go down hills & not able to stop but would there be a way to add some type of brakes etc.?? Thanks: Joseph
Hi, great video, really done well. I'm also planning for a similar build, is it possible to share the drawing of the bracket you made? (so that i can customize it as per my requirement).
Question about the VESC, does it need cooling? Running 50A continuous through it must get things pretty hot. I plan to use this with a 10S lipo to power a 350w hub motor scooter. My current cheap chinese controller uses trapezoid waveform so things are very noisy and there is lots of power loss. This controller seems to output a clean sine wave, however there are no hall sensor wires?
Greetings, thank you for sharing excellent work, you would be so kind to tell me that you soldered or soldered in the back of the controller, thanks from Colombia
Great, excellent, wonderfull ! Thanks for your dedication!

This is awesome! Such a neat finish, looks factory made! Could the motor be used for seven braking? You wouldn't put much power back in the battery but might get significant resistance to slow the scooter more effectively than the original brake design!
Hi! Awesome build! How did you find the wattage of the motor? I have an old monowheel motor (14'') that I want to use for a big scooter (offroad) project but I'm not sure of which speed controller I must buy... Also I'm worried with the hall sensors because it might not be color coded as the motor is. Did you have this issue? Thanks
EBS !!!! Very effective ! electronic braking system .. its like a thumb throttle , you apply an amount and the magnetic field in the motor holds the motor, resisting the rotation thus braking is applied.
Not sure about life time of this build without dust and water protection. Big question is the price, it's not under 200 eur. Just hover board cost more than that, + throttle button, lcd, etc. There are some good options for about 350-400 eur, basically about same price. But if you have that all as a garbage and don't have to buy any of that parts, it's good and fun DIY project.
You must have charging port connected to the speed controller. Cable Is named "Charging port" and you must it charge same voltage as your battery. Sorry, for my bad english
I like your ideas but Have you ever think about shaking the front wheel? because of the valances, front wheel and back wheel when 60kg to 100kg ride on board to speed up it should be shaking front wheel. too heavy the backside. What are people evaluated?
Really awesome work, dude. Really well done! 😀 BTW, I made a 10w LED flashlight inspired in your 100w one. I think it's going to be published in two weeks. 😊
hi, nice video. i have a question, can you share the electric layout? because i see that you put a paralel cable to connect the cable to charge the battery, and other question is when you charge the battery the speed controller has always power. is not better to connect the power switch just before the speed controller and the you will just charge the battery, without any peak cuurent problem during charging? thank you
Make some effort add some bearings with a spring and put both motor wheels which would reduce the stress on each of the motors and you should get at least 40km/h. I am just saying. Nice video btw
@Johny Motors this man Mr. Cop, i think is the 1st one that used the smart balance hub motor wheel as a way to convert a manual kick scoot to electric kick scoot, he has a video posted way back in 2015, just search d vid frm his channel.. 👍😊 ua-cam.com/video/9BwBboAXk-Q/v-deo.html
I'm not going to build such a scooter anytime soon, but I must confess, I'm really impressed by your skills! Impressive DIY project imo!
HODYO Design I 2nd this. Well done

Rob Roberts yes my friend
Does the PU wheel wear down quickly though?

I love how easily everything was for you mine will take me for ever to build and look nothing as good as this one great job
That is the best DIY electric scooter build I've seen on UA-cam great work.

Thanks for sharing this. I’m thinking of doing something with my granddaughter’s hoverboard.
Fantastic build and tutorial. Thanks for sharing without unnecessary self-adulation and personal choice of wank music 😊

Please do a diy video on converting a knee scooter into a seated electric scooter. Please pretty please! I’ll bet you’ll go viral!
awesome build. i mean, you could buy a xiami scooter for basically the same price and have an app and mod the controller, but i like the idea of learning. things like this i want to do with my kids as they get older so they can learn to figure things out on their own as adults. fun video to watch regardless.
Its a CLEAN DIY build, I have seen around.
You could get yourself a regenerative braking able controller. It would solve the braking issue while being able to charge your battery as well
You did a tremendously good job!
Yup thx
Excellent job, through and through. I can do all the steps you did, but not as cleanly as you ! Congratulations. In hindsighting, designing a covered place for the controller inside the brackt would have been the better option. Still, a great build
That's sick! Wish I could do that to my kick scooter but I don't have the skills necessary.
Very clean nice work. Great that you chould use a broken hooverboard to make this
C😎😎L project.

That's awesome man. But I was thinking why not mod the stock rear suspension to accept the hover board wheel?!
Either way amazing job on the built.

I'm so glad I save like three of these things but only the motors
Amazing video! Thank you for the detailed instructions. I am building one now and all I need to do is install the electronics and I will be on the road!
I have never seen such an excellent job, I am impressed. truly. Genious!!
Impressive! Just bottom of the e-scooter requires very descent protection as it will be damaged all the time... Especially bottom is low...
You can add the second motor from the hoverboard on the back so you have more power
Very nice work !!! I like your scouter!!! It would be great to have brakes. Brakes is important in crowded places. Maybe add breakes in another movie ;)
How do you charge the battery? Do you just connect thw battery power outlet to the original hoverboard adaptor(charger)? Is that safe?
Just plug into wall
Wow not bad. I like your work! I build an electric longboard with hoverboard parts.
can you post plans of the hub motor mounting bracket please?
Красавчик, прямые руки, все очень аккуратно!
Ну мы тоже не плохо делаем ua-cam.com/video/E_Yo5i4nRtA/v-deo.html
These videos are always exiting and fine until they casually take apart and put back together batteries or use things like welding.
I was a bit worried about that at first, but he did it properly and safely.
nice 😁 next time buy a Dualtron escort that runs about 80 kmp 😎 i use that thing all over singapore. n love it.
You're really smart, you made the best scooter on youtube!
You look amazing, buddy. What a top design! Congratulations
Where is the brake?
I am impressed , however why have you not included lights for the front and rear ?.
I wish company’s could make as good as of a product as you did. I wish I could make my own
I have the same controller and I am building a scooter with inspiration from your video. What should I connect to the throttle? The wires don't seem to match.
Awesome!! Care to share the issues that you've found out about this scooter?
Amazingly neat work BUT why did you remove suspension ??? Also i want to see your lion welding tool !!
Awesome project!!! Good job! Anyone know how to make the hoverboard motor brake?
Hi I am again can you please a video or a plan show how everything is wired please because I would like to copy it
Really nice! why didnt you keep the rear suspension tho?
Nice job! I like that its RWD
Impressive clean wirings.
you should try making a second model with front and rear wheel drive.
can you do a DIY : electric skateboard conversion with scooter parts?
Looks impressive and also absolutely dangerous, especially for someone who doesn't understand anything. I'll throw out the defective hoverboard lol
Hey man! Nice clean job! Is your fuse on the negative side of the battery? I usually put it on the positive side. Any particular reason why you went to the negative side?
How you changed the rotation direction of the wheel? Can somebody explain me that please :) , nice video! The best about this topic buddy !
lolz !! it was just a setting within that particular controller lcd set up ;) p5 reverse motor rotation 'Save"
Awesome video my friend 👌 I would really love to also do this Diy project. But I would be a bit scared to go down hills & not able to stop but would there be a way to add some type of brakes etc.?? Thanks: Joseph
Privet Bratan, have you tried to run it with 48v?
Mad skills! Build a simple car next. God bless , aloha
They sell a kit now for regular scooter right?
You should've bought a speed controller with regenerative braking
Hi, great video, really done well. I'm also planning for a similar build, is it possible to share the drawing of the bracket you made? (so that i can customize it as per my requirement).
*Cool la trotinette électrique moi j'ai fabriquer un chariot électrique avec 2 roues de hoverboard c'est puissant.*
A video I've looking since many months 🙏
Fantastic build and excellently filmed.
Cool tho wouldnt be easier to adapt the existing wheel bracket? also did you consider changing the front wheel too for 2WD?
Question about the VESC, does it need cooling? Running 50A continuous through it must get things pretty hot. I plan to use this with a 10S lipo to power a 350w hub motor scooter.

Great video...a little technical for your average joe, I'll just buy a kit tho.
Great, excellent, wonderfull ! Thanks for your dedication!

Could the motor be used for seven braking? You wouldn't put much power back in the battery but might get significant resistance to slow the scooter more effectively than the original brake design!

What about the brakes?

On this motor controller you should have braking wires, check the user manual or ebay page ;)
personally I would have repainted the control module of the scooter in black to keep this side low profile
My friend, kudos on 1) The build. And 2) The Editing!! Superb. Succinct. Awesome!!!! You should make a video on "video editing".....Lol
Good assembly i waiting my parts for this project. But I can not decide how to brake, any suggestions?
EBS !!!! Very effective ! electronic braking system .. its like a thumb throttle , you apply an amount and the magnetic field in the motor holds the motor, resisting the rotation thus braking is applied.

But if you have that all as a garbage and don't have to buy any of that parts, it's good and fun DIY project.
Just buy used, i found the same scooter for 60€, hoverboard for 70€, both fully functional, the controller is around 40€
Thx bro.. I just made the same modifications.. Easy and ready to wish Its for real lol
Man i did it all but how can i charge it now?
You must have charging port connected to the speed controller. Cable Is named "Charging port" and you must it charge same voltage as your battery. Sorry, for my bad english

Impressive and clean build!
Brilliant job I just wish I was technically minded cause I'd luv to build one
Really awesome work, dude. Really well done! 😀
BTW, I made a 10w LED flashlight inspired in your 100w one. I think it's going to be published in two weeks. 😊

Outstanding! A very nice piece of work.
Very cool, nice work! I'm inspired to do a similar project now.
Congratulations !!! Very good work.
Very nice conversion. Good work.
Man, you rock! I´ll follow your lesson and build one!
Im very impressed. Thank you for the video.
I'm impressed with your work! Also, that is way more work than I'd ever be willing to do for that...
Impressive build and also video production. Keep up, Jehu. Thanx
Hell of a job. Wow impressive.. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What you did here is basically Xiaomi M365 in terms of speed and range, minus the design part.
Make some effort add some bearings with a spring and put both motor wheels which would reduce the stress on each of the motors and you should get at least 40km/h. I am just saying. Nice video btw
Johnny Motors
that’s not how it works, just saying...
Bernard Ellefsen then he should put a 300cc engine on the back and that's it :)) 100mph guaranteed (then will have to look for a "resting" place)
Johnny Motors just slap on a 115 300Lbs jet engine, and then you don’t have to worry about anything.
@Johny Motors
