Making a huge electric scooter with fat tires and hoverboard motors
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 чер 2024
- In this video you see me building a powerful DIY electric scooter with a glow in the dark frame and fat tires.
The video contains the full build from start to finish. The design is loosely based on the Lightcycle featured in the movie TRON.
I used the rear wheels from an old ATV and 2 hoverboard motors to power it.
The frame is made from 30mm x 30mm x 2mm C channel. I added LED strips inside the C channel and covered it with opal acrylic to diffuse the light. The LEDs are powered by 2 lead acid batteries.
Front brake is a drum brake from the ATV, rear brake is a bicycle disc brake.
It drives very well, however the range is rather small (around 10 kms) because it's fairly heavy and the wheels are so big. I will have to switch to bigger battery packs.
Specs:
2 x hoverboard motor 36v 350w
2 x 48v 350w BLDC controller
2 x 48v lithium pack to power the motors
2 x 12v lead acid batteries to power the LEDs
topspeed: around 30km/u
range: around 10 kms
chapters:
0:00 - intro
0:12 - connecting brake and axle to the front wheel
1:33 - building front fork
4:28 - connecting motors to rear wheel
7:02 - building the frame
10:23 - welding out everything
10:55 - building the battery tray
11:59 - final assembly
12:54 - cutting and soldering LED strips
13:56 - installing end caps, LED strips and acrylic
16:30 - connecting electronics
17:00 - presentation of the finished scooter
17:54 - testdrive

I am back with another electric scooter build! Let me know what you think in the comments. Thanks for watching!!
I'm working on a project in Belgium and I'd like for you to join us on it. How can I contact you?
man that is perfect i want to buy something like that please how can i contact you for more information
this needs to be called Sumo Scooter. Frankly, Im flabbergasted those hoverboard motors got it going. Great job tho.
The frame gets a 10/10 for style and uniqueness. Even before you put the lighting the doubled up c channel frame look finished and would be a ride that people would have stared at. The lighted up frame looks great but for me I like it open and unlit. Great Job!
Looks industrially beautiful. 🙂👍
Oh yes! that's some cool lighting setup there, great job!
Very inspiring 👏
Awesome!!
Awesome but make it waterproof for ur safety bro for the battery cover, awesome build ❤
I just stumbled across your video and this is a very nice build .You should be proud of it and I wish I had one.
Super robota brawo...
I wish I have this one on my birthday.
Great job. A lot of work and a construction in perfection.
Always a pleasure to watch your vids. High-end-craftsmanship at its best. Regards and greetings !!
Thanks for your support👍
I Love it😊
Goed gedaan Hen! Ziet er cool uit!
That looks so cool i wish i cud afford to have a scooter
Good
i really love the lights ..... i would have made the lights crazy and stuff ..... the design looks ok not stand out but ok ..... i like it
Wauw weer een megacool project 👍👍
Good Job!
another beast level making.
i want to request you that make a minimal and clean e bike with high power
you can use custom body.
but it should minimallist
Would be very cool if you swapped out those led strips for rgb and a sp107 controller
Cool.
Mooi ding Hendrik! Ik denk dat er geen hooverboard meer te vinden is in België!🤣
How do you pair the hub motors and dual them correctly, as they would need to be precisely aligned
Ooo Mercedes 129 😍
Hi! Excellent video, thank you! Could you tell me what the outside diameter of the hoverboard motors are at the edges of the rims, and the main body of the motor in case I need to grind off the motors' rims. Thanks again!
Molt bon treball i vídeo per mostrar-ho.
Penso que li faria falta un bon llum per enfocar per davant a la nit i sobretot el casc has de posar-t'ho per fer ús del patinet, la seguretat abans que tot.
Genial.
very good 💯💯💯💯💯💯👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
I am thinking that little cover for back wheel are needed and saddle for comfort.
Хорошая идея скрутить два колеса таким образом.
So many lights - and you don't see where you're driving ... :-)
Very cool scooter! And perfect craftsmanship!
I'd like to see it accelerating and being driven without background music.
Are the motors strong enough?
looks cool but you should have made a wheel cover for the back wheel
This looks sooo good!! I was wondering if you perhaps remember what material, finish, thickness and type of C-channel you used for the frame. Cheers!
Its 30mm x 30mm, 2mm wall thickness
Good job , i want know the daimeter of wheel (size)and hub motor how much watt
🔝 🔥🔥🔥
굿 👍 ❤️
🙂👍🏾 You did a Great job on Your DIY Electric Scooter. Lights and Everything, You Should add Some Turning Lights and maybe Some Velcro to Stand On. Also You Could add Some Mirrors to See what's Behind You. But Other than That It's Awesome. 👍🏾 I Work with Different Types of Metals too, But It's Not my Shop or Material. ☺ 🙏🏾✌🏾🛴🛴🛴🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏾
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do freelance custom builds?
great job !!!! just one question how do you configure 2motors to run synchronously with only 1 throttle ?
You connect 1 throttle to 2 motor controllers, just splice the wires. Works perfectly.
Thanks !
Are those 5730 SMD led strips you are using?
2835 strips with 480 leds per meter, cold white
КАКАЯ МАХ.. RM\H ???
hi man! super project! But why 2 motors on 1 controller? they can't work stable this way.... when the motors are out of phase, they can jam, which will lead to disastrous consequences. excuse me for my english
Hello, i guess it's not really clear in te video but I use 2 controllers. As you say, 2 motors on the same controller does not work very well😏
@@hennybutabi huray. You are welcome from Russia
Weer een leuk project. Hoe heb je de remschijf op het achterwiel bevestigd? Buur uit Boortmeerbeek 😉
Die zit met een 3d geprinte spacer gevezen op het motordeksel. Vergeten camera op te zetten toen ik dat gemonteerd heb 😏. Kleine wereld👍
@@hennybutabi ik vermoedde zoiets. Sterk genoeg? In pla?
Mocht je ooit iets gelasercut nodig hebben, weet je me wel te vinden.
@@wimleo71 jep in PLA wel 80pct infill. Heb die methode al toegepast op andere steps en nooit problemen mee gehad. En thanks good to know😏
Idd. Pla is soms sterker dan gedacht… alleen in de zon durft het wel eens te vervormen.
Is it possible to use 48v controller for my 36v hoverboard?
sure bro, i did
Yes!
Big
Did you say somewhere in your videos that there is a downloadable STL file for the centering tube, or am I dreaming?
You are dreaming😏. But it's easy to make, just use the diameter of the motor as inner diameter and the diameter of the wheel as outer.
Better not rain.
Q péqueñas llantas 😂😂😂 no se te vallan a romper
Bro, how many inches are the wheels?
Tire size is 18 x 9.5 - 8
sinister Project
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 ❤🧡💛💚💛🧡❤👍👍👍👍👍
More scuter
Fancy helmet! Must have cost a lot!
😂 up up up up at ip to the time no joke up 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
It looks like he did it just for the sake of illumination.
This scooter can only be ridden on clean and dry roads!!!
Since I live in a city, that is all I have unfortunately
Too low with bad ground clearance are not definitely safe and but if you made bit higher ground cleance then be perfectly ridable without hitting or scrappy with liw ground clearance are bad luck
There is no shock resistance and no non slippery mat to stand on while driving...
with the low power output he wont really need it
please translate from Russian, самокат то хорош. Но на говняных компонентах, сделать деку шире, а заднюю часть рамы, сузить. И заднюю часть подсветки пустить на поворотники. Моторы говно. Контроллер говно. Батареи говно. Рама класс. Моторы тратят много энергии на раскручивание таких колес. Провода слабые. Или сгорит или быстро выйдет из строя.
Всем спасибо я кончил =)
Lol spicy
Big oof about riding without a helmet and with legs next to each other
Hey! I really love your content, great original idea! Is there any way to contact you in private? I can't find your socials anywhere!
Hey thanks for your support. You can send me a message on instagram, look for hennybutabi.
looks like in tyhe rain that would be slippery as fu*k to stand on! get some grip on there!
а как ты мотор поставил !!!???...там же болтами всю обмотку поцарапает и порвет !!!
There is enough room, the bolts do not touch the windings
