63 MPH Electric Skateboard - Heath Lewis - Esk8 Top Speed - DIY Eskate

[@noblemantech6581]

Wow. You're killing it, keep pushing bro.

[@sdb3039]

Awesome, you're killing it

[@wiggpickle]

Thank you!

[@artwaresk8electricskateboa575]

Looked like you were on rails...Super stable.

[@wiggpickle]

Thank you. That's what I'm going for!

[@djbwellz]

That’s wild!!

[@leyo300]

Nice video! Can you make a vid about the board and explane the build and what parts you use and so on. I want to build my owner board and want somthing crazy like what you are riding.

[@wiggpickle]

Thank you. There's a lot of interest around me making a build video, but I don't think I'm going to do it. It has taken 2.5 years, many injuries, and a good bit of money trying to get to these speeds. A build video would have too many casuals trying to reach deadly speeds. That would end up with a lot of deaths and quick regulation of these things. What I tell most people to do is get a premium board (Lacroix, Kaly, Bioboard, etc.) And start from there. Those boards are capable of more than enough stock.

[@unodospizza]

@@wiggpickle most parts are obvious like the FLUX AT2 DIY kit Deck+Hypertrucks and Hyperrims....? But maybe you'd be so kind though to tell us what type of Bushings, Celltype and Motor you are using on this Board?? Just a rough outline of youre specs would be AMAZING!

[@68at97]

@@unodospizza i know hes using 63100 motors, producer doesnt matter most are just resold under a different brand, and probably molicel m50, not really any other batteries i could think of him using

[@wiggpickle]

Flux deck and enclosure, 20s6 p42a, Spintend Ubox, Bioboard 63100, hypertrucks, Xcell wheels. Bushings are stock green and white.

[@unodospizza]

@@wiggpickle Thank you very much! It’s a pleasure consuming your content!

[@WorldwideDarts]

If I had a really stable board I could see myself getting up to 35-38mph range if I had the right safety equipment. Easier to type that out instead of doing it though. My highest recorded speed on GPS is 32.2mph. This is on some other universe of skill and bravery.

[@captnshrms]

Damn, you are just cruising at 50+ now 😍 I'm going to have to upgrade my ranger if I want to ride with you now 😂 62 mph is about all it's good for, and I'm about to gear it down to around 45-50. I need a new controller with field weakening so I can push a higher top speed and keep the lower gearing. Can't wait to see the video.

[@hairymanjack6767]

I wouldn't recommend field weakening on esk8 for the fact that if the esc were to fail it would feel like it would be slamming on the brakes. It can make sense for an ebike as if the motor were to suddenly brake you'd just skid and still be able to control for the most part. I'd just recommend going the conventional ways of more speed or torque (gearing or voltage/amperage).

[@captnshrms]

@@hairymanjack6767 yeah, mine is a standing scooter/ebike thing (kuberg ranger) but I forget how reliable you esk8 guys need their electrical systems. Having handlebars makes cutouts and stalls, even a full rear wheel lockup, pretty easy to handle. It's ridiculous that Heath is even able to keep up on a board 😂

[@joshww5110]

Sick man you should sell builds like that. I’m not a DIY electronics guy but there’s a stretch of road nearby me I can’t ever touch because there’s 50 mph cars….there’s a 45mph road branching off that has this crazy steep hill I’m not sure any standard bought eskate could climb or brake on-cars struggle up or down it, my own car struggles up it for sure as well Fastest I’ve ever gone is 32 full throttle down a hill 😂 it was sketchy on my prebuilts but you looked smooth as butter at the 50 mark! Jealous!

[@MadDonJuan]

Insane, keep breaking the records brotha! What app you use for tracking performance?

[@wiggpickle]

That's an app called Freesk8 that is used with a device called Robogotchi. The Robo automatically logs data during rides that you can later review through the app.

[@kiddfpv]

That’s so sick! It’s crazy how the motor and esc still get that hot even with all the airflow. Are there anymore upgrades you’re planning to do?

[@wiggpickle]

Thank you! The esc actually has no airflow, as it is contained in the enclosure. I plan to add in internal fan at some point. I'm going to switch to 80100 motors soon and see how they hold up.

[@jpaulglobal]

How are you staying so stable at those speeds!? Must have the stiffest bushings available? How else? I must know!!!!!!

[@wiggpickle]

Downhill, uphill, doesn't matter. The board has the more than enough power for these speeds.

[@seankelly5318]

Do you ballance your wheels? It could help at high speeds. Those tire valves make a big difference with small wheels. Loving the vids Bro, breath taking!

[@wiggpickle]

8" tires going 63 mph. Balancing is required. Thanks for watching. I have a video of this full downhill run coming out tonight.

[@seankelly5318]

@@wiggpickle Good to know. I'll be watching.

[@lbrom516]

how did you add the speed and other stats to the video?

[@cpt.vollgas352]

Looks very stable, what for gear ratio and trucks you're running, mbs? 🤔

[@wiggpickle]

Very stable. 3.0 gear ratio, 20s battery, 8" tires. Using Lacroix Hypertrucks.

[@jennie-ot6dn]

Sweet

[@Princesssfairyfloss]

For the algo ❤️

[@Phoenix-tc6dp]

I don't really know what the numbers at the end mean but how long can the board go 60mph without overheating or running out of juice.

[@wiggpickle]

Not long. Thermally, it can maybe sustain 40mph.

[@TheEVside]

Damn!

[@user-jk9zr3sc5h]

Where did you get all of those stats?

[@wiggpickle]

The GPS data is recorded with the video. I plug that data into a program called Telemetry Overlay, extract it, and overlay.

[@goontheracoon]

Feel like all these super boards should have a second battery pack on the top, u can't drive far enough when going fast.. thats the only problem i got with mine.

[@wiggpickle]

How many wh?

[@goontheracoon]

@@wiggpickle around 1380.. if only someone made a board that also uses space between feets to stack even more cells. and yes,yes i know thats gonna be heavy😅. Although, my legs must be made of something different, cause i never get foot fatigue.. i hear alot of ppl talk about that when bringing up long joy rides🥱

[@wiggpickle]

I know a few guys running top mounted batteries. Good idea. In this video, the board was 1800wh and 2wd. It got around 45 miles to a charge. It's now 4wd, 2000wh, and gets 35 miles to a charge. Rapid acceleration, but having range anxiety again sucks.

[@MotoCrazeBat]

When your ready to retire that board, give me a shout.

[@wiggpickle]

Lol I've had about 20 people wanting me to build them one until the realize how much it would cost
