You are simply the best! Keep it up dude

Earra artista! Que conocimiento o estudios tienes para tal manejo de esc, motores, cables, baterias? Ademas de resinas, fibras,...? Mas que envidia sana!!! Un saludo

[@Jzampella]

Love it! Any chance you can provide a complete list of your parts including battery? Thank you for providing us this info!

the video description thks

@@virus_virus sweet! Any chance you can link the battery?

[@sadder9531]

please what is the final weight of the board without the motor

[@achrafriahi3906]

hello from Morocco I greet you for the great work. I'm looking forward to build my own hydrofoil surf but i didn't know the measures for the flanks, I'm trying to draw some on AUTODESK FUSION 360, my question is, can you share with us a model files. I'll be thankful if I got that, good courage.

[@Mak12368]

Hey what battery will you be using for this motor? Love the build. I’m from Australia

[@virus_virus]

I will use a lipo battery for this efoil, 32Ah 12s tattu lipo I love lipo technology but you can use 18650 cells, li ion pack and make a pack as you like

[@Mak12368]

virus thanks for that, looking forward to the future videos 💪

[@Mak12368]

Thanks man, found this really helpful. What is your thoughts on the maytech electric motor. Are they good. Are they quite. Are you also an affiliate for maytech? Thank you 🙏 💪

[@virus_virus]

If you watch all my videos, you can see that I tested a lot of propulsion systems, outrunner, inrunner rc, jet, and now these new fully waterproof direct drive motors, I think is the best option to build an efoil in this moment, recommended! you can check the noise in these videos kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3TZioqOds6jsJo kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHnSd4eKftuXkK8

[@Mak12368]

Thanks man, really appreciated. I was on the edge whether to buy this or not but now I feel confident that this will be perfect for me.

[@Mak12368]

One more question that would help me a lot. What volume does the surfboard need to be. Thanks

[@virus_virus]

It depends on your battery, but if you build a slim battery like my latest 2020 efoil battery you will need a low volume surfboard, check this link pls kzbin.info/www/bejne/f16soZ9rpbCDbNU

[@Mak12368]

virus thanks for that, I’m looking to build a slim lithium ion battery pack like yours but I’m overwhelmed with 3 things. Can you help me with these questions. 1: what type of surfboard should I buy 2:what volume should my board be? 3: where should I place the weigh of the battery. Should it be placed at the centre of gravity?

[@Mak12368]

virus thanks for the help man.

[@virus_virus]

​ MAK 1: you can use a surfboar or a race kitesurfboard, like these videos kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6LEg5l3etR-m9k check this type of surfboarrds I love this shape kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIaQZ2mjpLaYd9U maybe you can buy a cheaper like these boards in your country second hand cheaper boards 2: I always try to put all the electronics weight near of the nose as possible to get best balance with your weight, please watch my first prototype videos.kzbin.infoplaylists?disable_polymer=1

Hola, la resina que mas me gusta es Resoltech www.resoltech.com/en/products/epoxy.html pero actualmente uso una resina de mi región, la empresa se llama Gairesa. www.gairesa.com/productos/epoxis

@@virus_virus gracias x tu ayuda estoy fabricación un jetsurt tus videos me an ayudando mucho los e visto casi todos

[@fogacaa68]

qué amigo tan genial, ¿cuál es el modelo de este motor? ¿Es lo mismo que compartiste el enlace del video para mí? Lo encontré bastante grande, ¿pretendes hacer otro modelo de placa eléctrica? si tienes esta idea, será genial mostrar cómo ensamblarla, así que la analizaré para ensamblar la mía también. En promedio, ¿cuándo es total el gasto para hacer uno de este modelo? Veo que los fabricantes de este modelo de tablero se venden por más de 15 mil dólares, ¿ensamblan a su manera el proyecto que saldría al final? fuerte abrazo amigo aquí desde Brasil

[@virus_virus]

Bom dia, e o mesmo modelo de motor, este kit con ESC waterproof leva o receptor dentro do ESC tudo impermeable, motor impermeable tamen, un dos problemas maiores e a entrada de auga na prancha. Es una conversión de un foil de surf o race, no se en tu pais aqui en mi pais se pueden conseguir foils de race de segunda mano muy baratos y reconvertilos en un efoil, precio practicamente el de la electronica y algo de material , 1200 USD + bateria

[@davidloscos6442]

@@virus_virus Hola buenas tardes soy David he visto tus vídeos, y me ha gustado mucho, estaba pensando en hacer algo parecido.. Me gustaría tener una conversación telefónica si es posible, para hacerte unas preguntas y aclarar mis dudas sobre la idea prototipo ya que tú habrás tenido bastantes inconvenientes que serán mis dudas. Pásame tu teléfono a este correo y te llamo [e-mail] Saludos y gracias

Hello from switzerland ;) how much mor do you recomend your Maytech motor then the APS 70160? I alreade have the APS 70160 😣 shouls i build an go kard or a wake werench with it or do you think an e foil will work good with this motor? (i think i will use the Vesc 75/300)

[@virus_virus]

Hi friend, I had an good offer for that alienpower motor but I didnt test it, I think is a little worse construction but probably works good, I`m very happy with the maytech elecronics, nice synergy in all Maytech components and especially surfing, my favourite style!

[@CH-Kiteboarder]

@@virus_virus Yes, the 8085 motors i use in my e-Mountainboard are also not so good quality, i think i will swich to maytech maby.. PS: i lov to see the videos of your builds, your awsome! I am mor the aluminium guy and can weld realy good. i already build an surfboard prototype out of aluminium. But it is 8kg.. the next will be half of that. 😁

[@virus_virus]

@@CH-Kiteboarder Lo más importante es el peso más bajo en un sistema eléctrico, puede ver otros productos como drones y bicicletas eléctricas, e longboards. Pero respeto todas las decisiones y disfruto con todas las compilaciones de efoil, ¡gracias por seguirme
