I Built An Electric Monowheel From Scratch

Even if, previously, we have made a monowheel with an internal combustion engine, which offered us great and fun times, we thought that may be we should also add in our collection its electrical version. Please enjoy the process of making this electric monowheel and share your thoughts.

[@MakeitExtreme]

This was a brilliant fun project, we were amazed about the acceleration of the electric monowheel. Have you checked our original monowheel? bit.ly/3xNePQA Thanks for watching and take a look at our Make It Extreme T-shirts bit.ly/3zwmumM

[@JohnSmallgeese-jl2jj]

That seems like Old school stuff This is the the 22 century Where's the new high tech Stuff

[@tecnocato]

It's a super cool project, but you’ll regret not wearing respirators while spraying later. The damage to your lungs will be irreversible. Take care. Cheers.

[@Kinann]

Needs back EMF sensing to improve stability so it can apply torque when it dives. When you back off the motor and your weight shifts forward, the motor will generate voltage (instead of consume it), this can be sensed and motor torque applied to counter it.

[@user-wu2vp8lz1n]

Podia fazer alguma coisa útil...

[@opendstudio7141]

Needs gyroscopic steering. You could do some pretty impossible tricks with a high speed gyroscope.

[@ezzathawash2475]

Watch the video about the single rail train concept from the past and see how they overcame the balance issue using opposing gyros.

[@RumyanyiBok]

​@@ezzathawash2475 подскажите пожалуйста, что за видео? По каким тегам искать?

[@itzikca]

At first i thought it was a reupload but its not and the implementation is fascinating

[@savage6394]

I cannot even imagine how big this channel would be if you guys would explain what and why you are doing as you worked through each project. Even if each build were a couple episodes long. I can't be the only person that feels like there's someone behind the scenes drawing projects up then handing a set of plans off to the builders. Then they just bang through each item.

[@kastenolsen9577]

If you can not understand what is being done by the procedures on videos like this one, you are NOT mechanically inclined enough.

[@EbenEliasjr]

I agree

[@flyingmonkey3822]

Wellllllll maybe they just have done stuff like this so long that they’ve built up the shop/knowledge that they only need an idea and then cook from there… but yes please explain the technical parts anyway!

[@Skylar_minecraft]

also, for some people, they would like to understand the concepts and principles at work, so they can fully understand the build.

[@gizward_gmr5681]

Lol... That skit at the beginning embodies the Hoverboard user mindset

[@ScionStorm1]

I'm gonna need you to attach a Duel Disk and dress up as Jack Atlas.

[@HankuDVlogs]

And also they need make the yusei's D-Runner for duel

[@xjam99]

Yes! A 5ds reference.

[@choconillacheesecake8664]

This man over here bring Yugioh 5Ds to life.

[@Error_UsernameUnavailable]

Lol

[@Azrael2294]

I'd love to have Yusei's cycle

[@resdifer7744]

jack atlas would be proud

[@n3r0bi0m4n]

South Park memories..

[@MakeitExtreme]

😆

[@LuffLuff3737]

🥰🥰🥰🤌🏽

[@richo13]

It took me 14:58 to get this reference haha

[@Florian24]

Should i call you mister?

[@williamwalls9768]

HAAAAA!!!!!!

[@merlinmagnus873]

Nice implementation of a classic design.

[@MorningbirdSpace]

I watched mesmerized through the entire video as you demonstrated your skill. Great work.

[@seymouralcolaya9116]

😁 Holy crap you're really the greatest - thanks for 149 great projects. Please continue making such greatr stuff - I can't wait to see the comming 149 things you do on this channel!

[@tommy.dee1]

Cameraman is really talented.

[@terminalpsychosis8022]

Amazing that thing goes so well just with some "hoverboard" motors. Perpetual wheelie FTW. Even a kickstand. Nice design.

[@wintermute_2501]

Since you're using your feet to balance, you should try those shoes with the wheel protruding from the bottom of the heel. They'd give you amazing control around corners, and you can still put your feet on the pegs when you're cruising on a straightaway.

[@Skylar_minecraft]

i was think about those shoes as soon as i saw the end bit, lol. would be a great addition, even if it takes away from the whole MONO-wheel thing

[@CorbinSupak-nj3tj]

this is like an A-Team episode where the ‘build montage’ scene lasts 25 minutes, holy smokes never seen anyone do all this before

[@user-pc8ze6cn7x]

Тебе бы терпения ты в помойке инета найдёшь много для себя нового а апорат старый придуман и обкатан в СССР ты верно и незнаеш что за страна дружок!

[@MrAnas1371]

You already made it extreme , Impressive 🌟

[@hunting_scent_czodiatis]

Πραγματικά κάθε φορά ξεπερνάτε τον εαυτό σας. Η δημιουργκότητα στις κατασκευές, η κινηματογράφιση και το μικρό αστείο σενάριο στο τέλος δεν παίζονται!! Συγχαρητήρια για οτι εχετε κάνει αλλα και για ότι έπεται στο μέλλον.

[@DerekFromMalden]

Always love seeing what you create!! Great Job.

[@blackkissi]

is the scooter at the end a teaser for video #150 perhaps

[@MakeitExtreme]

it could be..... :)

[@cllllllllll]

this is the best thing i have seen built in years. amazing.

[@SekAustria]

awesome build as always

[@QuarthDoesThings]

General Grievous wants his ride back lmao Love this build

[@crazymtbrider]

How many times did you stand back looking and laughing at what you created this time I'd say the monotrack was cooler but this is still a wicked build and well executed - get some skid plates on your feet and get the sparks flying 😂

[@taraksias2965]

Amazing work... another epic monowheel powered with batteries.... very detailed job and very nice video editor :))) your team is awesome my friend ❤

[@DirtyDovi]

Kerry McLean would be proud of ya! [He's the inventor/builder of the McLean Monocycle] I've seen so many styles of these over the decades, and they just keep getting cooler.. Kerry went w/ Huge combustion engines, so had to incorporate a tail rudder/wing combo for added stabilization.. NOW, we can just jam 'self balancing' PCBs to the mix, and that would nix the for/aft tilt [just think of a Huge EUC (E Unicycle) ] I saw that people beat me to the South Park joke.. But gotta' do it anyway: Your Seat looks a whole lot more comfortable! 🤣

[@tuomassaarinen]

Good thing is that it doesn't have original Mr.Garrison steering. Looks amazing. Great build.

[@tempestflare4339]

Steamboy and the Men in Black would be proud of you

[@kensteffes6712]

Amazing build skills. It's all about the tools!

[@xXNovavoidXx]

Amazing cinematography

[@TheCebulon]

Absolutely amazing. There is some room for improvement: by programming the controller and having some sensors, the back and forth wobbling could probably eliminated.

[@michellesoltau7143]

Thanks for sharing. This was impressive to watch.

[@MakeitExtreme]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ОлегГриднев]

Красавчик! Руки на месте! 🤘

[@tattooeddragon]

Great design! Now all you need is to add a gyroscope to make it stable.

[@ElEnanoAr]

I love the monowheel. Maybe you could make a "floating" internal frame for the handbar, battery and seat while the motor keeps in the "fixed" frame. I think that if you do that your body will stay in the same place when you accelerate or brake. Maybe I'm wrong, but it's something I can't keep out of my mind.

[@dimitri282]

very good job 👍👍

[@HP_rep_mek]

Cool build, extremely nice!

[@joaosalomao4968]

Nice project! Beautiful location!

[@boomfiziks]

I remember seeing a concept vehicle that was essentially 2 of these mono wheels attached to one another, so that they were beside each other. The tops were tilted inward (bottoms were flared outward). The seat/driver was in between the 2 giant wheels.

[@abo1428]

24:19 „Dude look at the men on his … circle thing driving at the car park … he looks really suspicious“ „Naaah bro, just a Monowheel like every other“

[@NathanNostaw]

What a fun and great looking machine. I've always wanted to try one. I bet they take a bit of a learning curve. You guys make it look easy though. I bet heavy braking is scary and dodgy. :) That scooter at the end was clearly abandoned and in need of recycling or repurposing. ;)

[@Skylar_minecraft]

now you just need to make a pedal powered one! seriously though, amazing build, and the idea of a pedal one just seems like an interesting thing to make, with all of it's own challenges

[@MakeitExtreme]

That would be cool!

[@vincentbrandt2475]

Nice work guys 😍

[@meetalg]

Incredible project!!! 🎉🎉🎉 Silly ending 😂

[@pious.techpriest]

If anyone ever had a chance to actually make one of these things work, its this guy right here!

[@lochmarFiendhiem]

My favourite part is having to buy a new pair of shoes every time you take it for a ride.

[@mj97i3]

Lmao facts

[@janetstarlet2800]

It looks like fun .. and was fun to watch in fast mode Thankies lots 💖 Jane

[@Schlabbermampf]

riding this looks so fun, and well deserved!

[@foxwhiskey]

Great job, mindblowing construction. Congrats and greetings ! 😊

[@MakeitExtreme]

Thank you so much 😀

[@wizardseven]

2 minutes in and I'm already impressed by the editing

[@serversurfer6169]

9:58 Hey! That's the guy!! 😮

[@carpediemarts705]

I was 5 minutes into this before I even noticed it was Make it Extreme WHERE YOU BEEN?

[@siyabongamsweli8391]

This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen

[@MCsCreations]

Fantastic work, guys! That's crazy... The way I like it! 😂 Stay safe there with your families! 🖖😊

[@frogola57]

That's the most control I've seen from one of those. great job

[@MakeitExtreme]

Thanks!

[@BalkanHandyman]

I like new way of edit your video. Also idea is very good

[@AndrewJohnson-oy8oj]

I've got to admit, I'm kind of addicted to this making videos.

[@Voevoden]

Looks like a pro made it, and it was!

[@FarmerFpv]

That is epic! You need to make an RC airplane next. lol Use aluminum soda cans for lightweight skin for the plane.

[@Austin-jp9pi]

Amazing, thanks 😊

[@Blackbear_ROK]

Awesome Electric Monowheel !!

[@karlm9584]

Ive often thought about a control system to help with the pitching up and down while accelerating and braking. An accelerometer gyro.

[@bigbadwolf4190]

If the monowheel design and technology was improved, it would be so much easier to park than a normal bike, in my opinion

[@jeffnielson6158]

It sure beats dealing with the TSA!

[@smeesmirgol8377]

ok, i love it. but how safe is it to use in regards to breaking and accelerating? how agile is it in normal day use?

[@kennethevans4056]

Keep driver settings at zero gage,balance the pitch and yaw with short burst on the center stall between 80 and 100 psi

[@rolfoelmeyer7430]

Cooles Video ich weiß zwar wie das Fahrzeug funktioniert aber ich habe noch nie gesehen wie so ein Ding gebaut wurde.😂👍👍👍👍

[@JamesKing-jw6hs]

Invoking my imagination, cool stuff🎉

[@Tom-Hsn]

21:36 Le mec s'autorise même de faire des wheeling, la classe! 😁

[@rajeshshankarsrivastava8127]

It is really extreme. Congrats.

[@ridethroughlifertl]

It's been do before, but I'd love to see these guys build a 2WD hydrostatic motorcycle. And like a full hour of riding footage, running over things, through mud and rocks and sand and everything else.

[@murraystrand]

Great job!!!

[@DanKoning777]

You never cease to amaze me. 👍👍👍

[@volaaz]

Awesome, you are mad mad guys ❤

[@SuperOppapa]

Nice storyline

[@vinceianni4026]

Good job mister beautifully done

[@leandrorojo7508]

Imagine merge this with Arduino and add an autobalancing system to avoid unwanted movements when you brake

[@MrThacke]

Fine build. Mine will have a solar panel cab and a drink pump.

[@ConnorHolland]

Great work!

[@MakeitExtreme]

Thanks!

[@chrisg7938]

A quand la course entre les deux motorisations ? 🤔 😂

[@Spiker985Studios]

Every time I see Delrin being cut, it just looks like it'd be so beautiful to machine

[@billymanilli]

What if you get hauling and then lock up the brake? Is that not as fun as it sounds?

[@stephanmuther3301]

Great Job!!!

[@floppzyy]

You could of used weights to bring the centre of mass further forward, or make the seating position like a tron bike

[@IVAN_ENT]

Nice job , have me thinking though ,wonder could you make some sort of small simple sort of wing mirror esque fold out periscope to Try make it so you don't have to look around the wheel when driving and have no blind spot

[@Timothy271279]

Who needs brakes when you got sneakers 😂😂

[@codypeterson3074]

I mean he does alright with shoes but I would wonder if using like roller blades or designing something else if roller blades wouldn't be ideal. I would think that would allow for higher speeds while also providing more control and maneuverability?

[@dust-7software]

Dude literally built one of my dream vehicles (cyclone from borderlands 3)

[@megagreatgodlywhiteshark2929]

Borderlands 3 has awesome monowheeled bikes hope ya can create more unique vehicles plz?!

[@johnsmithe4656]

It's the Grievous Mobile! And it works!

[@chefboyrdvr]

Bro just said one day. "You know what I'm making a monowheel."

[@MrPolycount]

So sick. The world needs people like you to push the world forward and try things.

[@cliffordhicken5766]

what the diameter of the inner wheel?

[@CRAFT7445]

What's the suspension like?

[@Jeanbond2990]

Pour les freinage d'urgence, on fait comment ?

[@MarcusDIY]

Guys, this is amazing project from the most beautiful country in the world.

[@michaelrtreat]

Great tools!

[@pratek3d]

Really coooool.... But braking will be tricky and quite dangerous...

[@DrPC]

muy buena construccion, le falto un detalle, las rueditas para las zapatillas, abrazos. saludos desde Argentina.

[@vasilikimavrou8190]

Amazing 👏 🙀

[@64Pete]

Nice work! Looking forward to project #150! ✌ 🇦🇺
