Simple DIY Electric Skateboard Drive Train *Propulsion Boards Mini RKP Drive Train Tutorial*

[@skfunk4550]

Very cool and easy for most people to either replace their one or get a new one built. Thanks for the video

[@DIYesk8Builders]

Thanks!

[@fujio001]

Oh yeah! I need this for my Boosted-style board project!

[@DIYesk8Builders]

It is perfect for that project! The next video is actually building a boosted style board with this drive train!

What’s the width of the trucks? Can the motor be positioned under the deck?

[@redsteam1]

WANT❤❤❤

[@brandonbennett9128]

Very cool. I think y’all should make a hub motor version too. I’d like to see some new technology in hub motors . I think if there’s anyone who could do it, it’d be yall 😁😢

[@DIYesk8Builders]

I think at this point we just love belt drives so much that we just stick with those. Hub motors can be awesome for specific applications though.

Is 3d printing the wheel pully better then the usual injection molded pully? Also do you plan to sell the stl file for the belt cover and the pullies for people who have their own printer?

[@DIYesk8Builders]

3D printing wheel pulleys can work but I have not had great success with them. The spokes tend to snap off pretty easily unless printed at very high infill - even then though they can break. The injection molded glass filled nylon pulleys are very strong in comparison. We will make the stl files for the belt cover files available to people that purchase the kit

[@RC-ij4je]

I’ve been using 3D printed PETG pulleys on a dual 6374 build for over a year now and they’re solid. It’s worth noting that I’ve printed them at 100% infill, otherwise I don’t think they would be strong enough. Also, the pulleys are bolted onto the wheel with 6 m5 bolts, because transferring the torque solely through the plastic spokes wouldn’t work.

6.5 HP? My man. Engines for bycicles produce about 2.3 HP. Guess I'll have to put some money in the piggy.

[@jamieniche]

Depends on vesc and battery.

[@hellcatmd7635]

I’m about to build a 60-40hp skateboard

[@wilsgrant]

Can the motors be mounted behind the deck or only under?

[@DIYesk8Builders]

Under the current options, yes only under the deck

[@wilsgrant]

@@DIYesk8Builders darn was hoping to use it with a double drop deck. Thanks

[@DIYesk8Builders]

Sorry about that!

[@Rishu44243]

Hey please can you give away for me please I cant fount these all to my country ❤❤❤❤❤

[@guitarwi3rdo]

Any chance for a tkp setup like this?

[@DIYesk8Builders]

Not on trucks this width, but we do have the TKP complete mechanical kit for extended trucks here: propulsionboards.com/products/tkp-complete-mechanical-kit
