I'm not going to build such a scooter anytime soon, but I must confess, I'm really impressed by your skills! Impressive DIY project imo!

[@fr33ourminds]

HODYO Design I 2nd this. Well done

you can try this one...kzbin.info/www/bejne/foqagKCpq8qEa5I

[@arbusa_productions]

@@sagarevstore4524 We took the same parts for our mini Wheelie bike video :D

[@shaneellasdaicastrestorati3675]

That is the best DIY electric scooter build I've seen on KZbin great work.

[@greg23842384]

I did exactly the same project few months ago and scooter still going strong. I have overvolted this motor to 75 volts as i have found it was slow on hoverboard battery that is only 36volt nominal. Now it pulls like a horse and peak at 2000wats!!! You should make polyurethane tyre for back wheel as this solid rubber cause lots of rolling resistance and your motor will be hot after few miles. Mine after polyurethane mod runs cool and consume 50%less energy so its a mod worth doing

[@pxl666]

greg can u elaborate? Isn't easier to replace tire for pneumatic one ??

[@greg23842384]

Olga Piskorska you can't replace with pneumatic tyre as there is no space for tube valve you would have to drill thru hub motor and magnets and then motor stator would prevent wheel from spinning unless you would somehow mods this and route valve to come out on the side of motor. I basicly used polyurethane same material that skate wheels are made off. You can buy kit mix two part like resin and pour into mold and you get perfect low rolling resistance wheel. Please check my channel I have short video showing my scooter partially finished

[@robroberts2064]

You have quite a few videos. This one? kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5WrpqmBq8yIe6c

[@greg23842384]

Rob Roberts yes my friend

[@batlin]

Does the PU wheel wear down quickly though?

[@christopherroberts22]

I did a 350w conversion recently, I made the battery 250wh 7ah 2p10s Mj1 ... I split the pack and placed 4 batteries within each side hole of the chassis rail, as well as 12 batteries in the centre channel, there was also room in the centre channel for the controller ! I still have rear suspension too ! ;) I may copy your battery cover technique !

[@johnbeer4963]

Usually when i watch youtube videos, people's battery work scares me. I like yours. Nice work.

[@kaelking4470]

I love how easily everything was for you mine will take me for ever to build and look nothing as good as this one great job

[@stonedsavage7814]

that was so neat a build that if i never watched this video and saw a photo of the scooter i would 100% believe it was bought from a shop! thats a testiment to your build skills right there!

[@dcsensui]

Thanks for sharing this. I’m thinking of doing something with my granddaughter’s hoverboard.

[@itsmewoodG]

Great job, I love you attention to detail. I am currently doing a similar project, I am using a 10 inch hoverboard and using the motors, battery and charger to build an adult size trike.

[@Victor0000Pierosan]

Where is the brake?

[@19janiboy96]

You did a tremendously good job!

[@nazrilhood582]

Yup thx

[@777sgiles]

Please do a diy video on converting a knee scooter into a seated electric scooter. Please pretty please! I’ll bet you’ll go viral!

[@ferjanyen]

Nice work, With the hover board I will make a push unit to latch on the back of the scooter plus a steel cable to tilt the hover board to go forward or to stop. Cut and narrow the fibre glass stand on the hover board as it will not be needed. Presto!!

[@odduser1634]

Its a CLEAN DIY build, I have seen around.

[@sunnyhillestate1]

Great video! Very complete/detailed but not excessively long!

[@Akon12399]

Very impressed, I have a broken hoverboard just sitting around so I was gonna try and make something out of it, the only problem is that I lack some electronics knowledge. I would love to see you explain like what and why the electronics parts do, for instance that yellow connector, the different wires that stick out of that speed controller box.

[@S30Uploads]

I'm so glad I save like three of these things but only the motors

[@Adam_Tilbrook]

That's sick! Wish I could do that to my kick scooter but I don't have the skills necessary.

[@gameboyprototype5046]

Very clean nice work. Great that you chould use a broken hooverboard to make this C😎😎L project.

[@ojonfpv]

You look amazing, buddy. What a top design! Congratulations

[@andrewmarasek620]

awesome build. i mean, you could buy a xiami scooter for basically the same price and have an app and mod the controller, but i like the idea of learning. things like this i want to do with my kids as they get older so they can learn to figure things out on their own as adults. fun video to watch regardless.

[@acer1633]

I have never seen such an excellent job, I am impressed. truly. Genious!!

[@medvedev2008]

Красавчик, прямые руки, все очень аккуратно!

[@dvvvideo]

Ну мы тоже не плохо делаем kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5C8oGifadOFqqM

[@digable007]

You nailed it.... If you can point me in a direction of a Razor 300 type motor connected to a Yeddoo type scooter with a Shimano Alfine internal 11-speed hub with the electronic gearing. That should be your next project...that was freaking awesome...

[@Nenea2a]

Very nice work !!! I like your scouter!!! It would be great to have brakes. Brakes is important in crowded places. Maybe add breakes in another movie ;)

[@NicksStuff]

You clearly didn't hack that in two days, that's a well done project with a very impressive attention to detail. Not a fan of the position and (lack of) protection of the cells, though :-( Idea for a V2: use the second wheel as well and make it dual motor like a Tesla :-D

[@oneeyedrone4293]

Hover board scooters serve as great parts, im sure you could have made it a little faster and also since its so stealthy in shape, most people wont even know its electric. I have a kids razor like that, looks like a push scooter, I just loaded it with more batteries inside the frame, heavier but went from 10km range to 15km and less slowing down as it has more power within my 5-6km one way commute.

[@daisukevideo]

The video was great! In Japan, you can't easily ride an Electric scooters yet. The law is troublesome. I'm looking forward to the video! With love from Japan :)

[@srrtbb]

That's awesome man. But I was thinking why not mod the stock rear suspension to accept the hover board wheel?! Either way amazing job on the built.

[@christopherroberts22]

Because he would have not enough space for the battery & controller ! (unless he copied my technique ;) --- "" did a 350w conversion recently, I made the battery 250wh 7ah 2p10s Mj1 ...

[@olorb2618]

Nice job! I like that its RWD

[@gonsalomon]

You could get yourself a regenerative braking able controller. It would solve the braking issue while being able to charge your battery as well

[@thecreaturefpv9295]

Amazing video! Thank you for the detailed instructions. I am building one now and all I need to do is install the electronics and I will be on the road!

[@yohvh]

These videos are always exiting and fine until they casually take apart and put back together batteries or use things like welding.

[@PoweredByRedstonecom]

I was a bit worried about that at first, but he did it properly and safely.

[@speedsterh]

Excellent job, through and through. I can do all the steps you did, but not as cleanly as you ! Congratulations. In hindsighting, designing a covered place for the controller inside the brackt would have been the better option. Still, a great build

[@MCsCreations]

Really awesome work, dude. Really well done! 😀 BTW, I made a 10w LED flashlight inspired in your 100w one. I think it's going to be published in two weeks. 😊

[@davidpotter3777]

Mad skills! Build a simple car next. God bless , aloha

[@sriramayeshwanth9789]

A video I've looking since many months 🙏

[@fintelpen4225]

Impressive clean wirings.

[@ivorygilyard2243]

This was a very nice video, you did a great job and you explained everything really nicely. Thank you :)

[@us3r_d0e5nt_3x1st]

You're really smart, you made the best scooter on youtube!

[@protodudimanche5971]

*Cool la trotinette électrique moi j'ai fabriquer un chariot électrique avec 2 roues de hoverboard c'est puissant.*

[@ProjektHeld]

Wow not bad. I like your work! I build an electric longboard with hoverboard parts.

[@y2leon]

That bracket man, sweet...

[@peternicks4011]

You can add the second motor from the hoverboard on the back so you have more power

[@hrishikeshb]

This was an awesome build! Hope you enjoy the scooter :)

[@madyicstik]

can you post plans of the hub motor mounting bracket please?

[@KennethTanFotografie]

Fantastic build and excellently filmed.

[@N12Gautam]

I wish company’s could make as good as of a product as you did. I wish I could make my own

[@arnvidhr768]

Impressive! Just bottom of the e-scooter requires very descent protection as it will be damaged all the time... Especially bottom is low...

[@no1slisteninganyway]

Outstanding! A very nice piece of work.

[@cruselove]

nice 😁 next time buy a Dualtron escort that runs about 80 kmp 😎 i use that thing all over singapore. n love it.

[@floriank1152]

Hi I am again can you please a video or a plan show how everything is wired please because I would like to copy it

[@sarge27271]

My friend, kudos on 1) The build. And 2) The Editing!! Superb. Succinct. Awesome!!!! You should make a video on "video editing".....Lol

[@user-uy1hv1gx3v]

How do you charge the battery? Do you just connect thw battery power outlet to the original hoverboard adaptor(charger)? Is that safe?

[@nazrilhood582]

Just plug into wall

[@hellschatt]

Looks impressive and also absolutely dangerous, especially for someone who doesn't understand anything. I'll throw out the defective hoverboard lol

[@AlexNijv]

Impressive and clean build!

[@correaponce4251]

Hell of a job. Wow impressive.. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jamieogg3608]

Very professional work

[@daniellode3738]

What about the brakes?

[@madmodmaniac8275]

Brilliant job I just wish I was technically minded cause I'd luv to build one

[@88ElevenShop]

Great, excellent, wonderfull ! Thanks for your dedication!

This is awesome! Such a neat finish, looks factory made! Could the motor be used for seven braking? You wouldn't put much power back in the battery but might get significant resistance to slow the scooter more effectively than the original brake design!

[@indiandance5564]

I have the same controller and I am building a scooter with inspiration from your video. What should I connect to the throttle? The wires don't seem to match.

[@MrCopcreator]

Nice job, looks same as i did, but ur video is very detailed and looks more upgraded than mine version 🤗

[@cholito1949]

Congratulations !!! Very good work.

[@zaromaco]

Fantastic work my frend!! Best Regards from Spain!!!

[@charlievlachos5144]

Awesome project!!! Good job! Anyone know how to make the hoverboard motor brake?

[@Fridaynightmixtape]

Im very impressed. Thank you for the video.

[@TheHayes32]

Wow. That's awesome. Looks great.

[@UPLunko]

Very clean build!

[@lucianolizana446]

A larger rear wheel would be great

[@fletcher3913]

Very nice conversion. Good work.

[@anivarhain]

Really nice build

[@DiyEcoProjects]

Sweet build, well done

[@hp11208]

They sell a kit now for regular scooter right?

[@michalsosovec1722]

Impressive build and also video production. Keep up, Jehu. Thanx

[@JoaoSilva22222]

Man, you rock! I´ll follow your lesson and build one!

[@Tremor244]

You should've bought a speed controller with regenerative braking

[@alma-xu5bv]

On this motor controller you should have braking wires, check the user manual or ebay page ;)

[@khonable]

Great video...a little technical for your average joe, I'll just buy a kit tho.

[@Fpvcrewgr]

Very nice work !!! Good for you !!! I like your scouter!!!

[@willydingdong9971]

you should try making a second model with front and rear wheel drive.

[@charltonteo1735]

Really impress hope to see more electric scooter video

[@samayaraj7542]

Nice work. Excellent explanation

[@arbusa_productions]

Privet Bratan, have you tried to run it with 48v?

[@coqfier]

personally I would have repainted the control module of the scooter in black to keep this side low profile

[@brucechin6788]

can you do a DIY : electric skateboard conversion with scooter parts?

[@eungje7123]

I like your ideas but Have you ever think about shaking the front wheel? because of the valances, front wheel and back wheel when 60kg to 100kg ride on board to speed up it should be shaking front wheel. too heavy the backside. What are people evaluated?

[@mygt8a4re]

Very cool, nice work! I'm inspired to do a similar project now.

[@myehorov3320]

Not sure about life time of this build without dust and water protection. Big question is the price, it's not under 200 eur. Just hover board cost more than that, + throttle button, lcd, etc. There are some good options for about 350-400 eur, basically about same price. But if you have that all as a garbage and don't have to buy any of that parts, it's good and fun DIY project.

[@augustasbudnikas1267]

Just buy used, i found the same scooter for 60€, hoverboard for 70€, both fully functional, the controller is around 40€

[@johnny4498]

What a great built, the best for a long time for me:)

[@aragorn318]

wow, a genius with this stuff!!

[@oscarquintanilla]

A TEAM will hire you

[@dnagarjuna1610]

Simply superb

[@genadimarkov7543]

Good assembly i waiting my parts for this project. But I can not decide how to brake, any suggestions?

[@christopherroberts22]

EBS !!!! Very effective ! electronic braking system .. its like a thumb throttle , you apply an amount and the magnetic field in the motor holds the motor, resisting the rotation thus braking is applied.

[@TheronGBurrough]

Well done! Thanks for sharing your project.

[@backside511]

hi, i am making almost same scooter, but my scooter battery new (4400mA) hold power only for 3km any idea why? thank you

[@Tyler.i.81]

Your a clever guy wish I could make something like this.

[@skeelo69]

I am impressed , however why have you not included lights for the front and rear ?.

[@letmefindout81]

my respect to you sir, you are very creative.
