I was on my way to the auto showroom to buy a Bugatti Chiron, but after seeing this video, I decided to go for this board.
Great vid - excellent workmanship!.
Love from Indonesia.
Sultan
I would like a video showing how you program the esc and everything.
We made a video here: th-cam.com/video/CMTnVz6FVq4/w-d-xo.html
You need LocTight whenever you use metal to metal screws and electric motors 👍👍👍
i cry when i wii loctite
Or at least a nylon or rubber washer.
Hey man thanks for using our WestCoastStandard battery enclosure! For your next one hit us up for a pack as well! We make them out of 40T cells so you get more output, more range and less sag then with 30q cells. Keep on shredding man!
Yeah we definitely will check those batteries out for the future. We love the enclosure, its amazing!
@@DIYesk8Builders Great to here it! Ya you gotta get on the new Battery rides, will give you crazy more range and power! We also got some new tech coming out later this year like trucks that'll be stable at 50mph! We'll hit you up when they arrive in!
Sounds amazing, we would be stoked to get our hands on any of those!
Hey how can I get your battery enclosure I didnt see it on your site.
@@vinnyf6635 Hit up our email at wcslongboards@gmail.com
Since you have a Dremel now, you should start cutting down the threads of the electric conduit fittings so the caps screw all the way down. It will create a cleaner look and have less sticking out to possibly catch on things. Your boards are nice. Thanks for sharing your builds.
Thanks! Yes, only thing is we do not use the conduit fittings anymore!
@@DIYesk8Builders what do you use now instead?
This thing is pretty cool, but can we see the top speed and acceleration test?
Yeah we will create a video for this
Bruh waste money
I was saying the same thing...about the speed test.
Hi,how much does this make a set ???
@@zinmayzumbaandaerobic6405 you’re never going to succeed in your TH-cam channel.
This is why Boosted is going out of business 😂😂
Lol
No, their going out of business because of these facts: they took $80 million in investor money, hired a new CEO who never skated and could barely stand on a skateboard and didn't understand his market, and invested the a large portion of the 80 million on electric scooter R&D...🤣
@@JT-xf9sw yeah, stick with what you know smh. Boosted trying to sell scooters was like trying to get a horse to swim. Yes, a horse can swim but it much rather run!!
@@delamar6199 I wouldn't be surprised if they stole some of those millions. Mark my words, watch a criminal case come out of this. Cant wait for the dirty money episode to air.
@@JT-xf9sw Dirty Money Episode. lol That's gold!
You ask for comment> I 'skateboarded'. (surfed , and such) .... (got older> ) I'm simply amazed! that a person can put together an electric skateboard. (We had to use our feet to propel same).... Also... (Have seen a few videos)//// Am curious? does any video show a 'goofy footer'.... riding a board like that. > I happen to have right foot forward on any board. ....skateboard, or surfing. If it was 500-600 dollars? (and, I lived where concrete and asphalt was all around me>) I'd get one! (for kids to use) Irregardless> It's a good idea. And, I wish you well. Am impressed w/idea.
I hope your skills have improoved in the past 2 years.
Clean build man! I'd suggest mounting the components, especially the battery, to the deck itself and then use the enclosure simply as a cover rather than to carry all the components. Kydex and ABS will eventually crack when carrying all that weight over many bumps in the road. Fiberglass enclosures do much better carrying weight, so mounting the battery to the board is not as much of a concern with fiberglass.
Yeah I have heard other people say the same thing, but it has never posed a problem for me and I have ridden 1,500 miles on my personal board. My concern is that the deck flexes and with the battery connected to the deck, so would the battery. The enclosure flexes too, but less so so it is a tradeoff I had to make
😍 you build my dream electric longboard 👏👏
its not what back to the future promised us but its still pretty cool
Slamming board😁👍......I dont think I even have the know how for that build, but fun to watch regardless. I have a $380.00 WOWGO KT electric skateboard which I still ride on the lowest setting.
Awesome build hats off! Anybody knocking on it is a hater.
Bravo, I just might buy one of these built already 🤗
So your bushings should be 2 duros harder in the kingpin closest to the board, and then your normal bushing weight at the first kingpin.
Checkout riptide APS bushings as they’re what people use for freeride and downhill skating, and they have a chart to tell you the duro you need
Best build from you by far
This is the only video with this backround music that's not garbage
Paul here from Michigan I really appreciate yourvi
How much is the coming in today board?
Thanks Paul :)
you are good builder i will change my scooter speed after1month and i will see what after👋🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Now this.... Is a beautiful handmade "Demon".
I've gotta say I've got a 36v 7amp charger for my massive 40ah battery so I can relate to the hungry beast.
Excellent tutorial and build, it's great to share step by step guides to everyone who feels intimidated by the details.
you guys are legends
My diy build I had my VESC drop voltage to my RX under wot forcing it into fail safe of "keep throttle open for 2 seconds" I flew for a good 15 feet. Ive got a different vesc than you but it might be worth checking. Id recommend laying down on the board with full gear to test it just in case it sticks. I fixed it by using a capacitor type SBEC ran direct off 12s.
Those motors are great, its got way more power than people think.
Great build video gang. Explains the entire construction process very clearly. Thank you for sharing guys.
Jesus those motors are chonks!
Well done. Ordered my first budget board. And I will soon be building my own faster, better quality board. Thank you very much for this video.
how did it go?
your contents is awesome, after i watching your video dats makes me to happy and want to have it, but in my country this things so expensive and only if u have a lots of money u can buy it, I enjoyed watching your videos, even though I can't buy those items, so keep it up I'll be waiting for more videos
for a cleaner look, carefully peel off the grip tape *before* drilling the threaded insert holes, then clean deck, apply spray adhesive and re-apply the grip tape
We were going to do this, but the grip tape was on so well that we decided it would not be worth it
@@DIYesk8Builders fair enough - admittedly this is easier to do on a top mount deck, (I've done it multiple times on my evo falcon - using baking paper to keep the grip tape tacky - no problems) but drop through grip tape cutouts are easy to rip!
Best build so far!!
... didnt see my board :D
Two recommendations about screw in nuts:
put some epoxy around them before screwing in to seal the up as they can be moisture ingress points and damage the deck.
You don't need to go all the way through. You can generally go from the other side and just go as far as you need, making it look even cleaner.
Thank you :)
Nice build, yup been there done that. If your looking for sub sonic speeds.Check out west Coast Standard's latest release. You can't go back after a "ride". Wcs " chamber trucks" are stable and wobble free to 40+mph. I haven't gone beyond it yet. I leave this to the kids. Hey! I'm 50+, my days are numbered. I test all the custom builds by psychotiller,personally. So I can personally speak on their behalf. The forged billet units use10mil. Axles. Not typical 8's. They're practically bulletproof. Look it up. The rest of the build looks solid...except... I ride pneumatic. Urethane is too harsh at extended rides to be fun. The 6x3 "six shooters, make all the difference. You lose distance. But gain vastly improved traction and road dampening. Especially, after30+mph. Saves knee joint aches and pain. Besides, it's just plain dope looking.
I haven't mentioned the "Project Zero" yet. Hmmmm.... Should I? (My new girlfriend, boys. Get your own!)
I'm going to wait. A new vid is forthcoming.
Awesome Boys;) Thanks for sharing, have fun :)
30 mile range wow 😲.
That turned out beautiful, good work!
Dude! Under glow!
SPEED is what its all about! love the review and info
Do one with haggyboard bergmeisters next :D
sick video guys, love these types of builds
Perfect boards guys.
Any other high speed trucks fit this build? Dbl KP trucks don't seem like the best for going 38mph!?!
Very good , fantastique thank you🎉🎉😮
Thank you!
ty for soooo much inspiration
Ill be getting this board now because its the same santa cruz that i had for 5 years before i snapped it in an accident bombing a bridge lol. Rip to my first board 😭
Wooooooooooo!!!!! DIY GOLD...
Sweet video bro good content and the video is well put together and executed
put the batterydisplay in the board! anyhow nice board i will copy alot =D
I built my own electric board did 44mph I’m 185lb I was getting about 28-30 miles of range riding hard (30-40mph) going easy (18-28mph) I could get something like 38-40 miles range all for under 1200 dollars 90mm wheels drop down santacruz deck super wide trucks battery so low speed bumps were too high to go over straight
I dont think the ESC should have stayed inside that heatshrink bag. i think that was to keep moisture and other things out while shipping. all thats gonna do is keep the heat in. i mean i could be wrong but that just seems so weird, if it really is that way id just coat the board in a special spray to help prevent moisture.
I have the same Santa Cruz longboard deck
Why do so many eboards go with double kingpin trucks? DH longboarders shudder at the sight of them and you'd get much more stability with RK trucks
Personally I find them more comfortable and they are also nice for carving. I don't find them unstable either, just use tighter bushings, but still you're right that RK trucks are more stable
Nice! Probably the best diy I've seen so far. Well done 👏👏
Please build an off-road electric skate board
please carry a Hobbywing esc for the hub and belt motors
We will look into it!
awesome video
Im in the process of building a pretty similar board with 12s5p, and the newer 170kv motors (3500 watts each), still haven't decided on the deck haha
Gonna be a beast
What about the evolve electric skateboard New zealand-made I'm pretty sure it says it goes 40-42 ks if you're lucky 40 definitely but that extra 2 can happen lol
Awesome build y’all
I like the way this camr out i was wondering if you a choice in off road wheels
Yes, off-road wheels can be used on this board. We have a gen 3 version out now
I need to buy
Very nice done
Bad ass i really want to build this board.
If you are interested you can visit our store: electric-skateboard-parts.myshopify.com or email us at propulsionboards@gmail.com and we can get you all the parts
Very very nice x
Have you checked battery and ESC temps after a hard ride? It doesn't look like it has adequate cooling for the components in the enclosure.
Do you have any tutorial of how you soldered the flipsky 6.6 plus or put the battery percentage connection back on? Great video and awesome build.
battery meter gos back on the reverse order of taking it off ,soldering is easy to learn and a lot of free vids on here that can show...best to grab some wire a solider gun and practice . as I told last person..knowledge is power.
Damn im thinking, you can connect the wires into a backpack that has the computers and batteries in so you can use a car battery or some shit
That would be bad ass.
the best i have ever seen
Well done, looks awesome
thanks!
Awesome build. Can’t wait to see your Demon 2 :) is unity better than flipsky 6.6 plus?
Thanks, we are excited to realize that video soon. They are both great ESC's and although I think most people today would go with a 6.6 plus I still really like the Unity
satisfied video
Beautiful but those conduit connectors got to go, they seam lower than the battery cover and you want as much clearance as possible.
Yeah we stopped using them
Flawless dude...exelent job...do the wheels comes ina diferent color and the board ina diferent paintings bcuz it looks sleak and fast and high tec.👍👍👍🤜🤛
Yeah it can come in whatever you want
Sick board, but mabye dont just pour glue in there if you are selling them, when the board needs fixing or replacing parts, thats going to be hell to remove
Awesome video! Do you happen to have the torque curves for the BLDC brushless motors?
Don't "tighten these trucks A lot". If you squish the bushings too much they fail to serve their purpose (think of them as springs)
Get harder bushings if you have to tighten the trucks where the bushings start to squish out to the sides more than a little tiny bit.
Went to westcoast standard to look at that enclosure and all they sell is complete boards. Also your link to the santa cruz board that goes to amazon lists it as a complete board.
Vinny F You have to contact them through Instagram
Vinny F Sadly that is the only place where we could find the deck. There is a place that does only sell the deck but it says out of stock: www.zumiez.com/santa-cruz-lion-god-40-longboard-deck.html
super informative. thanks for making the vid and sharing!
Looks awsome I’ve been looking around a lot I really want to do my own attempt with a hpi savage flux motor only issue is the board I want to do it to is a drop deck style and not a lot of room for it or for a battery so I would haft to run the same lipos I do on the savage any ideas or tips to help me out plz
Can you please do a review on the Verreal RS? Looks to be a great board at a great price and there simply aren't any reviews on it other than 1-2 smaller youtubers.. Thank you!
We will reach out to them and see if we can get a board to test out!
Why not use 6384 motors instead? Would be more power tho
They don't fit on the trucks, they would be too wide just barely
@@DIYesk8Builders but it would be kinda faster tho right?
6384 would be more power but still the same speed because they are the same KV. Motor size won't really impact speed, only power
@@DIYesk8Builders ohhh i see
@@TacEsk8 If you change the gearing you can use the more power to have more speed with same accleration as 6374
What is it like down hill? does the VESC have some kind of dynamic braking?
the remote can be used to brake and slow down the board. Brakes are regenerative
why did u use double-king-pin for that high speed? would normal king pin trucks not be more stable?
Yes skp would be more stable but we personally like the feeling of dkp more for carving. We also like the fact that they have the built in motor mounts as many caliber mounts come loose over time. We rarely actually go up to those high of speeds but the board is capable of it
Nice
Awesome work 🤙🏾
Unparalelled ❓
Bajaboard, ‼️
For price
I see a lot of esk8 companies using DKP, yet DKP is less stable at faster speeds and all of these boards go very fast. Why are the DKPs popular? Is it the extra height allowance for bottom enclosures?
It's because a lot of people like the feeling of dkp when carving and also it's a common truck, meaning it's easier to get manufactured
Thanks for uploading this vedio
I like this vedio very much
Hey I have an interesting dilemma. I have a boosted board v2 but I lost the remote and charger. I can’t find these for a reasonable price on the internet, are there any other remotes or chargers that would work?
Any help is extremely appreciated
Thanks
how did you connect the motors to the vesc because the vesc had no ports that the motor wires could be inserted to?
Soldered on 4mm bullet connectors and connected the sensor wire into the sensor wire port
Sorry one more thing can you put off road wheels on that board??
Yes you can!
Do u have the price of all the components weather they are from third party or from ur own sales ? .cos I want cheap budget and ones I started doing some research I always come across getting it done way more cheaper buy buying all the components my self . The only problem I would have is with software other than than looks anyone can build it just buy watching ur video.
Awesome build, I live just south of Portland and ordered the Ownboard carbon AT a week ago because of the rain . Now I’m second guessing that maybe I should’ve just built one!
Eh, DIY isn't necessarily the best option. You can easily mess up in the building process and spend more than you needed to and prebuilt customer support is nice too. The ownboard evolve clones are imo better with cloudwheels than AT wheels due to the turning behavior of dkp trucks, but rain riding is def limited on those wheels.
I just felt like the Ownboard was the best option, I imagine you could throw some Abec 107’s on as well for street.
Sad thing is I almost bought another hub motor cause they’re just so much cheaper with roughly the same specs. I chewed threw the PU on my last hub wheels though.
@@runningcolekong you could try buying abec 107s and evolve's wheel pulleys, this vid shows us the wheel pulley fits, but I'm not sure if ownboard's MOTOR pulley will fit with it. Performance-wise, smaller wheels AND an appropriately smaller gear ratio should increase both accel and top mph
Valid point... I’d assume if the clouds fit, there’s gotta be some 100mm wheel out there that can work
@@runningcolekong wouldn't recommend ownboard's cloudwheel pulley with smaller ABECs. Every company makes flywheel pulleys that don't fit every flywheel.
That is awesome!!! How well did the gasket for the plastic enclosure seal against the deck with the deck being convex and the enclosure being flat? With it being fastened to the deck you could take a heat gun and soften the enclosure enough that it'd probably form to the deck exceptionally well.
It actually sealed pretty well, I'm sure it would work even better with the heat gun
Straight Nas car magin if you brought dat wheel base in four inches make a sik f1 graphic on da frip
Got to be careful as the speed and range depend on your weight the wheels, terrain and battery life so take the specs of any board with a grain of salt
100% correct!
Wow, what a great build! Is it possible to have easily swappable batteries (instead of having to bust into the enclosure)?
Yes there is you could probably do that but at that time we weren't thinking about that and we would have wanted to find a great reliable option
Evolve is a great product. Buy EVOLVE! I get up to about 25 mph on my Evolve. Anything over 20 mph is a little sketch. Plus riding 30 miles would numb your legs and feet off. Buy EVOLVE! Top of the Line and ready to ride!! Boosted Board KILLER/E V O L V E
Here’s the thing ... you’re paying $2000 for a evolve that’s ESC is fucked up that it will lock its wheels and throw you off. Plus it’s slow. And only 15 miles of realistic range. Demon had capabilities of 35+mph top speed and 30 miles range with full unlocked power thanks to its VESC . For $1899
Can you use any coding system for the programming portion of this process?
VESC tool is what should be used
Have you guys ever thought about building a board with a battery that is easily swappable so that you wouldn't have to charge the board if it died, along with a remote with swappable battery? Something like the inboard m1 but better
Yeah a while ago we did but it never happened, maybe in the future
It doesn’t matter how you plug motor wires to the ESC?
it does not
“Unparalleled” xD
