BoostedBoard Killer - Pryside eBoard

thingiverse

This is my latest creation, a super lightweight yet incredibly powerful electric longboard. Almost everything on this board has been 3D printed. You can check out the project video here: https://youtu.be/C8n8ceZM9qY. Note that while you can print many of the components, they may not provide the best ride quality. A bamboo deck and metal trucks with motor mounts are necessary for a great riding experience. I've included all the 3D printed files in this project, from motor guards to Vesc and battery casings, even the gears used, which are a modified version of these: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2093191. Special thanks go out to JuniorPotato93 for his great work on the retainer needed to fit my gears on a flywheel/mbs all terrain or any flywheel clone. Tips: Don't anneal the battery case or anything else, as it will warp and become unusable. I've included my warped CAD files in case you need them, but don't do it - the normal version fits perfectly on the concave of the Loaded Vanguard. PLA parts are already hard enough to require no additional treatment. Lay down a rubber layer underneath the cells themselves so they don't move around inside. Make sure everything is secured and doesn't vibrate excessively when welding a battery, or the nickel will snap due to vibrations. Use hot glue (black hot glue) to fix the top cover to the battery, but make sure there's no stress on it before gluing it in place. For M5 screws, use the largest washer you can find, such as an M5 DIN 330R 18mm washer. And definitely use a rubber washer underneath that so the metal doesn't cut into the plastic. Print the battery case from top to bottom, with the printed lines running along the stress lines for added durability. The Vesc case can be printed on its back (like when the board is lying flat).
