Electric skateboard motor mount - Caliber trucks

thingiverse

I designed this custom motor mount specifically for my electric longboard, and I highly recommend printing it using ABS or PLA mixed with carbon fiber (15-20%). The mount consists of three key components: a mounting plate, a locking ring, and a protective shield. I've also created an alternative version of the mounting plate without the shield. To prevent the motor mount from bending, I've incorporated two solid steel rods measuring 3mm by 80mm that slide into the mount's tip. You can read more about my custom motor mount on this electric skateboard forum: http://www.electric-skateboard.builders/t/the-orange-firefly-turnigy-sk3-6374-192kv-10s3p-25r-vesc-6-3d-printed-enclosure-motor-mount-custom-deck/21639/19 When assembling the mounting plate, make sure to add spacers between the motor bolts and the plastic mount. I manufactured some aluminum spacers on my CNC machine that fit perfectly, but a standard washer should also suffice. My setup features a 40T wheel pulley paired with a 15T motor pulley, and I'm using a 295mm HTD-5M belt.
