Electric Skateboard

This video is of an electric skateboard, with a monstor 800 watt electri motor, to get you up those big hills.



Video Description:
This is a remote-controlled electric skateboard I made for a school project. The purpose of the remote control was to provide the rider with a safe means of controlling the board's speed. Here are some of the other specs:

Top Speed (no rider): 22 mph Top Speed w/ 150lb rider: 15 mph Motor: 800W Power Supply: 3 x 12V rechargeable batteries Weight: 50 lbs Length: 3.2 ft Width: 12" Height: 9"

We found that the board could easily climb hills at a 30 degree angle, and could just barely climb a maximum of about 42 degrees.

  3. It was a nice video. I think we can't ignore what you did because it's all about good purposes with those electric skateboards.
