Electric Longboard-Leather Edition

Tinkering project to build my own electric skateboard

Similar projects worth following
Electric skateboard built with custom 3D printed/Machined parts/leather parts, VESC, WiMote, Vanguard Deck.

Attempt 1 was with customer Arduino code/wiimote and a RC boat ESC. Forward was ok breaking.....Broken ESC. Moved to VESC

Attempt 2 loose wires around powered VESC.... shorted MCU

Attempt 3 1 Hot-air rework station, new MCU and some troubleshooting and it was good to go.

Currently the main issue is VESC is cutting out at full throttle. Have messed with current limits, voltage low limits, increased power caps still no solution. Next step is a VESC swap to see if that fixes the issue. TBD

    Started on a new controller to replace the NunChuck. Goals of controller below.

    1 . Rechargeable with level indicator

    2. Pull data from the VESC and feed to controller (Battery Life of Board)

    3. Slim up the form factor to fit in pocket better

    Currently going at it with HC-05 Modules and Arduino platform
