In this project video I will be showing you how I combined easy to get components in order to create a powerful electric motorized longboard. The main components I will be talking about are BLDC hub motors, the FSESC (aka VESC), a 2.4GHz remote controller and finally a custom made Li-Ion battery pack. This project might not be the cheapest, but the end result will be very awesome and thus worth it! Let's get started!

Just one request i have No matter how professional you get into video making, Please never change your intro
Thank you so much! I really wanted to make an electric longboard for the longest time! Now that I have a better understanding for the basics, I'll probably be down to give it a shot! Thanks!
This is the first time I have seen your face. I have always imagined you to be older 50+ your voice is calm, measured and soothing. I understand about 50% of what you present in your videos. But I watch almost every one. Because I feel like, what I don't understand is somehow implanted in my subconscious. With of your style of a methodical process coupled with testing and explanations, I feel as if I have learned something. And that I could also do this if I bothered to buy the components and do the builds. this is the stuff that I wish I could do if I wasn't to lazy. And you show me that I could if I wanted to (with study and practice) So thank you very much, BOODOO
I've been looking at DIY Esk8 for months. Your video motivated me to finaly build my own.
Finally! I thought I wouldn't make it without a new video, but you made it just in time.
This is the best timing! I was thinking about making my own, but i didn't think i had the expertise.
loved the new way of yours to talk to the audience. This helps us to connect beetter to you.
I love how didactic yours videos are! A lot of schematics n theory about the project itself. Great job!
Short, straightforward and interesting tutorial! Thanks 👏🏻👏🏻
Favorite open source project by far. Software, hardware, all great and thoughtful. Benjamin is prolific and the vesc is super useful.. I'm a long time fan.
Feels strange seeing that old board again. I remember watching that tutorial to build my own aswell. Thanks a lot for that video by the way, my board is working great and is exceeding expectations. Cheers.
I learn a lot from you. Thank you for loving the art!
I thought you were old with glasses and unable to smile, you’re definitely Great!
Thanks a lot for the update. Inspiring by your previous video I realized my own electric longboard one year ago, very fun to drive! P.S. Definitely like the new intro format!
dang didn't know it's been 3 years I'm watching your videos. this video was my favourite of all time
You have grown so much!! Wonderful content! I love your work
I am building an electric skateboard for my university project this year! Thank you for uploading this video it was very informative, as always I enjoy all videos and content! ☺

Now youre finally back with your videos
I just completed my own e-longboard a few days ago, and I too used orange filament for the enclosures :)
Yet another awesome video! I might have to save up to make one of these. I like how you are reusing stuff from past videos like the esc tester
Fantastic aerial shots! ❤️
Wonderful project. Thank you. Although it looks a bit more expensive than ready made ones, it is for sure a fun project.
Glad to see you again, Scott, the Great =P. I've really enjoyed this video, thank you for sharing.
I've no idea what's going on in any of these videos. But I do enjoy them. 😊
I really like the editing on this video. Really cool!
as always, great video with nice documentation
Your new format is very nice.
Love the new format!
As expected it was quite simple to understand long electric skate board electronic compare to your previous one. Hopefully I will make this thing by my own. "Let's get "started".
Hoping there's more and more youtuber like you, not just unboxing etc :P
Thanks for uploading video on my birthday🎂🎉🎁

I like the new format!
The LONG awaited video :)
I like the new style intro - GREAT 👍 SCOTT !!!

I haven't done any projects in a long time but this will be my next one.
This is the kind of stuff I just love. Fabricating and putting everything together...but I always get crazy with the wiring and make my own lengths and crimp on connectors. That's what slows me down with everything.
The best ever electronics teacher 😊😊
Damn that was a pretty cool project, im gonna try the cheaper motors and work my way up, cheerd
Amazing job as usual :) Thanks for having shared !
Amazing project again! A video idea: Can you probably do a project involving tubes someday? I'm really interested to see what are good (and safe) ways to create higher voltages (at which tubes often start working), so that you could use tubes in appliances that are powered by USB for example. Also I'm really interested in the ' old-book' series you told you were planning on doing :-) Thanks again for your awesome videos!
Hey Scott, it's the first time seeing you on video. Nice!!!
Cool shots man!
Awesome new intro! And just have to do something with that massive battery!
I'd love to do a 4 wheel drive system with these, very cool
Thank you for sharing so much information. I love this.
Awesome! I will see you next time.
What a monstrous battery is that
This is how you look!!, I have watched so many of your video and loved all of them...for some reason I thought you would be much older...lol
Finally!! Its back :) haha waited the whole time
Wow what a beautiful place
Nice, longboard making video I like the ESC and its configuration tool..pretty much controllable
Hello there you are a great inspiration and I am really happy to see new things .

NIcely done project! I like how you simplified the process to keep the vid @ ~10 minutes (which is about right) AND that you included more detailed info in your comments section for anyone that is interested in getting it! You rock, dude!!! Getting better with every vid!
I think you have the nicest writing and diagrams on the internet 😎
Awesome video! I would like to see you make a DIY controller for you’re house that controls lights, heat and air, and maybe even open your garage door with your phone.
remember when you tired to solder the motor bracket with a modified microwawe transformer on the old one, now the brushless motors wheel kit look better and won't move

Amazing vídeo editing , shooting and script. Stay creative!
love the video....very helpful and inspiring
Great things from great Scott
Great Video, GreatScott! ;)
you deserve more subscribers!!!!
9:40 Would have made more sense to install a heatsink over the MOSFETS, which would improve the cooling. EDIT: And install a mesh over the fan to keep road dirt/dust from getting inside.
@antipoti
11 ай бұрын
Also, the fan is overkill imo, a mesh on the front and back would be more than enough at 20-30kph.
Great. You are finally making appearance in videos
Great video you inspired me to build my electric mountainboard really liked the price of this ECS
Your English got better. Still a subscriber but appreciate the effort. !
Your voice is marvelous.
I came here to say that I clearly didn't expected Scott to be that good looking.
Great job done. I thought, it would be better idea to place box carring ESC along the moving axis because the moving wind will help fans to cool down the ESC.
be carefull with the fans holes water could get inside from there...
@jakegarrett8109

urugulu you just leave the ESC heatshrink exposed in a rectangle cutout at the bottom. Or they have watercooled ESCs popular in this size, so you could even mount an external radiator but honestly like 4 Oz of water in a reservoir will probably be enough anyways just to absorb heat since this thing has a super short range (6.5 km/30kph max speed= 13 minutes of runtime). Plus that means his average was 23 amps (so under 12 amps per motor), and that’s like a pitiful amount of power, like any cheap ESC can handle that and those are put in model airplanes with often 0 airflow enclosed in foam board... He won’t be getting those beast of ESCs very warm at all, even with 0 airflow and pedal to the metal!
Good to finally see your face mate! Great videos. Only thing is that when you refer to battery pack cell layout you keep saying "serious" instead of series (pronounced like "tv series"). Keep up the good work!
Good job on the new and different intro :)
I have to say that best lipsing award goes to you
I like the intro keep it that way !
Great video. Well presented.
