Description

does anyone know a part number that can be used to upgrade the dc to dc converter? i have seen gerkon mention this in this thread: https://github.com/EFeru/hoverboard-firmware-hack-FOC/issues/87 . i am assuming he is referring to the part labeled RS3M but i havent been able to find a part listed as an upgrade for it on google. i have hit a max of 40 mph with a 14s lawnmower battery in sinusoidal mode, but am curious how high in voltage i can go before the motherboard blows. i would be upgrading the caps on it and i have spare parts when they fail.

What tires are you using? Solid or tube tires?

hbnewbie commented 1 year ago

theyre just cheap tires with tubes. i ended up deciding not to try any faster for safety reasons. it did have a fair amount of wobble at top speed and i didnt want to upgrade to more expensive/legit gokart parts.
