Electric Skateboard Wiiceiver Wireless Nunchuck Instructions
- Y-axis (up/down) is used for acceleration control. It is very similar to the standard RC transmitters.
- Up/Forward is used to control acceleration speed.
- Neutral is used to coast and/or slow down.
- Down is used for electrical brakes.
- X/Y joystick axes, X/Y/Z accelerometers, and the two buttons are monitored to confirm that the nunchuck is "active" -- as opposed to dropped or low battery. When "inactive" the wiiceiver returns to neutral, and will not re-start until it detects and active neutral signal.
- C button is "cruise control" -- press and hold C to maintain the current throttle level. Drop the joystick to neutral to cruise. While holding C, pressing the joystick "up" will increase speed gently, "down" will decrease speed. Releasing C returns to neutral.
- If within 5 seconds, you hit the C (cruise control button) it will resume speed of the last set cruise control speed gradually.
- Control smoothing: Wiiceiver implemenets an exponential algorithm to smooth the controller input. As currently tuned, an instant 0-100% throttle input will result in a gradual change to the ESC over the course of about 1s.
- It is possible for the Wiiceiver to be affected by electrical and bluetooth interference. You assume the risk of the Wiiceiver not responding at any moment due to your riding environment. We recommend that you do know how to stop by traditional longboard/skateboarding means before trying to use this as your electric skateboard controller.
- A skateboard is a dangerous device and is even more dangerous with a motor attached to it. Be safe and always wear a helmet. You risk the chance of being minorly injured or even outrageously injured by improper use of an electric skateboard. Use your due diligence and make the correct choices.
- Do not use this as an electric skateboard handheld controller. This is only provided as educational knowledge.
The Wiiceiver on the left comes pre-programmed with the latest firmware and is plug and play.
The Ferrite Ring on the right is used as a filter to help prevent RF interference. It is recommended to keep this attached to your ESC signal wire.

This ferrite ring helps with interference with the signal wire to the Wiiceiver.

If the Nyko Kama plastic cover is too big. You can remove it and use heatshrink over it to protect it. The ESC Signal wire from your ESC Speed Controller can be plugged into one of the (2) 3 pin connectors. You can plug in either a single ESC Signal Wire and/or (2) ESC Single Wires to be controlled by the Wiiceiver.

Once the two are sync'ed together it will sync almost instantly.
Turning On Your Electric SkateboardOnce everything is plugged in properly based on the diagrams and images shown above. You can either turn on your the system power first and the Nyko Kama handheld second and/or vice versa. There is no specific way as they will sync either way.
Turn on your board, wait a few seconds for the power to get to the Wiiceiver then turn on your Nyko Kama handheld (Wii Nunchuck). You should see the green and red lights blinking on the Wiiceiver if it is visible.

Does this have the reverse function control? The description only said that down throttle is braking. Can it go reverse?
