New DIY Electric Skateboard 50mm E-Power Sensored Motors 5065 170KV

DIY Electric Skateboard presents the E-Power Electric Skateboard Motors.

Checkout our new High Performance 50mm E-Power Electric Skateboard Motors! We've added a ton of great new features to our motors which make it less work when building your own high performance Electric Skateboard build. No longer do you need to buy RC Brushless Motors which are not made for our specific application of using them on a torque driven electric skateboard. Hobby store brushless motors do not come with extended motor shafts and/or keyways and flat spots built into the motor itself as their main intention for the motor was for RC airplanes. Our high performance 50mm E-Power Electric Skateboard motors are designed for your very own high performance Electric Skateboard build. No need to fidget with a dremmel or filer to carve your own keyway, sand or file down your own flat spot.  Our E-Power motors come built in with all the features wanted in a high performance Electric Skateboard Motor.
  • Sensored E-Power Motor - The new 50mm motors are sensored ESC motors which will help get rid of the normal kick push that most DIY Electric Skateboards were previously use too. We 5065 motor houses an internal PCB with hall sensors 120 degrees apart and work with our Sensored 6S and 12S Electric Skateboard ESCs.
  • 35mm Extra Long Motor Shafts - Our motor shafts are now 35mm in total length. This allows you to use 9mm belts or 15mm belts and fit the entire motor pulley on the motor shaft for added torque pull.
  • 25mm Extra Long Keyway - New motor pulleys and E-Power motor shaft now have room for a 25mm keyway. The 25mm keyway will provide additional torque pull. The keyway also prevents your motor pulley from rotating around the motor shaft.
  • 29mm Extra Long Flat Spot - Our new motor shafts include a built in flat spot which provide a flat and stable location for your set screw to grab onto to prevent horizontal shifting of the motor pulley around your motor shaft. No need to use your file or dremmel to create a flat spot anymore!
  • High Torque E-Power High Voltage Motors with Low KV - Low KV provides higher torque for the end user. Our motors were specifically designed for users who are interested in running high voltage batteries for increased motor efficiency. With a 10S/12S high voltage battery setup, your setup can run up to 35mph per hour and/or run with a greater amount of torque and a capped top speed to your liking.
  • Extra Durable Protective Wiring Sheath - We made these motors extra durable by providing protective wiring around the motor phase wires.

    I was looking to build my first electronic skateboard and I was wondering which motor I should use for an electronic skateboard


  • Robert

    Can you answer a question. I have one of your new 5065 170kV motors with hall sensors but I’m confused. I have a VESC from Ben but there is no female connector on the VESC that matches the hall sensor connector. Can you tell me how to connect it up? Wiring diagram?


  • DIYElectricSkateboard.com

    @Robert – You’ll have to make an adapter from the standard sensor port to the VESC connector. The standard port we use for the sensored motors are standard sensor motor ports. For the VESC it uses a JST 2.0mm pin connector. You’ll need a Nunchucky and wiring cable + the connector to plug into VESC.

    Hi there !

    Did anybody try with the VESC?
    I am looking for a xml config file for the BDLC pgmg interface, to compare.
    + 6s may be a little weak for 170 KV?

    Thx !
    Chrs.
    Yann.

    Looks like a 1 powerful motor! Do you have specs, pricing and availability on these motors yet? Would definitely be interested in one of these.
