APIC DESIGN

Apic Design is making progress on his FlexElectric project : integrating 2 electric hub-motors on a Flexboardz.

First problem : hub-motor axle are not designed to be installed in a cantilevered position (like on a regular flexboardz) so Apic Design built  really nice "mecano" welded arms (more detail soon) to accomodate 12" wheels total diameter).

Next problem : installing bladers and tires on hubs which are not designed for it (see the spoke holes)....

Interesting concept, where exactly do those wires plug in. And are those motorized hubs a flexiboard original?

Wires will be plugged to the electronic controller and to the battery !
