What do you get when an electric skateboard meets tank tracks? You Get Ungoverned’s Vendetta. This electric powerboard of sorts was invented by Dan Baldwin, and you ride it like a skateboard, powered by centrally mounted internal drive brushless hub motors concealed in the drive rollers.
The motors are fed by a swappable centrally-located battery pack, which is good for around 40 minutes on a single charge, or slightly longer or shorter depending on the rider’s weight and how fast they travel over various terrains. It can tackle most terrains, thanks to puncture-proof tracks, and it can achieve a top speed of 31 mph. Everything is packed into a 43-pound package, but it’s not quite ready to hit production. Dan is looking to crowdfund 10 prototypes at a cost of around $5,100 USD before further development. More information here.
Caroma Electric Skateboard with Remote, 350W Electric Longboard for Kids Adults, 12.4MPH Top Speed, 8 Miles Range, 7 Layers Maple, 3 Speed Gears Adjustable for Beginners and Experts
- Ideal Christmas Gifts - The electric skateboard is UL 2272 certified and made of 7 layers rock hard maple deck, which can withstand various stamping collisions without deformation, and has better flexibility, stability and durability. It is an excellent Christmas gift for kids.
- Bluetooth Locking and Tracking - The wireless remote control supports 2.4Ghz Bluetooth locking, which can control the forward, backward, acceleration and braking of the electric skateboards. The battery indicator light on the remote control lets you know the battery level of your skateboard at any time.
- Beginners to Advanced Players - 3 speed modes to choose from for beginners and advanced skaters. Low(6.2 mph), medium(9.3 mph) and high(12.4 mph). The 29.4V/2000mah lithium battery can provide 6-8 miles of driving range and can be fully charged in 2 hours.
Now generating a ton of interest, not only locally but also from the US, NZ, Canada, Russia, Sweden & more! Crazy right, I know, and I must now take the leap from prototype to bar-code. So I am first building a small run of just 10 vehicles to assist perfecting the engineering,” said its creator.
