2 wheel self balancing scooter
(OP)
Dear members,
i have 2 hub motors off 36v and 400 watt each.
should i use 2 controllers to control both motors or a single controller can be use to control both hub motors.
and what will be the case if i use noormal bldc motor instead of hub motor?
my target is that, a scooter can carry a person of 150kg
thank you

RE: 2 wheel self balancing scooter
Like I said on there I'd go for 2 controllers as single controllers can be give a poor ride. As for the motors definitely go with hubs, they are heavier and generally not as efficient but with something like a self balancing scooter any gains with weight and efficiency will not out-weigh the loss of space and ease of maintenance. We're looking at developing a large off road self balancing scooter (imagine a segway x2 without handlebars) and were still indecisive about using hub motors or brush-less. However, this is different as the demands are very different and still the only way to know for sure is through testing. Id love to hear from your findings, however, I'd play it safe and go for hub motors
