Hi every body, sorry for this weird title, but I figured people would be more likely to read my post this way.
I’ve been thinking about building an eFoil for a while, so now is the time to take the big plunge! My training and experience is in signal processing for fax modems (for those who remember, yes, that was a long time ago), so I need all the help I can get.
I am starting my build with the following elements, the challenge being to make it as cheap as possible, while optimizing its performance:
Motor Maytech MTI65162 100Kv
Why? it seemed reasonable and it was on sale over the holidays.
ESC: homemade by my husband
Why? To keep him busy and out of trouble. He’s relentlessly working on it as I type. Just walked by to say he’s stumped. Not good. But I have faith.
Battery
Not sure if to buy or build.
Foil mast and wing
Old Liquid Force model.
Board
Old windsurfer donated by a friend.
