Long time reader of the forum here that finally has put together my own board.
As many others here the actual building of the board itself is what has always kept me from starting my own project. But earlier this year when I noticed Fliteboard were selling their 100L Fiberglass series 5 board (Yuzu color) for 1145€ I jumped on it.
Had my first test run recently and the board works really nice. although I have no other reference
It was my first try on any foil, never been surfing or anything like that so I only managed to ride it on my knees first day. But still really fun!
Board setup is: Board: Fliteboard Fiberglass Series 5 Yuzu 100l Foil: GONG | Foil X-Over V3 - Alu 85 - Aluminium / L / Black Adapter plate: Was lucky to grab one of @Kian 's last adapter plates Motor: Flipsky 65161 120kv Motor mount: Self made from acetal.

This was my very first go at efoiling so ofc there was a lot of time not spent up on foil and falling while trying to get up on my feet.
The only number I have is the 82wh/hm that my remote reports.
Your mount def looks sleeker and I can see it being more efficient.
Right now I don’t have a good way to machine my mast but maybe some time later
