First of all, thanks to this great community and for all the information I’ve been able to pick up from the posts.
So here’s my project, I own the following wingfoil board :
Gong hipe perf inflatable board 5,5’ 125L
85cm mast
Gong V3, 95cm 1400cm2 front wing
Gong V3, 44cm 280cm2 stabilizer
(80kg rider)
and I’d like to outfit it with a removable e-foil kit.
I was thinking of FlipSky, specifically the 65161, 120kw motor, the Flipsky FSESC 75300 controller, I’d like your opinions.
I want to be able to ride the e-foil when wind conditions aren’t favorable for wingfoiling and then remove it so I can keep progressing in wingfoil.
Do you have any recommendations?
Has anyone already tried fitting this type of board?
Thanks in advance.

hi steve, i am working on a box system to attatch with straps on back of the board (gong mint, 5.5 hipe alos lots of place for a box) with V2 mast
i gone use the leach pin and foot trap screw to hold teh straps
i have a 30Ah batterij in a pelikan box.
The motor and VESC choice are common for full Efoil use! Most use 75200 but the 75300 is even more capable - Physical size of VESC is a consideration. Make sure you get round shaft for motor.
Time to switch modes and drag from motor phase wires might drive the purchase of a second mast.
Cooling of the VESC will need to be addressed.
You don’t mention battery/size, remote choice, prop choice, motor mount and how you are going to house the components.
