Welcome to the forum.
All the information you need is on this forum. But, I think you might be underestimating the size of this project. Building an e-foil board is an enormous undertaking.
Yes. Stay away from maytech. Except for the maytech remote (it sucks to, but currently the best option).
If you have the budget to buy the Flying Rodeo propulsion unit, and buy an already built board like the Lift board (just the empty board), then you could just focus on building the electronics. Do large R/C Lipo battery backs. Make a waterproof battery enclosure, and a waterproof electronics enclosure (Lift board compartment is a wet compartment). Buy the maytech remote. And a 300-400 amp ESC. Chinese Surf or SUP foil.
But, you’re looking at over $6,000 USD just for all the parts. Maybe closer to $8,000 by the time you get a complete foil setup, and a charging system.
Feel free to check out my build. Good luck!
