Hi There,
I recently came on a wayddo EVO set that was put to trash.
The set seems in good conditions put there is no battery.
I ran i quick search but can’t find any information about the specs of the battery, I’ld like to try if the motor works before getting my self in the build or buy a battery.
Also if someone has plans or description of a DIY build of this battery I’ll be intersted.
Thanks for your help
keep it up on foil

Testing the motor is easy. You can use any esc and small battery just to check it turns and runs. Once you know that then start wiring up the rest of the electrics.
Goodluck trying to find a way to make a custom waterproof battery that sits flush within the cavity. Youll need to exactly remodel the battery in CAD, including all connectors. This is not an easy job. Waydoo uses a wet battery principle, so the battery itself is exposed to water, and needs to be filled with epoxy to prevent water from entering.
If you would have a lift or fliteboard, you already have a waterproof cavity (with the hatch) in which you can place a battery.
Modifying a Waydoo for DIY is going to be extremely tough.
As said by @DutchFoiler, if you want to go the DiY route this is an extremely tough job not only for the above mentioned reasons but also because you have to source a compatible battery connector AND a compatible charger with the right female plug.
The fastest / easiest / cheapest way to do it would be to buy a second hand battery AND a compatible charger (appropriate connector);
Best place is probably the Facebook user group called "waydooflyeroneowners"where you’ll have to register.
