I love riding hoverboards, so I decided to see if we could use the electronics and wheels from one to make a bigger balancing omni-directional vehicle. Other channels have attempted this, but generally they just made the wheels bigger which result in more velocity and less torque than the hoverboard controller is expecting. I solved this by matching the wheel velocity with the correct belt ratio. In Part 2 I'll be putting thrusters on to make to go forward too!
