Question DD Hoverboard motor + Arduino

Considering the price of ODrive boards, I was wondering if it was possible to set up a direct drive wheel with an Arduino Leo. I'm confident in my soldering and assembly skills, but firmware and compatibility side, I'm very unsure of.

Sure, but you will still need a motor driver.

if possible can you please share the link of forum here cause i have looked day and night on this site but i'm unable to find one

You’ll need an odrive or a VESC. There aren’t many good enough motor drivers available suitable for DD FFB.
You can’t shop from AliExpress?

unfortunately aliexpress is banned in our country......that is the reason i am looking for alternatives to controllers and firmware boards

What options DO you have?

i want to use this motor "
24V 350W Hoverboard 6 Inch Brushless Hub Motor With Tyre
"
and from this point i am totally blank about what controller, driver or board to use.
If it is okay for you can i contact you on any other platform like reddit,twitter or any so that it will be easy for me to ask anything.

I understand the motor options. Where are you located, and what stores do you have access to?

i stay in india and have access to some limited online stores for electronics shopping like robu.in, thingbits.in, robokits.co.in, and all this websites have very limited items.....

i'm a student and i do not have experience in electronics but also couldn't afford sim racing stuff thats why i want to build them myself if possible

Amazon? just search “odesc India” and maybe you’ll find something. Hard to help you source parts from the other side of the world.

the cost of the odesc driver on amazon india is 457$(around 38000 indian rupees) its like a 70% of my salary

can you like tell me the technical values of the motor driver so that i can search it on some electronics sites india

No I can’t. But a normal sensored driver isn’t enough. You need encoder support and FOC. I don’t know any other suitable drivers than the Vesc and the odrive. That doesn’t mean there aren’t any options though. It’s just easier with the odrive since you can put everything in it and not need another mcu

if by any chance you come to know about those other options than odrive and vsec can you please reply on this thread....

On this website there is a project with a hoverboard motor, there they put work with controllers.
1 ODESC 4.2
2 MKS XDRIVE MINI
3 MKS XDRIVE-S
