AD: Watch Qualcomm's tutorial series and try out the RB5 Development Kit:    • Video 1 – Introduction to the Qualcom...   and a big thanks to Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. for sponsoring this video!

I built a Star Wars Speeder Bike with omni-directional wheels powered by electric jet engines. I also have a plan for another version of the Star Wars Speeder Bike. Last time, I took the guts from a hoverboard and used them to make a balancing bike. Each original hoverboard wheel is mounted on the bike and drives the bike wheels with a drive belt. This makes the resulting velocity the same as it would have been when the hoverboard wheels were touching the ground. So now the balancing electronics still work as designed since the output velocity of the vehicle is the same.
