You can install a Raspberry Pi (like a RPiZeroW or a RPI3) inside the hoverboard, powered from a DC-DC convertor off 12v or 38v, and connect to the hoverboard via an STLINK if you want to program it via the RPI and a USB serial.

⚠️ If you want to use a Raspberry 3 with UART on GPIO, please follow this guide

Also, on any RPI don't forget to make your serial port transparent before using it

Accessing serial interface

If you use a USB serial dongle, use:
```
screen /dev/ttyUSB0
```
If you use GPIO UART, try:
```
screen /dev/ttyS0
```
OR
```
screen /dev/ttyAMA0
```

For control, you can use Node-Red.
