I want a float wheel but I'm old and don't "get" crypto. Why won't they take my old fashioned credit card 😢

And if you take a look at the average speed you can realized that only 0,2 MPH is the difference between the gt-s, and gt. Okay I agree if you want to get more torque it is worth buying gt-s, but for example me who are more into distances gt is still the preferred one.

Wrong. He heard back the following day. I sent my board back for repairs and it was a smooth process. It was under warranty and I had it back in a little over a week.

Thanks, will do!

As a paramedic and a avid rider, this is terrifying. 70 years old and still dragging around those giant balls. LOL God bless you, man. I'm turning 49 in April and my wife shakes her head every time I ride my board. I would imagine that you either wear lots of gear or do not ride anymore. I hope it is the former. Don't you have a wife to tell you to not do this crazy shit?

Are you still riding? I have a few more years to go before I hit that number, but my hardhead tells me I’d be back on it again.🙈😂

Always dress for the SLIDE not the ride

@@milesonewheelwinter ...lots of gear now, for sure!

@@milesonewheelwinter It was my wife that surprised me with the OW GT for my Birthday. I'm 71 now and I still love my Onewheel!!

I got to ride the GTS last weekend for a few hours and I agree 100% with you. I was really excited to feel a big difference, the reality was a little different. It’s a great board, it did climb an area we usually use to drop in, very steep, but the GT did it too… It’s more powerful and it’s fun, but in no way does the difference between the two boards validate the price in my opinion. I will buy a good used one when people are selling them but I will not pay that much for the difference, it’s just not worth it to me. (I will say that it’s more noticeable on trails, which is cool).

5 miles per hour is a astounding difference going up Hill, especially if you're into racing.

Agreed, but we all know neither a dirt bike Nora. Used car will provide the feelings that these boards provide. They're not about being economical. They're about living the life that you want to live. Because it's short savor it!

@@milesonewheelwinter understand emotional feeling of enjoyment for fun-wheeling but it does not excuse FM Onewheel business shortcomings, like their anti competitive practices to 3rd party dealers thats boosted their sales, anti-consumer unable to user replace battery & electronic components, going to proprietary larger unnecessary 6.5” rim instead of using standard 6”, how they have disregarded many customer issues even though fully valid, creating a board that dangerously shuts off no real warning many times then being forced to do soft recall, then realease gt-s right after fixing most what was wrong with gt and adds $1000 to price🤦‍♂️

At that point I’d just vesc it. It’d be cheaper, more customizable, have more power, and not be under FMs control anymore.

@@Electronic4081what is a good vesc?

@@Felisargyle from what I’ve heard the Little FOCer is one of the best you can buy right now, but it does run a little more expensive (~$300). Surfdado has some videos on the Little FOCer and a more budget option, the UBOX 100 (~$130). Also floatwheel sells a vesc that may be good and I think they are upgrading it soon, I haven’t heard too much about that one yet though. Fungineers also said they’d make a round of vescs sometime soon. Overall, I’d definitely watch some of surfdados videos on the vescs he’s used and recommends before doing a conversion.

@@Electronic4081 I was looking into vesc but I had alot of trouble finding any credible sources on how to actually do it. Do you have any recommendations?

@@user-dm4eg5od9b surfdado has a whole series walking through the build and firmware setup on a couple of his conversions. Also the board garage has a similar build series, and floatwheel has some old videos building their old board that could be useful. I’d say the #1 source of information is surfdado, he should have videos on nearly everything you’d need.

Future Motion will not go in to any depth. They will say something vague about some part "not performing up to expectations".

Nothing fails in Vesc boards, ever. 😅

Uh, NO. Look again Sherlock. It's simply the footpad blocking the view of the headlight every time the nose comes down a little. And regarding the caps, if they are rated for higher voltage (which I suspect they are rated for at least 125V, have you seen how HUGE they are in the GT-S??) then they don't care. The controller doesn't control voltage, it controls PWM. Voltage is whatever the battery (or motor) is putting out.

Am I behind or are we actually able to vesc the gt? Because that would be problem solved. the XR star had a certain amount of volts the GT went up to 75 or 76 and the new one is a 113. 84 V from my XR converted with a vesc. Can anybody please tell me the voltage or power available on Ag t if it followed the same formula? I would even be happy with 84 V. I just didn't think we could do that.

@@never2old780 👍✌

Based on how you'ret riding I would have to say it died out of boredom😂

I was more comfortable on the GT-S but that is just because of the extra power. It seems more stable, I think because I was not pushing it close to its limits. Both my GT and GT-S are stock, except that my GT has the same FM Performance Treaded tire that is stock on the GT-S. I also have the Floatlife Kush rear footpad and Lifesavers on the GT. Interestingly, when I weighed them, the GT-S was about 3lbs less than my GT. That could also make it more comfortable.

Onewheels dont have fuses.

@@RIDE-o-REBELLION-o-FLOATCAST I highly doubt they don't have any surface mount fuses on the board.

Agreed. The Skydio 2+ is the best for this type of footage! Too bad Skydio is not selling to consumers anymore! Oddly, my Skydio 2+ crashed into a chain-link fence while filming this video. First time it has crashed into anything. Changed a couple props and it was fine again, not sure why though.

What? They don’t do consumer drones anymore??? Shoot I was thinking of getting one when I get the money! Do they still sell the sky dip 2+?

Skydio 2+ (damn corrector)

Sorry, Skydio withdrew from the consumer market a few months ago. Now, they only sell to the enterprise market. They still sell parts and accessories for the Skydio 2+ to consumers just not the drone itself. Skydio still makes the 2+ as an enterprise drone, just not for consumers. You might be able to find one on eBay.

No. I started with 90% and went up to the top, then came down, so it could not have regenerated above where it started. Also, the app said battery was at 79% when the GT-S quit.
