Welcome to my channel! Join me as I do VESC stunts and fun challenges :) For science!
Here, I'll show you an alternative way to enjoy a Onewheel: VESC. You'll see some of the engineering and performance of this badass platform. Super passionate about this movement - competition is healthy and breeds innovation!

Future Motion could just listen to the community and their customers. After all you’d be out of business without the people buying your product. Amazon is the best example of how to operate. Customer service is everything or you lose your customers loyalty. Future Motion has a chance to turn this around before it’s too late. 10 more years of this and people will turn their back on FM as soon as legal competition enters the market. I see so much hate everywhere towards FM and it’s all intentionally created by FM. Look at all of the past companies that went out of business thinking they were “invincible” until something better came along and crushed them because the business leaders were too ignorant to listen and they lost their customers loyalty. I’m sure this comment will go nowhere as FM has proven it’s their way or the highway. Excited to see you guys get crushed when actual competition enters the market and they actually listen to their customers.🔥🛞🔥
How is the range of a 75v xr vesc with superflux compared to with stock xr hypercore motor? Would think the extra weight of the superflux and extra amps pulled the range would be reduced but interested to know real world data.. thank you
thanks bro! I wouldn't do heavy drops/tricks without a metal plate underneath, unless you use the wooden pad with the exile sensor. But for mellow street riding it hasn't been an issue. But I believe Greg may be working on some custom metal plates..
Thanks for this- super helpful as a reference (and for comparison to check if I eff up. Lol). What clear grip tape did you end up using? Is it course or more like regular skateboard with a fine texture? Thanks!
You're welcome! Hopefully it helps with better installs for everyone else. I used MOB skateboard grip with fine grain for trickin, but an even better option is perforated clear grip to help avoid air bubbles! Also don't preheat the grip before install like I did, when it's cold it'll be more firm and bridge better, and help avoid the wrinkle fold at the bottom. Best clear grip: www.amazon.com/dp/B0949SK7B8?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1
@@MaxxSend Oh, it's already helped me so I'm sure many others will benefit from it. Appreciate your thoughts, insight, and demo! Also for the grip tape info. Suepr helpful as well!
The horseshoe method definitely works well. I just shouldn't have preheated the grip tape cuz it made it more soft n flexible. A cold grip would've helped it stay bridged better and then avoid the wrinkle fold at the bottom. Learn from my oversights!
It looks like an overall good product. And I'm happy to see more aftermarket sensors. Cause there are not much options out there. But I'm wondering why they made the cuts between the areas straight and not curved like on the Floatwheel sensor. It seems like Floatwheel are the only ones who made that geometrical conversion correctly. ("3d concave footpad to 2d flat sensor" calculation) In practice it propably won't make a huge difference as a concaved pad is still pretty flat. But I appreciate the bit of extra effort that Floatwheel puts into such details.
Actually, that geometry accomplishes nothing special. As the gradients and curve within the concave are gradual. Not to mention, the oscillating reliefs within the sensors shape having an oscillation for one footpad may not be agreeable with another. As a result the best course of action was to make straight lines in order to best negotiate all forms for use. Tony’s original footpads had straight lines. He then made them oscillate likely to depart further from FMs form.
@@Exile-exe maybe I got it wrong, but a 3d concave pad is not like a sphere. I’s a side2side concave and a front2back concave that are comming together somehow. This curved lines are just the logical result of it as far as I understand it
@@Eryktion as I said above. Curves offer conformity for precise dimensions. I was determined to offer a ubiquitous fit for all footpads. So I could not be so precise in order to achieve this. So straight lines allow for more generalization and conformity for varying dimension.
@@Exile-exe yeah, I see that FW's sensor only has to fit that one pad and yours is meant to be uinversal. But for a flat pad it doesn't matter if the lines are straight or curved. For a double concaved pad on the other hand it might matter a bit. So even without knowing the exact geometry, I think curved cuts could be slightly better overall. But as I said it propably won't make a huge difference in the end.
Interesting point about straight vs curved cuts. I can see how curved could possibly mold better for concave, but the straight cuts on the Exile along with the moving panels settles perfectly into the concave with no wrinkles. Thanks for ur input🤙🏻
yea I didn't have a metal plate option, but I think it's advisable if you go heavy on the riding. But for mellow street riding I think it's all good, I'll be riding without a plate. For trails and heavy tricks, I'l be using the exile sensor on a wooden pad in the meantime. I believe Greg is working on some metal plate options, stay tuned.. 🥸
@@MaxxSend no activation with shoes on until I added gripples. Greg is aware and should be updating the listing and fixing the design in future production. No dots on the pint sensor.
There are no DDots on the pint. This was a production oversight on my part and will be corrected. On the pints page in the description it is noted that foam grip on pint sensor, may have connection issues. However, regular grip functions as well as the XR/GT versions.
@@MaxxSend Couldn’t agree more. That one was for my wife. Really nice to be able to cut them up to accommodate an odd stance or a foot hook. Hope you get many miles out of it, enjoy dude!
Purchased an ADV 2nd hand and my main complaints are: 1)cracking bumpers 2) handle broke 3) i do a lot of curb drops and already seeing hairline fractures on the rails 4) the app isnt the best 5) bluetooth connectivity issues. People online kept telling me to reach out to floatwheel but i bought it used and i personally dont like fixing things that break. Id rather just buy something that doesnt break. My ADV sits around more than it used too since i use a GT for commuting. Way more reliable and doesnt break or require much assembly /maintenance .
You don't know the difficulty to buy a onewheel here in Mexico, i don't even want to imagine the tech support nightmare in case of a faulty OW. ADV is the answer for us "international" buyers, I'll buy one as soon as they're available 🎉
My biggest thing is after all adjusting I still can’t get the boards nose to stop from dipping down while turning super sharp and in the trails that sucks bc I end up hitting a root or just dragging the nose in the dirt. Sucks! Like I can’t make no sharp turns without it dropping the nose way down
