GTV 200miles review - Onewheel GT VESC upgrade from Floatwheel 

IMPORTANT UPDATES: 1. Tony recommends to attach the bluetooth antenna to the transparent plastic cover of the controller box, on the vertical wall that passes the status LEDs light. It's a great location, so install it there and not where I placed in in my video (attached to the controller adapting metal plate). I had a lot of disconnections of the app in the original location and after moving it to where Tony recommends - it works great! 2. The final kit comes with Tony's replacement BMS. I recommend using it if you want a drop in replacement and to avoid any hassle, risk or soldering. 3. There is an option to use the original BMS, but it requires soldering of a bidge between the XT60 power connectors and you must do it while connected to the battery, because when you disconnect it from the battery the BMS bricks (you will need to recalibrate it with a stock controller that has an old firmware, prior to the haptic buzz). Also note that if your stock controller was in charge to 90% mode, the BMS will be stuck in this mode and will not balance the battery cells. Bottom line: it is possible to use the original BMS but it is complicated and risky. Though I did it for a while, I recommend avoiding it. 4. If you upgrade your battery, get a new BMS. The ZBMS from Zbattery Solutions or Flipsky 4S BMS is a great alternative charge-only BMS that can support larger batterries. Tony's BMS only supports up to 18s batteries. 5. The final kit also comes with replacement headlights LED bars for front and back, it's an easy drop in replacement - one screw holds the bars in place and one connector to attach. On the front (controller box) you'll need to use a new longer cable that comes with the kit to connect the bar to the small board with the status LEDs (the original cable is too short). And you should connect the data cable that is routed towards the battery box to a connector on the same small board, next to the power switch connector. On the back (battery box) its a straight forward replacement - install the LEDs bar instead of the original one and connect same connector that was connected to the original bar. Simple. Works great, with ability to change the lighting level by double pressing the GT power button.

float on, man. nice review. i think I need one too!!

Awesome! I can’t wait for these to be available.

Great job on this video! Love the all the testing and detailed stats provided!

Great video. Thanks for the install bit at the beginning as well.

Great video, lots of helpful information, and great scenery on your ride!

Thanks for the updates. Just waiting on Tony....

Any thoughts on the power of the GT-V compared to an ADV?

The GTS did not struggle at all lmao. In fact, I prefer the GTS because it seems faster to me and has more torque. But that just my take on it. I love my SSeries. Anyways great video

How deadly do you want this to be. YESSSSSSSSSS

so what habbits and practivces change with charging on this BMS? is there still an way to limit the charging to 90% ? do you need to be cautious with leaving the charger connected over night?

is this the same controller tony put in the pint?

What’s this GUI Overlay starting 3:16 comes from? Which tool/app is this?

Thanks SOOOO Much for the video this is fantastic... I wonder how much my stone cold chillers will help with the heat.

Watching you rip to 23-26mph on the street just makes me love my GT-S. It still feels at 60% duty cycle at those speeds. So confidence inspiring

Logic is telling me that the Floatwheel V1 crushes the GTV and the V2 Floatwheel should leave everything aside a VOM in the dust. But shit, I still want this.

Do you need to do the soldering iron bit? What does that allow or prevent if you don’t do the soldering? Thanks

Did you tune it yourself or did it come pre-tuned?

what range are you getting with the upgrade?

5:34 5:42 talk about bias, both the GT-S and Floatwheel looked the same amount of struggle going up that hill. Like come on now 🤦‍♂️
