My husband bricked his GT and now we are nervously researching how to fix it without future motion because his warranty is void from use. This might be just what he needs!!
Good luck. It's my belief what FM wanted all along is a bunch of people with a 2.2k paperweight reliant on them to fix it. Like Apple, but somehow more pretentious and less reasonable
This is all soooo exciting! Really hoping the Pint X version is not far behind! A lot of riders (including us) are beyond excited to get these in our Pint/Pint X!
its incredible that u have made this! hope that it works fine and has no issues on the first batch but it seems fine. i probably wait a little to see who the feedback goes from the comunity before i buy but i think i need this anyway. its so cool that you hack the fm board end make it even better with this kit!
Love it. I believe you're the future of this sport, not a copycat at all. FM is a copycat if anyone is. I have had 6 GTs, 3 Pint X's, and a OW +. All bought used for a steal (around 60-70% of retail price), all with low miles. I saw the video of the guy riding the onewheel device from 2008 or 2010 and realized how truly evil FM is. Not only did they not invent the OW, they implement all the evil practices of Apple while not even being a comms device. It's one thing when Apple locks down a device and claims safety. It's totally another thing when a skateboard company does it. Truly evil and I hope they change or go so bankrupt they're a lesson to all similar companies (such as Boosted boards)...
Apple is also a scam company. Their programs and devices are purpiselymade proprietary by using a boolean negation function. Essentially Tru becomes false, and is the reverted to true in the last code line True = false; That's why you have to use apple mouse, keyboard etc, it's literally the same practice for an inferior device
Ordered a couple of days ago, hoping to get delivery to Scotland so we can build a spare board for international riders coming to Float The Highlands at the end of June
This looks awesome. I’m waiting for the PintX version and have already started this process with the Thor300 for my GT. My big question is, when will the V2 FloatWheel BMS and Controller be out. I’d rather see you support your board first over FutureMotion products.
dyno test was done 2 month ago and I posted the results in the community post, I can confirm all power numbers are dyno tested, as for tune, it's running Nico's tune as default, and I think it pretty much rides like a GT's with better gradient tracking. You gonna love the tune.
@@floatwheel Thank you Tony for the answer, I did watched the dyno test I wasn't sure if it's the final production version is all. All good now. Love to see you riding with GTV and your new board in development. Cheers for an amazing innovation.
Regarding the gaskets, TFL has replacement gaskets that fit well. Alternatively, I've heard that you can heat them up and this apparently shrinks them so they fit back into place better? Dunno haven't tried it, literally just only read this on a single RU-vid comment YMMV GLHF
I placed an order about 22 hour ago... got the confirmation email, but how am I supposed to pay? shouldn't I get some additional info with wallet address or something?
So, this will turn any stock GT into a Vesc GT. Pretty much drop in kit. Is this correct? What other information should I know if I've never entered the world of vesc yet?
That doesn’t make sense. The GTS already has a pack that does over 100V, you could create a more powerful VESC using the 27s1p pack than any other pack he’d provide.
@@floatwheel I would never be getting back into OWing without you Tony! Swore off the things after too many issues with FM. So glad you pushing the right to fix what WE OWN!!!! Much success.
@jaefrmbk2k No doubt. And PintV kit is going to open the floodgates as well. So many Pints out there and with the Pint sale, lots of new blood looking for more range. ChiBattery will see a huge spike in sales also. If FM let go of their death grip and didn't invalidate battery upgrades in one fell swoop, countless of Pints would remain within FM ecosystem. They really prematurely shot themselves in the foot this time, and whoever made that stupid decision didn't have the long-term survival of FM in mind. Now the VESC tsunami is coming, and a new age is upon us!
@@sdmods619 Do you know for sure? Tony haven't replied to me, so I would love to have a confirmation. I don't care about changing the BMS to a 20s afterwards, but if GTV VESC is stick to 18s, the kit is not as appealing to me...
@legolasgleaf GTV is the exact same ESC that is in ADV. ADV is 20s2p 84V, so 100% certain based on that and confirmation from Tony as well. The GTV BMS is limited to 18s but you can change it out to support 20s. Tony also is hearing recommendations to offer GTV without BMS for those going with a different one.
For those of you who are new (which I doubt because this guy has fizzled faster than fast) , save yourself… this guy has exploited so many people. He played so many of us by telling us all what we wanted to hear but then he went even further to give us a board with problems worse than what FM gave us but with even less help and reconciliation. DON’T GET PLAYED!!!
