EXCELLENT VIDEO, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I UNDERSTAND THE WORKINGS OF THIS TYPE OF MOTOR, BUT I AM ALWAYS TRYING TO EXPLAIN THE SMART MOTOR TO MANY OTHER PEOPLE. THIS VIDEO WILL HELP VERY MUCH WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT.
Thanks for this video; this is the most elaborate animation and explanation of workings of an EUC I've seen so far. I always have one question though... Is the increased cost of this direct drive system (i figure hub motors are more expensive still?) justified against the gain in eliminating minor wear and tear of, say, a chain drive system used with a normal motor? I'm not well equipped enough to experiment with either just yet, but I do own an EUC with a hub motor and I'm always curious to learn more about all possibilities with EUCs. Thanks!
Thank you! I think all the advantages of a direct drive have more weight then the money and you couldn't manage such a system with a hub motor - would be too slow to act and react in any way and has not enough power and you can't put it exactly in the postion you want to - and this is very important for an unicycle. On the other hand, for small applications you'll always need a small circuit to control the motor - with a hub motor you'll only need a power supply...
Very clear explainations. Good video and animations. Can you tell us more about the firmware and the way it controls the wheel ? Are there lot of differences between the various existing models ? Do they have the same qualities or are there better ones ?
VERY NICE VIDEO, THANKS. THIS VIDEO IS VERY INFORMATIVE, THERE DO NOT SEEM TO BE ANY AMERICAN VIDEOS EXPLAINING THE PRINCIPLE AND CONCEPT OF BRUSH-LESS SMART MOTORS. I UNDERSTAND ALL THESE THINGS, BUT IT IS VERY HARD TO EXPLAIN THESE THINGS TO PEOPLE WHOM DO NOT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING. I HAVE DOWNLOADED YOUR VIDEO. NOW I CAN SHOW PEOPLE AND MAKE THEM UNDERSTAND THESE PRINCIPLES OF THE COMPUTER CHIP GYRO, THE HALL SYSTEM IN SMART MOTORS, NEODYMIUM MAGNETS, BRUSH-LESS OVER BRUSHED MOTORS, AND THE COMPUTER MOFFETT SYSTEM AND HOW IT WORKS. IM NOT GOOD AT GRAPHIC DESIGN OF VIDEOS, OR I WOULD HAVE MADE A VIDEO LIKE THIS. THANK YOU AGAIN.
I've seen the issue when the cycle is on and the wheel is not touching the ground the wheel can spin up and you have to fight with it for a moment as you set it down. The solution to this is so simple I just don't understand why it was not put in place initially. "Weight On Wheels" When there is no weight on the foot pedals the drive goes neutral. It goes partly active with weight on one pedal and full active when weight is on both pedals. It's so simple.
The hoverboards (two wheels) have the feature you are talking about for exactly the reason you mentioned too. I guess the electric unicycles may not have put this in because of (a) reliability concerns since the pedal is on the exterior and low to the ground and (b) cost. The other thing is the electric unicycles are faster than hoverboards. So, as you're riding the unicycle, you could build up enough speed where you hit a small rock or some uneven protrusion on the road surface and temporarily become weightless! Your weightlessness may switch off the electric unicycle's gyro control just enough to upset your balance and cause you to crash.
It barely can get more German than this. Techno intro, double voice over with 1st voice still slightly hearable. During the video.. more unrelated techno noises.
Actually my Inmotion V8 had this twice after I hardly overpowered it. I thought too it was the halls sensor, but someone said it's software based. Kingsong 16X firmware 1.0 had it too, watch kujis video, and it was fixed via software update
Hi I am very interesting in this unicycle scooter the question is: is this gyroscope sensor causes balance and without it there's no balance so you must learn me how it's fixed and is there's any other kits we must fixed beside the controller unit Is this basic are the same in ryno motors and ninebot one z10 from where I buying this gyroscope sensor is it very expensive I am waiting your answer Thanks very much
he still didn't explain how it suspends you. I think the computer is able to very quickly make the motor go in forward and reverse providing the resistance for suspending you.
10000km with something like a veteran Sherman, then just the tire needs to be changed. Another 40000km and maybe the battery will start to show its age. Unless of course you crash it.
unicycles are great and fast , but the only problem is it does not have shock absorber , i had experienced it that if you are riding this for more than 30 minutes on sidewalks and not smooth surface , it become painful to the knee and foot. hope that this manufacture build new models with spring shock absorbers.
+Alvin Abejuro Consider what would happen to the weight of the cycle if you added shock absorber, it would be heavier.Have you tried different types of foot wear ie boots or different types of shoes perhaps that would solve the problem of the pain in the feet, but the knees perhaps try a knee support, I see many people riding these with knee protection perhaps that gives support.But adding a shock absorber would increase the weight.
+flitsies your knees are supposed to be the shock absorbers. Don't ride with your legs locked, bend your knees just a bit, and keep them loose, that way they can bend more when there is a bump, much more comfortable and a lot safer!
Hi, i lift and accidentally shutdown the power of my unicycle while the tire is spinning, it is now making crackling sound everytime i use it. is it bad?
prince bellair crackling sound can have several causes: maybe only sand or waste in the wheel, maybe the cap of the valve or the worst case: a loose magnet in the wheel. It depends also on the wheel. A light "crackling" can also be the normal, magnetic noise.
i see!!my electric unycycle can't even move because of the transistors!it has 3 colours,blue green and yellow.whenever i disconnected blue colours the unycycle's tire can move smoothly and when i connected again the tire won't move..:( could you tell me please what's wrong with my unicycle.
Not anymore I think, 2000 vor the inmotion V11 or 800 for the V8 I think is pretty good value for the amount of fun and range and speed and portability and convenience
