But bet you could beat him

Gonna ride the F1 track here in melbourne next week. Will hopefully beat my personal top speed. Just not sure what board Iā€™ll be riding just yet :sweat_smile:

Wish I could try something like that in London

There are never any events or anything like that here

These trucks and motors are designed and built as a whole unit, no point in arguing that completely different motors would decrease range. Thatā€™s obvious, and probably the reason why they didnā€™t go with such motorsā€¦

The developers were in the german ā€œLions denā€ show but failed to get funding. The only investor interested told them the price (2000ā‚¬) is way too high to succeed and I totally agree.

Rode it on the ISPO, itā€™s fun and brakes and acceleration are good.
It is light weight and stealth. The RC is really cool/interesting. The connection is not always 100% though.
Range is about 5 miles and you get sag fast.
I had a top speed around 30km/h with 200lbs.
The manufacturer told me you can get up to 40km/h.
For me the biggest issue was that the trucks donā€™t carve, like I expected.

I donā€™t know I got the first one for about $110 delivered and the second one a year later for $90.

That price is bonkers, where you see that.

it might not be the right one. Daddies used to stock it (now out of stock). Thatā€™s the beautiful version Iā€™m ogling!

These came in much quicker than I anticipated @b264 @Scepterr

The last time I checked they were still stuck on 18650 cells too. The electronics is the most interesting part. They should incorporate 21700 cells and find a way to get down to boosted price levels.

Iā€™ve been wanting to ask, what were the 4 pins designed for? And what do you plan to hook them up to

Dont know what theyā€™re intended for, im thinking of USB passthrough if i actually integrate these suckers

According to their website they already use 21700 cells, afaik theyā€™re producing in germany and not in large scale so they need to outsource production for lowering prizes which might lead to copies :wink:

They must have switched since I looked a few months ago (@Linny was asking meg about super-stealth) good to know, too much dinero, do love the ring remote

just bought some too. going to to attempt installing them like @Zach said. they are bloody huge.

Iā€™m guessing itā€™s for CAN/Temp or other comm to esc from battery/bms

also if using in a split battery/esc build, can send out 5v/12v through those pins for lighting

Thereā€™s also an xt30 and xt60 with a single extra pin
