So, remember this GT ghosting problem? Because of it, CNR wouldn't ship me my GT grip tape that I ordered. They wanted to wait until FM had figured out the problem before shipping the grip tape. Well, it took them so long to decide that ghosting was fixed that I honestly forgot I had ordered it. in fact, since then, I have been through 3 different GT footpad configurations!

But, apparently we can all now agree that ghosting is fixed, because I got this today from CNR. Note the April 22nd delivered date on my XR grip isn't in the future, it is two years ago!

I assume that at some point in time I will find some use for this.

@aiden1983 At this point I cannot give you any good advice, just guessing.
Just be aware throwing parts at it may not be cost effective and may cause a massive short that can cause a fire, ask me how I know.
I always plug in the battery outside after a repair.
Maybe look for a working Pint controller circuit board instead. Sorry.

rode the Dubs for over a year and a half but I am 47 and not racing anywhere now and want to ride in comfort 😂 so have gone back to factory rails.
This board is my daily driver, I go to work on it and anywhere else I need to be ❤️

@samuraipunch I don't want to change the battery now, but have to do it after like 5 years or something, and would be great if i don't have to send it back for that

@s-leon very cool! hope it works out for you :)

@lemur thank you!
You and Lia are lifesaves!

Black with Carbon protector, please.

@lia we found a solution
we are going to use something called Bullet and each article/page is going to be it's own google document

It requires some weird HTML stuff but we're gonna give it a go

We also found out that Notion may give you unlimited pages if you only use one account to edit it (I think)

@puzz360 Hope you have loads of fun with these ^-^

@onedangts said in Sick of OW Reddit:

Is it just me or has the drama over on the reddit sub calmed down in the last few days?

I was wrong, it was just a lull! :D :D :D

Updated the groups to include some of the newer models like the GT-S XL since I know at least one of you lot own one 🥳 (I'm jealous)

I don't think there's really any others I need to add unless anyone thinks the Fungineers X7/X10 boards deserve their own group(s)?

@b0ardski I used Outdoor window insulator tape, it is really thin. It probably does nothing. But, I figured to err on the side of caution was the better choice.  Normally I have no problem with the Hoverpads, but during the winter, my Plus has trouble before it warms up. My hope was that this tiny bit of extra material would make that less likely. If it works at all, I would think it would at least work the same with fishbones.

@notsure -- I very much enjoy here on this forum your perspectives and analyses. Crisp, intelligent, often with razor sharp humor, and to the point! Looking forward to more... and more...

@sirgu some of my fave too, got one like it in the “Long floaty clouds” vid and wanted more.

Realised the GoPro could do 1080p/240fps so did those with it. First few came out bad as the default slomo preset has the bitrate low for some reason. Ended up redoing a bunch but glad I did as they looked more like 480p at the low preset D:

Hoping to improve some of the shots I get on newer stuff. The GoPro has a pretty bad dynamic range so if there is a huge variance in light like in my flat it gets either blown out or underexposed... which in my case was both. I'm cheap though and cameras are real pricey so looking at a second hand Panasonic Lumix G7 currently. 4k/30 and apparently is good in low light :)

"Possible only in US." :,)
Well grabbed!

It wasn't called a funny name as such, but I had a great ride around a nearby cities vast park system at the weekend, and slowing to pass a couple they seemed particularly interested in it. The guy was agog and kept pointing at it saying, "but it's only got one wheel". 😁

@OneDanGT @teddybeavis Yo, thanks for detailed insight! Also glad the update went without any glitches for you two. Any of you willing to do paved uphill test at modest speed? Might experience your Haptic Buzz properly for the first time.

@kallepetter Sorry for a late reply.
I ended up going with a higher voltage rated replacement for Q15:

This is the stock one:

For Q12, I got these:

I lowered the board one notch because I wanted to try it. It feels so good, so stable. The fender doesn't fit now but I don't think I can go back. 😭

@Lemur that's so cool!
