    • Happy Birthday Onewheel Forum <3

      Today the forum turns 1 year old! πŸ₯³
      OWForum 1 Year Anniversary.png

      I won't say this has been super hard. I've had some experience with virtual servers and poking linux in a terminal before but running a platform for others to use 24/7 is a change of pace.

      All that said this forum would be nothing if not for you all choosing to:
      -- A. Trust me to run the place.
      -- B. Continue to make the forum a welcoming and friendly platform.
      -- C. Support and help along the way.

      I'm grateful to you all for keeping the place alive and allowing it to flourish from the ashes of it's former self. To those that are still here, those that no longer visit and the newer members I look forward to keeping the place running another year so you have a safe space to share your Onewheel adventures, builds and friendships.

      No idea what's coming this year but I'm hopeful we all get an amazing year of floating in no matter what you're riding.

    • Thank you

      Hiya all,

      I just wanted to say a massive thank you for keeping this place as nice as it is. Consider this an appreciation post to everyone :)

      I've noticed a lot of negativity within the overall community yet here remains nice, helpful and above all enjoyable to browse and be a part of. This feels more like a community and I'm grateful for seeing it survive as such without a need for any intervention.

      Again, thank you so much <3

    • I got to visit Onewheel HQ πŸ₯°

      Finally got to check this off the todo list πŸ₯°

      IMG_13328(e2).jpg
      @cheppy44 , Me and Kyle outside the office. 2 XS's and a freshy XR

      Huge shoutout to Kyle, Joey, Jack and the team for actually taking the time to see our little creations and show us about a little.

      Not to mention Andy, Lisa and Joaquin who enabled the visit. Drove us from SF to Santa Cruz. They were super cool and we spent the rest of the day and evening exploring SF ^-^

      They were heading to Santa Cruz to drop off a red truck they used at their exhibit which actually happened to be the same one FM used in some promotional material (you can still see the decals used to say onewheel).
      IMG_7429.JPEG

      Seeing the XS's lined up in their office was great.
      IMG_3318.JPG
      Shame there wasn't one we could leave with them but we gave Kyle one of the 2 rails we made extra so they have something from the XS to keep ahold of. Wren has the other :3

      Something I was super stoked to see was old Ironsides. The OG that started it all. It's quite the thing in person!
      IMG_3329.JPG
      It did work but they had to connect some bits πŸ˜… Didn't get to ride it though. Kinda forgot to ask.
      IMG_7435.JPG

      Ironsides, the XS MK1 and the Mk2. I sort of want to do a half scale of it too but I think a GT-S is more appropriate. especially since I plan to make one of these actually move under me.
      IMG_7436.JPG

      After a bit the guys took us through parts of the office. I won't share those pics since that's probably not something we should share in case there were secrets I didn't notice. However we did get to take the Onewheel barrow for a spin.

      After our visit Joey had lunch with us at a nearby oceanside cafΓ©.
      IMG_7446.JPG
      Was a fun little area to chill and chat. Got to hear some cool inside deets about RFTR.

      I'm glossing over bits but I'm still sort of trying to relax after everything that happened last week πŸ˜… Got a bunch of things to still share but like no time to share D: Need to take a day to just unwind.

    • New Onewheel doodle~ "Zoomn't"

      Was working on something else and got a little worn out doing all the tedious ground work.
      The new piece isn't me (gasp) but it's a biggy like my last one "Night Float" So will likely be a while till I'm done with that.

      To try and loosen up and chill I did a round of doodling and decided to recreate an event that happened last year where I nearly ran over a little froggo D:

      Here's the end result~
      Zoomn't.png
      Tried a few new things, thought adding visible emotion to the helmet helped with the vibe while giving some cartoonish linework to emphasise the motion and reaction.

      The frog came out cute too although I have to admit the crude sketch version felt cuter.

      Here's the initial idea sketch... yes it's super crude.
      4a04a611-0b5b-4b1c-add9-a790e828cda9-image.png

      Then a followup linework to flesh out the drawing.
      50d0e522-39f9-471a-a37c-c6ca43793d59-image.png

      Getting some test prints from RB to see if it comes out nicely. Some stickers and a 40x40 pillow to go with the other one :)

      A handful of pics from my trip to the US. I have a bunch but trying not to spam. If you want more of these or keep up visually with what I'm doing I've been using Instagram more.
      https://www.instagram.com/comikzink/

      First up was this beautiful pic I took of @Crow_OW , mine, @cheppy44 and @Demimoto boards on our first ride together towards the end of the day. That night riding back in the complete darkness was a time I will not forget.
      IMG_13613e.jpg

      @cheppy44 Being the amazing boyfriend he is managed to get this entire bridges lights redone to show our fave colours as a surprise for me when we rode by it on a ride he planned well in advance.
      IMG_13554e.jpg

      During our time together we rode around an Arboretum which was really pretty and only slightly sullied by some meanie in golfcart telling us we can't ride around here... even though other modes of transport not too dissimilar were allowed. Jobsworth type guy so we didn't fight it.

      Before leaving me and Nick followed up on the stickers we placed on one of my regular rides by adding a matching pair on his.

      To finish it up on our last ride together I got one clip for an upcoming video in a picturesque area.

    • Onewheel Cookie Cutters

      Update : I finished them ^-^ You can purchase the STL files to 3D print them here.
      https://www.buymeacoffee.com/comikzink/e/189373
      IMG_15556e.jpg


      I've wanted to make one of these for a while and finally last night I crushed out some designs.

      I think these came out pretty cool ^-^

      IMG_15525.JPG

      IMG_15533.JPG

      Surprisingly difficult to make a cookie cutter like this that adds detail without just getting clogged with dough. This released shockingly well.

      Might do the other boards too then upload them to MyMiniFactory for a few quid for the files. For now I've got 4 Gingerbread Onewheels to eat :3

    • RE: Custom headlight and taillight (VESC)

      Look what showed up earlier for me to test in?


      Edit: Just had the production file confirmed too. 8 per PCB, ordered 5 lots so 20 full sets :)

      These will be V-cut into the individual headlights once the components are placed :3

    • RE: XR Controller swap question

      @cw_o Did the seller say what hardware revision it was. It looks like it's pre-serialisation but the 4210-4213 models complain about mismatched BMS's. It can be worked around with additional modding but it's a factor.

      4206-4209 are fine so if it's one of those it'll be a simple swap.

    • RE: XR+ bms issues

      @cheesej Hiya :) That's a 270uH power inductor. If there's actual damage to the windings on it that could cause issues.

      The only time I've seen similar when the battery was fine is dodgy caps on the balance IC.
      Cell voltages can report incorrectly if any of the caps around the balance chip at the other end of the pcb are slightly detached or faulty. Common to do when unplugging the XT60 and bumping one.

      Might be worth giving this post a lookover to see if your board is doing similar if the inductor doesn't solve the issue.

      @onedangts-xl The tire size increase was a must on the GT side. I mean the frame itself looks so much better now with the larger tire.

      Speaking of, how is the tire?

    • RE: The Onewheel GTXS (Half scale GTS)

      At Opensauce the GTXS and XS got up to some shenanigans. The Friday afterparty comprised mostly of it and Wren's VESC showing off.

      During the Friday setup I was asked to help Ivan Miranda repair his " wheeled Onewheel. I assume he'll have a video on that project at some point. However after we got it working I took a few chances to get a few pics with it.
      IMG_1930.jpg

      Future Motion's Alec came to visit us and left his XRC with us while he checked out the rest so we used it as an opportunity to show the scale.
      IMG_1957.jpg

      SimpleFOC's robot dog came to visit again and we handed over a little award for riding the first one.
      IMG_1971.jpg

      Not long after we set off to Santa Cruz and spent some time with FM. We were only in the lobby this time which unknown to us meant there were some GT XLs around the place. Regardless we had some fun helping film some silly promotional clips and showing the team the little boards again.

      We hadn't finished our little trip to Cali yet though. The next day we shot up to Sacramento to visit TFL. Sadly as we pulled up Jeff was leaving as he was ill but the rest of the gang were stoked to see it. Nico especially who after tweaking some of my settings managed to ride it. I have yet to upload the videos of that yet so just trust me broβ„’

      Sadly the video for the above was deleted and nobody knows where it went or how to recover it but TFL did a really funny sketch about Nico handing over a regular sized board to Keaton who then holds the XS.

    • RE: The Onewheel GTXS (Half scale GTS)

      Some work needed doing for the charger so I got some parts made up and painted.
      IMG_1613.jpg

      IMG_1614.jpg

      IMG_1656.jpg

      Tuning the GTXS was a bit of a challenge. I know a bit more about it since rawdogging the XS with just vanilla VESC so with Refloat installed I was able to get it to a near Apex-like tune. And as an added bonus... this

      To get the right look for the rails I did some testing with the plastic ones and found I could get away with some resin printed stencils BUT the XS Series decal was way too fine to get spray paint down reliably so one of Nick's friends managed to make a sticker the right size and that worked out for it. The rest are painted on top of a light coating on the anodised rails.

      IMG_1839.jpg

      IMG_1842.jpg

      Inside there's a USB PD trigger to request 20v. This then goes to a CC/CV boost converter set to charge a little over a regular 7s setup at 1A. I went a little over to account for the voltage drop from a reverse polarity diode I added that also protects the charge port from exposing Batt+. Even with a cover over the magnetic port I wasn't keen on leaving that exposed.

      With the metal parts the build was getting heavy. Without it all together we were already at 3.2kg. Despite this it was able to bonk a little. Sadly the footage I have of this is hella low res for some reason. However it was enough to get a repost on stories from Bohdi on Insta so that's pretty dope.

      With a few final touches and accessories to bring with we had it all good enough to bring to Opensauce.

    • RE: The Onewheel GTXS (Half scale GTS)

      I'll try keep this short πŸ˜…

      Tire was moulded using a 2 part silicone mould with 3d printed inner and outer casings to assist in registration and demoulding. The silicone was made like last time by printing a master with a 0.2mm nozzle at 0.06mm layer height. This was filled and sanded to get an even smoother finish.
      IMG_0846.jpg

      IMG_0884.jpg

      That resulted in this majestic bit of rubber
      IMG_0909.jpg

      Shortly after I took delivery of the CNC, 3DP and new PCBs from JLC and they looked amazing! Cost about Β£1k after shipping and taxes buuuuut... like look at how good these came out.

      Around this time I also got a thermal camera that I started sanity checking my work. Surprisingly the hottest parts were the 5v buck converter and STM32 package. The FETs even under load and DRV chip were chilling. Likely due to the thermal considerations I took but still they barely got warm. Being Pint FETs I guess it makes sense.
