Floatwheel ADV Pro ride video NOT by Tony/Floatwheel itself.
Floatwheel is back...

Looking forward to the Floatwheel torpedos... Wonder if they learned anything from the GT front concave footpads...
"... We've been trying to reach you about abandoning the OW as a platform, and convert to EUCs."

@lia did you have to stop the video and do a happy dance when you heard the part about test pads?

@biell
Am the happy, test paaaaads~
Was there any mention of an actual schematics coming soon though? -

I would not be too surprised if those will be featured in course of time. Because high skilled people would map these down anyways. Dude speaks about everything with open cards. Simply marvelous.

Floatwheel boards are shipping apparently. Someone in one of my ridegroups has ordered one. I may try and get a few minutes of riding on it before I head to college in less than a month

So, on the Vescify discord, Surfdado claims that his floatwheel died to some water damage
he says the enclosure and battery box are bone dry, but the motor plug let water in, rust on the hub and a dead ESC
