GT production update January 14/ 2022

Redtron3030 over on Reddit has shared images for each ride profile.

Sirgu · 4 Mar 2022, 23:05

@lia Right. Been trying to find source image couple of last minutes.
EDIT: Probably this blurry image is from OW_UserManual_GT.pdf

Well @biell, we don't need to figure other shaping names now. :)

Anyhow ... accordingly the bar graphics (and descriptions), only
Sequoia & Bay / Elevated / Delirium & Apex
somewhat match.
All of the others promise to be one of a kind but not entirely.

And none of the GT Shapings has bar marked as max. towards the 'Trail'. :O

biell · 4 Mar 2022, 23:30

@sirgu Yep, I thought they would all be named after a consistent pattern like most of the other ones, I was wrong.

It looks like I am most likely going to be on Flow or Highline. If one of those ships default, I will probably stay on it for a while before testing the others.

Also, it looks like Digital Shaping 3.0 only has 2 variables instead of 3. So that definitely opens the door for some exploration.

Anyone else's GT ship? Mine shipped and will arrive tomorrow, but I won't be home for 3 weeks! LOL

Sirgu · 8 Mar 2022, 06:18

@onedangt Must be some itching absence from home. X]

OneDanGTS · 8 Mar 2022, 07:04

@sirgu LOL . . . well, my initial ship date was a few days after I got home last time in January. Then, it was supposed to ship last Monday, so thought I might have a few days to try it out. But, I have a new Pint X here on vacation with me, so that will hopefully tide me over . . . even though I'm pretty sure it won't be as exciting as the GT!

Lemur · 9 Mar 2022, 03:00

@biell Finally got a tracking number, probably just shipping label created.

MacIak · 9 Mar 2022, 12:21

Mine got pushed (again) twice on the day of supposed shipping. (Now on 11th Mar). Luckily then i saw Jake Leary's vid and cancelled my GT.

Mine too :(
Choosing not to watch GT content as I'd like it to be a surprise :)

MacIak · 9 Mar 2022, 13:28

@lia I wish i was that determined. I was...but the "pint pushback" is a dealbraker and had it with FM. Id like to decide wow fast i go and when/how i eat asphalt..Gonna hold off until something really positive convinces me otherwise;)

Lia · 9 Mar 2022, 13:48

@maciak That's fair, I'm not a huge fan of the pushback but after enough "There was no pushback" posts FM probably had to do something. I don't tend to push past the subtle pushback my XR gives but for those that do I bet it's frustrating to have the board go nose high.

Shame it wasn't an option that can be toggled like the new audible beep the GT gives off. Heard it's actually on the board and not the app which is a bonus, not relying on bluetooth is always a plus.

MacIak · 9 Mar 2022, 13:52

@lia Im just gonna wait until there's a demo unit at the local dealer and try it..there is a (bicycle) racetrack near that shop.

yeah that would be great! like ride modes. Pint, GT, XR schemas.

Lia · 9 Mar 2022, 13:57

@maciak Good choice, from what I've heard people are a bit on the fence.

@NotSure Totally should be an option in custom shaping to enable "highway to hell" features. Giving you some freedom over the safety options but not before agreeing to some waiver saying FM are no longer responsible for the rider's safety.

NotSure · 9 Mar 2022, 14:09

@maciak i didnt order yet. not quite sold. in the latest vid TFL board came with bad battery.

im willing to wait till they chase all the gremlins out. I REALLY hope they change pushback in the meantime. if they don't change the firmware to permit XR pushback, RFTR this year will look like a segway tour.

exactly! no persistence either. gotta go through a waiver and a consent screen each time u wanna push the limits, defaults to diaper mode each session. can even have the app surreptitiously log that behavior to defeat claims of legal indemnity.

What like bad BMS, cell issues or do they not know specifically?

that prior image is also a link to

. i dont think they mentioned it but it might be in comments.

Lia · 9 Mar 2022, 14:57

@notsure Saw this comment, could be a hint.

Saw another vid where nothing would work, even connecting the charger just holds a green light.

MacIak · 10 Mar 2022, 21:47

@Lia or any other non US customer waiting on GT: I spoke to FM (about my cancellation and refund as the mail person was avoiding to give answers).
A very kind lady told me that they are having issues with international orders as FED- fuckin' -EX was giving them trouble. So if your date gets pushed this is the reason, FM seriously trying to fix that. They could not even print a return label so i can return my received accessories at this moment.

FEDEX are complete aholes i can tell you. They charged me 43% of the total accessories price for importing it. Usually it's max half of that with DHL or USPS.

EDIT: imagine if i had continued with GT order that would be another €950 on customs taken by Fedex.
