GT production update January 14/ 2022
-
@lia Did you also notice it is called "MAPS" now instead of "RIDES". I am curious to see what the Mission equivalent is called. I expect to ride that mode, but will be open to trying Apex and custom.
Should we start taking bets on the other names? I'm going with Solstice to replace Sequoia and BlueRidge for Mission.
-
@sirgu Go to the app store and the "open" button should be "update" instead. IOS doesn't push updates straight away for some reason.
Good to see the extra control for the lights. Kind of surprised it wasn't just a 3 position slider instead of 2 buttons. Full - Normal - Off
@biell Oh I didn't notice, yeah they updated the name on my app too. I think I'll likely find myself sitting on whatever borders custom unless one of the former feels nicer.
-
Redtron3030 over on Reddit has shared images for each ride profile.
-
@lia Right. Been trying to find source image couple of last minutes.
EDIT: Probably this blurry image is from OW_UserManual_GT.pdfWell @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
-
@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
GT-S > GT > Pint X > XR > +
-
@onedangt Must be some itching absence from home. X]
-
@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!
-
@biell Finally got a tracking number, probably just shipping label created.

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 :) -
@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;)
Aka "Vommbat"
-
@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.
-
@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.
-
@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.
-
@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.
XR's got what plants crave!

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?
