@loaffette Big oof 😶
Idk. It is priced at what the PintX was so technically still better for the money but I'd still want those little QOL bumps for an S series.

Also that screen snippy you posted shows that bumper edge they mentioned which I couldn't spot on my first viewing. Pretty big so maybe that is for the rail guards like they suggested.

@loaffette said in ONEWHEEL S-SERIES RALLY BOARD:

@sirgu yeah. 450 to get rails put on and releveled is a slap in the face. Not a huge one, but still a slap

Or perhaps a temporary measure until they can sell leveling kits?? maybe that's wishful thinking... it's a potential revenue stream. i get it. I understand the rationale too.

That said - I hoped they learned a lesson about working with small niche consumer markets. Shit went sideways real quick last time huh?! lol...

We tend to live and die by our markets, not the other way around...

@loaffette said in My mom bought a pint:

So my mom decided that she wanted a Onewheel so she could ride with me

wow thats very adventurous! any prior experience with board sports? learning from scratch is risky business!

@loaffette i got the email the other day about their Pint batteries. Mine are still doing fine, but i admit i was tempted to get one just as a backup....

@loaffette yeah, this is definitely an interesting development -- and it sounds like more things are coming?

@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)

Credit to this find goes to NickleMan on the vescify discord

@loaffette I couldn't stomach $3200 even if I had it lol.

She's alive.

Board runs great, and I've already given it hell. The new campus I transfered too is very hilly and has some pretty steep inclines, so I've been pushing my board up the hills to try and stress it out.

I got the Ubox 100v installed, though I had to design my own mount for it and rip it out of the metal housing it came in. Found out the NRF data port and ADC 2 is dead, so that's fun. I have a new MK8 coming in with 120V FETS. Apparently running 150V FETs with a 75.6V battery makes the controller run HOT. Plus, switching to 120V means I can get insane amperage (About 198.6A for Soft max, over 230 abs. max!)

Motor feels great, and I did the hall sensor replacement on my own. Ended up doing all three, took pictures and then made a pev.dev post about how to do it. It's poorly written, but hopefully it's enough.

One of the riders at 1Wheelparts hooked me up with their quickies. I modified the pubpad to fit specifically the quickie, and I'm going to modify the foot hooks from VOW to fit the quickies specifically.

My new footpad runs a V4 Stoked Stock sensor with the first 5mm printed out of thick PETG, then rest out of TPU

Looking into adding PWM control for my COB LED lightbar, but that will come later if I learn PCB design.

THE BOARD WORKS
there's some random issue with the board randomly nose-diving, though I have no reason why. My solder joins are pretty spot on and is pretty good

@puzz360 yep, I've had that happen before

I don't like carrying around umbrellas since I find them to be a hassle to carry, and I often end up just throwing on rain gear and calling it a day.

@lemur thank you!
You and Lia are lifesaves!

@loaffette I scooped on this last time and got a pair of magnetic fenders for my Pint X that I ride in Hawaii. Got a black one I could bang up when I first started riding it and when I'm being more daring and the purple palm decorative one I use for my safer daily rides. Quite a deal!

@loaffette Oh wow that's amazing, even got the FM team to tag along :)

I've wanted to do similar. Tip to tip of the UK from Scotland all the way down to lands end but looking at the route I didn't fancy solo'ing that sort of adventure lol.

@loaffette Addendum:
Bandgersense users, heads up, your badgersense LED strip won't fit, and your little weird block that goes on the motor axle is going to have excess cable.

You will need the badgersight if you do not have a way to mount the LED strip. I will work on LED strip mounting solution later on.

@s-leon I will!
I feel bad for the LED strip getting messed up.

@stinkyface I may get a different product but sadly I don't have welding equipment, and I don't know how to weld

@loaffette Haha i like the naming scheme

@lia thanks! It was literaly done with machines acrylic, printer paper and 3M adhesive. The printer paper works pretty well, actually!
