NEW ONEWHEEL GT-S Series // is it worth $3,200???
Рет қаралды 28,682
9 ай бұрынOnewheel just hosted their latest event since "Uncharted" where they unveiled the Onewheel GT and Pint X over two years ago. With "Unleashed" Future Motion announced the Onewheel GT-S Series, ready for purchase and brimming with power. New top speeds, more power in this form factor than ever before accomplished, but will this board shape up to be something worth dropping your months salary on, or will it flop?

it's not a matter of affordability but rather getting my money's worth - the VALUE in a purchase. Floatwheel comes with 9 HP peak, can get all kinds of different tires, 36 mile range for $1000 LESS than this new GT. Plus, I can repair, upgrade, replace anything on the Floatwheel. Future Motion should do what Microsoft is doing now by embracing the opensource movement - M$ is moving to linux and FM should just embrace VESC and concentrate on selling quality performance parts - better motors, batteries, BMSs, controllers, tires, accessories. If Future Motion went VESC and came up with a more reliable, cooler, lighter 10-15 HP motor - why wouldn't I buy from them? Step into the 21st century of the opensource movement FM.

$3200... shhhheeeeeshhh. Seems pricey for a overall smaller battery pack. The new motor better be gold because competition is heating up. I think $2,800 would have been a better price point. I also noticed the GT and Pint X each took a $100 jump, but inflation is real (I guess). I'll probably stick with the VESC build. Could you imagine spending $3200 on board without the right to repair it yourself? Yikes.

Gonna be really interesting to see how much traction this board actually gets. $3200?? Floatwheel ADV Pro is under $2k, for $3200 you could get 2x suspension EUCs. Like, a pair of V11s or Masters on sale with double the range and power. $3200 you could buy an XR, replace literally all the parts to customise the snot out of it as a VESC, and still have cash to splash. Heck, you could buy a stock GT and VESC it for that money. That's Patton, T4, S22 Pro price bracket. Nuts. My prediction is you're gonna see ORL guys who don't wanna ride Open running these, and not many other people.

@dezh2544 Since when did being the first to pioneer new tech become “being put into place”? The people in the open source vesc community developing control software and hardware basically for free as a passion had pretty much all of these features years ago. And why hate on someone’s “garage project” even if it’s shitty. It just makes you and asshat in this small OW community. These people dedicate their own free time to developing open source software and knowledge for you and everyone. Just because you don’t understand (or rather are too arrogant to learn) the software, EE, and mechanical skills to make a passion project good, does not diminish the value of their work. Better yet, thanks to vesc, if I decided I wanted a different battery, I could just do it without bricking my board cuz I actually own it 🤷♀️. But I get it bro, you’ve never experienced the joy of actually creating anything by yourself, so instead you throw $3200 at it so you can have the latest and greatest to flex on randos who’ve actually taken the time to learn more skills than you.

Volts does not equal speed. Power (watts or hp) comes from volts x amps. If they are amp limited but not voltage limited, increasing voltage is an easy way to generate more power. As a onewheel plus owner im not a fan of future motion rn, but lets not forget the rules of electricity. Also, a lower capacity battery at a higher voltage can last just as long at the same power draw levels as a lower voltage higher capacity battery

For that price you can buy TWO floatwheel adv pro AND 2 sets of bang bumpers ( cause you know the bangs are what you want on any board ) what happened here is FM bought a float wheel and disected it and copyd it. 113 v ÷3.7v ( cell ) = 30.54 tgis means its likely a 2p 30s setup. Lets vs honest, they spent as little as lossiblle so its likely they updated the wire thickness and motor plug and did little else. That pushback drag jeff is talking about is why im recovering a broken scapuka atm. 30,0000km exp, it was user error but id be stoked to have a bigger overhead for this scenario

If they actually copied the Floatwheel then it’ll be worth the money. Instead they did exactly what Tony suggested in his video by upgrading the electronics then rolled out a wallet raping new price.

I wanted to grab a 60lb vest and take the board to race speeds but the thought of falling with plates or something similar didn't sit well. These boards definitely produce less heat but we'll see what that actually means for racing in the summer heat. In my attempts to overheat the motor I only got it up to 160°

I don't want to be cynical, but man, maybe I wouldn't have purchased a GTS the second it came online if my GT still let me go 26mph... but aw well lol. But wow, a little less weight, more giddy up to fly around corners with, FM's shaping and finally a top speed of 25 sounds good to me. Its is interesting, I've met a ton of riders who have never gone faster than 17mph. If you're just looking to cruise around and you're not a trail rider the GT still seems like a great board. I'm keeping in mind that FM has stated that somehow, someway, the haptic buzz on older models including the GT, will be disableable. I would try a VESC but I just don't have the time or patience to monkey with DIY right now. I need to be buying solutions, not problems at this stage!

How can you still throw dubs on? Doesn't the new digital shaping not allow digital leveling?
@steezli8993 9 ай бұрын
Sure you can’t digital shape it but that doesn’t make dubs completely inrideable and with custom you can do a 3deg nose tilt. The nose tilt in custom isn’t as good as digital leveling but it works well enough for general riding and off-roading, mostly only bothers trick riders.

Yeah idk, onewheel is just so much more accessible for the normal person. People forget that the average rider isn't the major enthusiasts like most people on this channel. The whole crypto only thing and requiring more hands on effort turns many people away. Most people just want something that works out if the box, is easy to learn, and has a good interface.
@justh0dl 9 ай бұрын
People who think floatwheel is going to crush FM are delusional. You can't even finance the floatwheel and you need to pay for it using shitcoin networks, in full. After this you need to wait 1-3 months to get it in two different boxes and spend 1-5 hours building and programming the thing. The GT-S gets to your house in a week, ready to go no setup required. The GT-S also weighs 10+ pounds lighter than a floatwheel. Floatwheel is cool but the GT-S blows it out of the water in nearly every way except for price 😂
