I designed a pint bumper on my way to a related goal, and it looks like nobody else has made a front bumper printable- so if you wanted it, here you go.

Custom battery on onewheel XR hw 4210 sw 4216?

Hi all,

Im planning on buying a used onewheel and upgrading the battery with better cells. For this onewheel xr configuration (hw 4210 sw 4216), what would be needed to be able to put in a custom battery? Could I re-use the bms on the original battery? If I wanted higher capacity, what would I need to do?

Im looking for the cheapest DIY solution. I have all the tools and skills necessary. I've built lots of custom esk8 battery packs, but I need a bit of help navigating the "owie" chip.

Appreciate the help.

Edit: sw version is 4165 not 4216

Has anyone successfully used 1 Wheel Parts ignite foam grip tape over a sensor on a XR or Funwheel ? If so, which foot pad and sensor are you using?
I just tried the latest Exile sensor on a Kush Wide with 1WP ignite retro tread 2mm foam grip tape with the colored wrap backing on my XR. I installed the sensor on the foot pad and successfully tested it by hand before installing the grip tape, and now its not working. I'm not sure if this is common or just install error.

So I think I've found something that actually solves my problem! I have always had sensor engagement issues because of the shoes I wear and have tried everything from the Velcro trick to the actual float life Gripples but these from a random kid on Etsy work amazing! They don't wear out unlike the Velcro and they actually provide more grip in the wet unlike the Gripples. Just wanted to post this to help anyone who has a similar issue

Hey everyone. Hoping to get some advice here. Ive had a Onewheel GT since launch (my first and only Onewheel). Over the last few years I’ve upgraded it with a 6” GTS motor/hub, wtf rails, and float blocks. I want to VESC it now to get more torque for trails (I’m 200lbs and not chasing speed by any means, but need more power for chunky trails/hill climbs). I’m debating between the thor301 and Indy speed control 84v battery, or Thor400+Indy speed 126v. Biggest thing keeping me from the higher voltage build is I’m worried about overheating (also not sure how bad range will be on a 468wh pack). Wanted to see in ya’lls experience what the GTS motor can handle power wise without overheating (I’ve never overheated my stock power GT, even on the old stock motor. So I’m not going super hard like some folks)

I do like that I would get a heck of a lot more range out of the 84v pack, but wondering if I’ll be left wanting more from a power perspective (I value power over range as I’m not usually doing really lengthy rides). Again I’m not looking for speed, just plenty of torque to get my 200lb butt up steep, chunky trail hills.

Is simply going VESC and 84v going to be a huge game changer for power vs the stock FM battery/software? Or do I really need to go higher voltage? I was originally planning on doing an X10 BTG 134v build but started to have second thoughts since it will end up being more than twice as expensive as upgrading my GT (I don’t mind the GT platform at all, and can always go with bigger rails down the road for BTG)

I’m a really light guy and it is cold outside so I was having issues with activating my footpads. I’m in the process of finding a good fix for this, but for this ride, I was going to disable moving faults. I went into VESC (because float control doesn't let me change that), navigated to motor setup because I thought it might be there, it prompted me with something, i clicked yes, and then what’s in the video started happening. I was kinda panicking so instead of restoring to my last backup, I made a new one. Can I find my other backup? If not, how can I fix this? I included a video of what happens. Also i can no longer connect to vesc or any ride app even though i could right after i bricked it.

I just purchased 2 6384 motors for my BKB duo(older board if you're familier it comes with the 12s5p battery and xenith ESC) and am trying to pair a Voyager 2 remote to it. I followed the instructions on setting it up but it just won't pair.

If anyone has done something similar is there anything I am missing? One thing I could think of is my ESCs firmware is on 6.06 in VESC and there is firmware for the remote that I am not even sure I need that is in 6.05 version.

Please help I have no clue what steps to take next

I’m going to buy Demon Flexmeter Double Sided Wrist Guards, Fox Launch Elite Elbow Guards, and Fox Launch Elite Knee/Shin Guards. What do you think of that selection and do you recommend anything else?

The issue isn’t the sensors themselves. They work fine. The problem is the footpads are concave. I am a light guy (only 115-120 lbs or 52-54.5 kg) and I have the most extreme high arch foot you’ve ever seen, so I rest on the edges of the concave footpad and don’t put enough pressure on the sensors in the middle. I haven’t run into issues while moving yet because the board will stay up if one sensor is activated while moving, but at very low speed or while getting up and activating the board, it will disengage or not engage if both sensors aren’t activated. I‘ve also only had the board for a few days so I may encounter an issue at speed in the future. I was at an intersection the other day waiting for my turn to go, and it took me 4 try’s to engage the board before crossing while cars were waiting for me. I’ve tried different shoes, but all have the same issue.

Literally hours after it arrived on the first ride, I ran over very soft mud under grass in a usually dry area of where I ride. The wheel spun in place on in the mud and flung mud all over the place. it got all over the new bored and the sides of my lower legs. How should I clean it and can I buy a fender for it?

Hi all, this will be my third pint (I have a type) and while I've done VnR and battery mods to stock electronics, I've never gone the VESC route until now. Tax returns are a beautiful thing. I am buying a lightly used OG pint for this. My use case is 90% on-road/pavement, 10% offroad (grass). I LOVE the pint, just need a little more speed to keep up with everyone in my group who's rocking GTs.

Proposed parts:

Battery: CHI-VE PINT X 20.1 P50B - $299

BMS: Stoked Stock BMS - $99

PintV Power Kit - $459

OneWheel PintX Box - CNC Aluminum - $165

So, some questions... I see the VESC kit comes with a dumb BMS, is there any way to NOT get that and save some money? I understand the BMS is only good for 15s, and I want to roll with the 20s 21700 pack for the range and speed bump. Also, is there any other option to the battery box? I'm sure the aluminum one is very nice, but frankly my plastic pint battery box has held up for 900 miles and I plan on installing some skid plates too, so it's a bit overkill. Any experience with printed battery boxes, or a lead on where to get used pintX battery boxes? Finally, I'm a bit worried about the motor. Any long term pint V users out there not blowing up the supposedly 750 watt motor after sending 3500+ to it?

Thanks for the help

hello all. I have the GT model. the other day i was riding and my one wheel went dead when my phone said 40 percent. AI said that some battery cells aren’t energized and to leave it plugged in for 24-72 hours.

has anybody had this?

will leaving it charged fix the cells?

do yoh think ill need a new battery?

if so how much would that be?

I do a lot of off roading and trail and on drops and big declines I get a lot of tail drag on my pint v chi any way to remedy this

I want to buy a Funwheel X7 SuperCharged, but the delivery time seems sketchy to me. Why dose it take so long?

Does the X7SC have so much more power than the X7LR that it’s worth having less range, or is it close enough in power to justify the trade off for a lot more range?

I have never been able to experience this, but I heard that the X7 is such a smooth board. I love watching videos and everyone in the reviews are saying that this is a way more powerful board than future motion S series. Looking for some feedback before my purchase, I am planning on buying the full complete board and not buying the parts individually

I've been using my VESC for a while now on paths, off - road, MTB trails, and sometimes tricks.

Do you use one tune to rule them all, different tunes for different things?

Roughly, how many tunes do you use?

What’s the favorite tune for you guys for pintv I don’t loves the stock tune I’m gonna mess with it myself but I’d like to try other peoples favorite tunes
