Stressful waiting for something this long term and having no real idea if it’s almost to us or what to really be expecting. Thank you! Hope all is well.
Have been wondering the same thing. I remember reading it comes in two packages and it could take up to two months for delivery. Patiently waiting but would be nice to see an update
I’m on the countryside of poland right now (my grandma celebrated her 90th birthday here). I ran out of mobile data and I had to go through some struggles to be able to watch this video. But it was totally worth it! I love the front and rear handles. I was a bit concerned that the front bumper didn’t seem to have a handle. But there it is🎉. And it’s on both sides. Everything on the board seems to be so thought through. And it looks like it’s performing amazingly. I enjoyed this video a lot. Thanks! Oh and the next time I’ll come to the countryside here, I’ll hopefully have my ADV Pro with me. I’m dreaming of it while walking through the forests here 😅
That fender system is genius!! I love the fact you can have shortys or a full fender and it looks clean either way. Incredible work Tony I’ll be placing an order soon.
Such an innovative original idea from the folks at Floatwheel, who would never dare take anyone else's idea or design and claim it as their own to make profit.
Nice video! What is the status of the motors? Have they shipped yet? A tear down video would be great to see, it gives people an idea of all the internal components.
Good morning Is it planned to do a tutorial to calibrate the Floatwheel when we receive it with vesc tool or Float control ? or a configuration file to be injected by bluetooth
Great video Tony. What is the current status of the first 40 boards? Everything has being sent ? Is the production motor ready? When are posting a video with a production board ?
Excellent video Tony, board's looking great - love those raw ADV Pro rails! What was the ambient temp? ESC seemed a little hot for riding without any hills. I can't wait to try it in my neighborhood here
and its a 5T sample motor so it might seem esc is hotter than the motor but with Production motor they will be 6T so current will be cut by 20% and esc runs cooler, also considering making an upgrade esc heatsink to be thicker and mounts to topside instead of the bottom of the box, but I'm afraid the smd caps might fall due to their heavy weight

@@crispypritchett7336Sounds amazing but I'm not 100% convinced until we see some real tests. If the board can really be completely submerged for minutes at a time and be absolutely fine then that's a huge feature

16:27 It actually does not matter if you install tha handle on the right or left. The board is topologically simetrical so you can hold it with the left hand even when the handle is on the right. Eg: Just rotate your body 180 when you pick it up.

12.5wh/km is great. By EUC standards, even the very efficient 84V Kinsong perform about 15-20wh/km. Provided the wide tire of OW shaped vehicule, I would have expected more. Good point IMO.
Great product. I'm going to be building this fall and I'll be ordering for sure. Just one thing. Do not use wd40 it's literally fish oil, and attracts dirt. Bearings are greese packed and should be fine if they are quality bearings. Krk bearings have integral dust seals in them, as do most expensive sets. Adding oil of this type attracts more bad than iT does good, if you MUST use oil, then get chain oil from a bike shop, there are "wet" and "dry variants " wet is for mud, dry is dust conditions, these are statically charged with a negative charge ( wet ) that helps repel dust and mud as waTer is slightly negative in polarity. They dry variant used a different additive.. point is they are much better oils for this use, respectfully:)
damn that board is looking soooo good! also how long is that selfie stick? I literally thought someone was following you with the camera for like the first 2 minutes lol
Tony, WD-40 isn't really a good lubricant. 'WD' actually stands for 'water displacement' and is more for loosening rusty parts (it not even that great at that compared to Gibbs or Kroil). You'd be better off using Tri-Flow oil or even better, grease it with Krytox GPL-202 and never have to touch it again!
@@floatwheel yeah.. wd40 acts a solvent and strips the oil/grease from the bearing. Need some good seals like badger used to make maybe? High quality bearings should run well for a long time
Agreed, WD40 is a very average product. I have found Applied Industrial Technologies Corrox HD Corrosion-X to be superior to anything, it forms a molecular bond to the metal surfaces and eliminates any corrosion tendencies, even if there is existing corrosion it is neutralized and protected from any further degradation.
Board is looking awesome. Can’t wait to receive mine. If I may ask, how did you sync up the vesc app screencap with the Insta footage? Was that manually matched up??
Man I'm excited. I saw you mentioned it was washable, would be good to know if you could test with a pressure cleaner. Will better represent hitting water at speed or the tire flicking water off itself at speed. Then i will feel comfortable that it's water proof 😄
Unfortunately this is kind of a downer for me because I have an XR and a GT. The GT is pretty much at the limit of weight. It's actually too heavy in my opinion but I keep it for my long range float board. It gives me 28 miles no problem but usually at 18 I'm stopping to break anyway. So this thing being heavier is a no for me.
Lemme know when u wanna hit a 22hr ride with me. I wake up earlier on ride days than i do to go to work lol. Last day started at 3am and went to 930pm. SATURDAYS ARE FOR WHEELING
To be honest, i think you need to attract more people that do things for you. Now is the time to hire people. You cannot keep doing this much yourself if you want to really grow. And in terms of money this will definitely pay out for you as well. Don't take it as advice, just a view from an entrepreneur. Good luck! And i will probably buy one in the future (missed the presale).
Can we can some water proof testing please?🙏 And maybe also being a bit tougher to the board? Crashing etc (without a human crashing or getting hurt of course)
@@timsergeeff Hello Surfdado I ordered a Floatwheel adv and apparently it's going to have to configure the vesc. Do you have a file already configured with the correct settings on Float control ? THANKS
street rider here. I wanna know the significance of the height adjustments. Because the adv. Pro rails are not as sleek/clean as the adv. So I want to know if it's worth it.
So what about the gunk and maintaining the bearings? Maybe I should, but I don't currently ever do anything to my bearings on my onewheel and I don't notice any gunk
Is there anyway to add wheels to the end of the board like the fangs and at the same time add some retractable handle so that when u run out of battery you can drag it along like a suitcase. The XR is already a heavy thing to carry for more than 1 minute, cant imagine how heavy this thing is gonna be.
If you run out of battery, the best thing you can do is take your shoe laces and tie it around the rear bumper. Then you can pull the board behind you with the battary side facing forward. Never tried it, but saw it online somewhere.
Wondering what max speed is on the adv pro? I see you hit about 35kmph in this video, which is great. My stock XR can just touch 40 on flat ground with its 3hp motor; surely the 6hp of the adv pro could do more than that if it was really pushed?
Is it the application provided with the floatwheel adv when you receive it and to configure it? Is this application free with the purchase of the floatwheel? THANKS
Nice footage of the demo rides! So, how would you remove the fender if you wanted to? It looks like it might be a challenge. What kind of range can you get on the board assuming pavement (w/sample rider weight)?
I have done a few things lately and its helping us speed up the Production speed, I converted a ender3 3d printer into a automatic spotwelder and programed it to spot weld all the battery packs I have created the whole SOP to improve FYR by a looot the first batch is like 60% FYR, now it is around 89% that means we are spending less time fixing problems and the Production success rate is really high right now, still some kinks to smooth out. all in all we can do 270 packs per week at this level of automation. still climbing that Production hill, I'm designing a battery Jig for the automatic spotwelding machine as we speak

@@Jdb63 that’s great. How sophisticated is the alarm? For example can it be based on PWM or remaining safety margin? Can you create multiple types of alarms, depending on PWM?
@@360vroomers Weird, it seems like TH-cam deleted my response to you earlier. Let's try again... The answer is yes to all of that! VESC is extremely customizable. You can have pushback activate at whatever speed or duty cycle you want (duty cycle being essentially the percentage of the motor's power/torque being used). You can also do the same for beep from the board or even custom notifications and sounds sent to your phone, and you can have multiple different one's for different speeds/duty cycle levels at that.
Kinda curious how you would remove stuck mud on the fender due to how hard it is to remove? I know with the Onewheel you can make it so its easier to remove for cleaning.
you love to see the speed im so bummed cause i pretty new GT and i just want this one now my GT was making me want a EUC but now seeing the top speed on this is perfect like 30-35 is a perfect speed sometime the top speed of 20 on the GT is too slow tbh
now the question is do i put money into my one wheel with better rails and one wheels new performance tire aka there version or the enduro and new footpads or sell the GT and get a vesc and then upgrade it from there or just say screww one wheels all together and get a EUC i think the EUCS are badass especially the ones with literal car headligths and suspension and top speeds or 50+ miles per hours you guys should let me know and give me some advice
can't wait to see this machine in real life over here in Switzerland.

The answer is yes to all of that! VESC is extremely customizable. You can have pushback activate at whatever speed or duty cycle you want (duty cycle being essentially the percentage of the motor's power/torque being used). You can also do the same for beep from the board or even custom notifications and sounds sent to your phone, and you can have multiple different one's for different speeds/duty cycle levels at that.
Kinda curious how you would remove stuck mud on the fender due to how hard it is to remove? I know with the Onewheel you can make it so its easier to remove for cleaning.
you love to see the speed im so bummed cause i pretty new GT and i just want this one now my GT was making me want a EUC but now seeing the top speed on this is perfect like 30-35 is a perfect speed sometime the top speed of 20 on the GT is too slow tbh
now the question is do i put money into my one wheel with better rails and one wheels new performance tire aka there version or the enduro and new footpads or sell the GT and get a vesc and then upgrade it from there or just say screww one wheels all together and get a EUC i think the EUCS are badass especially the ones with literal car headligths and suspension and top speeds or 50+ miles per hours you guys should let me know and give me some advice
What kind of hub bearings did you guys decide to go with on the ADV Pro?
NKG
I WILL BUY AS SOON AS AVAILABLE ON WEBSITE, I AM IN AMERICA
DAM YOU HIT 34MPH
DONT USE WD40 ON BEARINGS!!
What's the actual range in such conditions and riding style ? I guess that you've tried.
i want one 😂i want one!!! I WANT ONE!!!!!
What about top speed my record on GT is 47,6 km per hour with the increased power what can be achieved
I'm far from a speed demon but 👀❗️
@@jaefrmbk2k At 30km/h with only 60% duty cycle, the board can probably do a 50 km/h on flat ground. I wouldn't try it though, don't wanna die.
What motor are you using on the scoter thinking about copying that build 😅
it is a 200x50 super slim motor
@@floatwheel awesome also keep up the awesome work on the floatwheel will be buying one for sure just saving up
With a name like Tony its not surprising this is being made, the secret? spell it backwards - Y not.
What magnets are in the hub?
Is the GT accessories compatible with this or do you have to get something specifically for the ADV?
nope we have our own, its a total different board
@@floatwheel Thanks, trying to figure out if I can get the accessories I want for it or am going to have to wait.
34 kmh = 21 mph
my pint x is dying at 6300 miles, i think its time.....
