It's a shame the calibration was a bit off, but it's a great opportunity for more computerised skateboards like it! He could definitely add more things to it once he's got it down, like ollie height and distance traveled 🤔
I think the question is why would you want a computerized skateboard in the first place. It's kinda interesting but you're adding weight and possibly affecting the balance of the board for a gimmick that isn't really practical for any real purpose.
@@Makingnewnamesisdumb It's practical for practicing purposes. Easier to push yourself when you know what to aim for, and easier to know what to aim for when your skateboard is automatically telling you now high you pop or how far you manny. Plus it's fun setting personal bests.
Can't wait to see version 2.0 had this idea years ago like I'm sure many of us have props to this guy for taking the initiative to build a prototype soon enough we will have riser pads that connect to your phone that will give you all sorts of feedback from your highest ollie of the day week month to how level your flick is and tips to work on it that's my vision at least
I just had an idea of how you could DIY hack the calibration! If it's possible to dismount the electronics from the board, you could re-mount them at the proper angle with a wedge/spacers/washers. Basically, just tilt the entire electronic assembly to a sweet spot. Maybe then, it'll be more sensitive to trigger the timer to start at the moment the wheels leave the ground. If it's possible, I hope you guys try it!! ..Unless you ask Mr. Rad Lab about it first lol.
I'd move the sensors right up on the nose, or, try some large cruiser wheels on the back so the angle is increased when you manual. Overall it's awesome and someone will develop boards with chips in them soon enough. 🤘🏻

Maybe the gyroscope needs to be calibrated as the one in your phone? I mean the compass, when the phone says you need to turn the phone along the 3 axies. Then putting the board on leveled surface and turning on. IDK, it was fun tho :)
its more like a problem with testing it, when you add forward monentum, force working on that gyro is no longer perpendicularly to the ground im assuming he never done 30sec real manual testing it, witch is okay, i wouldn't do it either xd
What if you just mounted the electronics at a little bit of an angle to make up for the calibration issue? Basically make it think that the board 10° or however much more than it actually is.
I think instead of measuring height it should have registered the amount of pressure on the wheels and the distance traveled but probably would have been too much hardware anyway but awesome that enjoyable content was still created!!
I wonder what the device is using to calculate the distance between the board and the ground because my first 2 thought were (1) that the Braille floor is kinda shiny which might be bad for infrared sensors, (2) the transparent "mud flaps" that cover the top of each device seem slightly concave which might be redirecting a laser if the sensor is using one?? P.S. If it is measured by some sort of sensor using the distance from the ground and not the angle from the ground, then putting the sensors between 2 adjustable guides, (almost like adjusting a car seat forward and back) would make it perfect for MANUAL calibration.. that ones for you Gabe ;)
@@brailleskateboarding Then again.. it might just be the Flux Capacitor😁 - Much Love all the way from South Africa! Recently found the Braille channel after watching one of Ricky's "Reacting to Streamers learning to Skateboard" video's that popped up on my YT home page
There’s an easy enough fix for this it y’all still want to try it: Take the whole device off and remount it opposite the way it’s mounted now but in the same location, and then ride the board backwards from what you’re currently riding. The break angle is the issue less than the board angle. The sensor needs to be physically made aware that it’s tipped, and it’s not making enough contact inside.
What if you had to "activate" it at a high angle but could drop to a lower angle and continue the manual? You guys could have already done that, though and I just missed it or was not in the video.
If he only wanted to figure out manual time it probably would've worked better to put two load cells under each truck instead of using an accelerometer. Then it'd be really easy to detect when all the weight was on a single truck during a manual, regardless of how high it was
yep, that is some real engineering approach! Using accelerometer is really tricky on a board which always moves. He would need to use angular sensor and more mathematics (ideally kalman filtering) to get it working.
I wonder/hope if it was supposed to auto-calibrate the Zero Point setting when you power it on...if so it would need to be flat and still. (kinda like if you turn on your PS5 while holding the stick, it doesn't know where "0" neutral setting is and is wonky).
A lot of potential. Make some special trucks that are still sturdy but houses all the electronics, and you can do without the voice and just make everything record to an app.
Pretty shure by turning it on when it was not level (upside down) the sensor initiated in the wrong angle. Like with a drone it is the same, if you f up the calibration everything is wrong.
At the beginning of the video, the screen reads, "YOU MAMKE IT WE SKATE IT". Since mamke is Slovak for mom, well, I'm just confused. Or is it just a typo for "make"?
I wonder if a gyroscope on the board could identify what trick you are performing too. Also track how clean the tricks were. Imagine how cool live score possibilities would be in skate comps!?
VIDEO IDEA!!!! . . Use any 2 braille members and instead of going to a store and finding something to skate, have them find something random in the braille house (no funky board and or regular boards on wall allowed) and attach trucks to it and have a skate off. Get creative yall! Even two 2x4s screw together long ways is different than one by itself!
Maybe try putting a few big spaces under rear trucks and put some big wheels on rear. I remember on my old street cruiser board it was heaps steeper angle to hit tail. Avagud1 nice to see Ricky back going hard.
Making a computer calculate what's going on with a skateboard is just so complicated, it's all down to what information the gyro is giving the processor. I think with a bit wore work and someone skating it it would work really well.
send it back to fix the angle and add nose manuals. it would be easier to record numbers then insert them into random phrases pre-recorded. maybe add a way to fine tune the angles with a screw or push button or phone app
No one will probably see this, but I think if you lay it flat on the ground and then turn it on it would work perfectly. It needs to be flat at start so it can know the angle
Hey Braille Team, working on editing the video where I learn SMS volume 1 as a beginner,inspired by you guys! Would that be ok if I have some short clips from your guys channel doing those tricks?
@@brailleskateboarding hahaha, apology not necessary, I edit videos myself and know the pain of sending something out with a small error, you will think about it wayyyy more than anyone else who sees it. cheers!
Today's skate progression. I'm finally comfortable enough with power slides that I can do them with out prep time. I was at the park today and some one came around the other side of the quarter pipe and I power slid to avoid him. Thanks for the tutorial on power slides that prevented us from getting bodied.
I wouldnt say the calibration was a problem. While the idea is nice it is not trivial. The real challenge is using the accelerometer to find the angle on a skateboard. The skateboard is really always moving somewhere. The accelerometer readings are garbage. You need to throw some more filtration and physics for it to really work. You really also need to use the angular sensor.
If it was working properly just imagine how much fun Aaron would have with that. Lol
And McNugget
I agree, but still pretty G❤idea

Those are great ideas. Ollie height would be awesome
@@brailleskateboarding Could probably add a compass sensor to detect rotations too!

Yes totally
havent watched yall for years and you guys still come up with original content , love to see it 😢😊😊😊❤
Also, get someone to do some tail stalls and tail slides on the mini ramp, the nose will be well clear of any surface so I imagine it'd work great.

It’s probably just a programming thing, they should ask him to fix the code and have him send it back

0:05 you mamke it we skate it

nice. cleaver
Amazing idea!
Nice
Couple of washers on ones side of the mount to prop up the angle might do the trick
Have you tried turning it off and turning it on again? 😆
Could be calibrated on startup?
Ya
If you would unscrew the electronics n put a wooden wedge under them to tilt the electronics themselves, would that fix the calibration???
Ya we should try
I think instead of measuring height it should have registered the amount of pressure on the wheels and the distance traveled but probably would have been too much hardware anyway but awesome that enjoyable content was still created!!
Thanks so much
Interesting video, you could have tried bigger wheels maybe or raser pads to lift the angle up more?
Right
Maybe you need to switch it on when the board is flat on the ground to allow the accelerometer to to bet set at a flat angle? Just food for thought
Ya jeez I dont know
When is the Day 1 patch coming out?
I wonder what the device is using to calculate the distance between the board and the ground because my first 2 thought were (1) that the Braille floor is kinda shiny which might be bad for infrared sensors, (2) the transparent "mud flaps" that cover the top of each device seem slightly concave which might be redirecting a laser if the sensor is using one??

The open of the boxes is my favorite part of the videos
What happened to Chris Mcnugget? Just curious... I haven't seen him in the videos in a little while
He is working in So Cal
@@brailleskateboarding Thanks guys 👌
@@brailleskateboarding thought his job was with braile since he is sponsored by you guys!
I have wanted this video for years
You should try this with riser pads to make the skateboard higher and then the device will count the time properly
Ok
What if you had to "activate" it at a high angle but could drop to a lower angle and continue the manual? You guys could have already done that, though and I just missed it or was not in the video.
Turn it on with the nose lifted up so when it zeroes itself out, it adds a little bit of a rise to the manual and gets it over that threshold
If he only wanted to figure out manual time it probably would've worked better to put two load cells under each truck instead of using an accelerometer. Then it'd be really easy to detect when all the weight was on a single truck during a manual, regardless of how high it was

(kinda like if you turn on your PS5 while holding the stick, it doesn't know where "0" neutral setting is and is wonky).
I wonder if it has to be dead level when you turn it on, and that's how it calibrates.
Hmmmm
0:05 Has no one seen the spelling mistake when they write you make it we skate it in the beginning they spelt you mamke it we skate it
Sorry ya we missed it
So happy to see Ricky back!
A lot of potential. Make some special trucks that are still sturdy but houses all the electronics, and you can do without the voice and just make everything record to an app.
Who made what @1:03?
Haha
Nah seriously lol I wanna know who threw what and made it, stopping Gabe from being mad
someone needs to make a bop-it version of this
Yes hahaha
Gabe with the fashion! Let's keep it up boyz!
Thanks so much
Maybe risers would raise the board adjusting calibration. Not sure.
Pretty shure by turning it on when it was not level (upside down) the sensor initiated in the wrong angle. Like with a drone it is the same, if you f up the calibration everything is wrong.

Could truck spacers work?!
"hey braille im skateboard rick" had me in stitches

it’s should possible and would be fun to do.
Ya so good
@@brailleskateboarding I read that in Glo's voice
the title say "you mamke it we skate it" 0:06
Dang good catch. You win
Should've used some load cells on the trucks to detect when the wheels were off the ground
Good idea
Wonder if it'll work for airtime give it to JD on the vert ramp and see how much air he can hold
Ok
VIDEO IDEA!!!!

braille is the best yt channel
Thank you
i bet if you had it on the ground wheels down and level then turn it on it might work better because u turned it on upside down
Ya 🤔
it seems more like it matters if you use the nose vs the tail.
Ya maybe

Maybe that thing can find Chris McNugget. 😁
Yes maybe hahaha
“ThAt wAs AbOuT 2 seCoNdS” 😂😂
Haha
Take it off fit it to the nose the angle will be different or use riser pads or manual down hill this could still work
Ok lets go
Maybe the floor is the issue ? Like the light reflection is too high ?
Ya maybe
It’s hilarious that by the end of it everyone was “that was about two seconds” 😂
this is crazy video idea Braille
The random "17 seconds" for just handling the board was borderline trolling lol
Attach the Modul on the nose or on the tail…it‘ll be steeper straight away🤷🏻♂️
Hmmm
No one will probably see this, but I think if you lay it flat on the ground and then turn it on it would work perfectly. It needs to be flat at start so it can know the angle
Maybe it will work if you manual while going up an incline.
Haha
Maybe it was calibrated with a slightly taller skateboard. Like riser pads or higher trucks
Ya hard to say

Right
Great idea needs a little bit of tweaking but I know Aaron would have a lot of fun all you guys would have fun
Awesome
Unscrew it and drill it back exactly in the middle of the board!🙌🏾
Ok
Riser pads to raise the trucks would fix it

Put the sensors in slight angle
AKA
calibrate it
