Great drone footage When it went under the bridge I was impressed The wheel looks nice also 😊

[@VeeEUC]

Every time I have the drone up, I have to be mindful of my surroundings and speed. On the way back I was riding a tad bit faster than the drone and it went over the under-path and hoverd over traffic on the bridge because it lost the signal. Talk about an interesting recovery. SMH.

Master P make em say ugh, ugh, nah nah nah, I couldn't resist Vee 😆

[@VeeEUC]

Lol., interestingly enough., I was going to use something similar in the thumbnail., but I opted to play it safe! :))

[@senseivegan]

Vee I have faith in you LOL 🤣🤣 Stellar review as always. My next wheel must have suspension. Thanks for sharing. Have a Fantastic weekend!!

[@VeeEUC]

As always my Friend., I appreciate the love. 🙏🏽

[@urthpainter]

It is easy to judge pedal dip by watching headlight at night during turns, drills. I think Monster Pro also has a bit of 'reverse' dip on hard braking. I seem to remember on original firmware the OG Sherman V1 would definitely tip back on hard braking

[@UStride]

Master P 😂 love it. I came here to get ideas for my review. This was a great and clean review. I need that drone ASAP. GREAT JOB

[@scootyboots]

Another great video production, Vee. That drone follow under the overpass was awesome.

The Long Range King is Here! 👑 Thanks for the info Vee. I definitely want one

[@VeeEUC]

Aayyyeee! It is a smooth ride., although the suspension can do with an overhaul. 😅

[@jarettp1]

Raising the pedal height raises your knees above the wheel making that uncomfortableness go away completely. It's a bigger step up in the beginning but it's worth it.

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for that info. I'll definately try it out. But either way., I'll have to adjust to the steep push off or the irritation to the leg. Either way, both will subside once my body gets used to it. Just like with foot fatigue. Lol (Who could forget that irritation. 😅)

[@fulks19]

I've gotta say that I sure miss your videos. I hope you are doing well and life/retirement is everything you hoped it would be. Take care, Vee.

[@Sparki0609]

Worth noting that your range test ending at 108.8v is well above 10% battery. Tiltback isn't until ~99v. I think you could probably get closer to 150 miles this way.

[@VeeEUC]

I knew I could get more miles out of it., I just stopped at that point because it was a long day. I figured people would get the gist. Now had I rode it till it started beeping, that would've been a different story.

[@mig6220]

Spot on review as usual. I found more aggressive pad setup unleashes the start/ stop power of the wheel. The upper stock pad section which u lock he legs on is 2 fingers wide. Not nearly enuf- but an improved version is on the way (from Kebye GotWay). The plastic battery brackets breaking could be an issue- it's been seen on the Master already. He says he didn't over tighten it... MasPro has a metal shim between the two plastic parts, but that will be addressed also. I can't tell where that clunking sound comes from- my guess is the linkage. I'm sure a aftermarket answer is out there. Until they correct it from the source... Tag Kebye GotWay when u have an issue on FB- he always responds within minutes! Thanks for the review!

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for your feedback and support.. i greatly appreciate it and you.. The aluminum piece you reference in between the battery., one came stripped and they are sending a replacement. As it stands, one of the battery packs bottom row only has two screws holding it in place because of it. The weight of the wheel in conjunction to my weight is what prevents me from gaining any speed initially. Pads DEFINITELY will help, but when I do reviews, I try and stick with original parts of the wheell to give a better assessment of what we're dealing with. 😇

[@JekovenTinsley]

Great Video! I agree with all you said. I am however curious which one of the updates you used. Because on my Master Pro I am having the same problem on soft mode and updated to the lastest firmware. But I noticed there are two Master pro firmwares one at the top and one at the bottom. With they same firmware number which one did you use.

[@VeeEUC]

I used the first one. The wheel went limp, the app did it's count to 100% complete. I turned the wheel off, then on. Took it out and gingerly rode it in soft mode. Got alittle braver and road it normally. Did several hard stops at different speeds., and nothing. It's smooth. I now ride it in soft mode and I'm not a soft mode rider. Figure that.

[@WILSONsHobbies]

Most excellente . Question is, how many batteries did you need to swap out in your drone for this video, it kept up with you very nicely. Now, do you liike this more than the EX20S? Which wheel out of all you have in your stable is your favorite wheel?

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for your feedback and support. I greatly appreciate it. 🤗 The drone shots were taken over the course of four days and each day I swapped out the batteries once. So in essence, I used 2 batteries per shooting. There were ALOT of gusty winds that caused it to struggle to keep up as well as drain the batteries,, that's why most of my footage i was riding slow.. As for my choice between the EX20 or the Pro., EX20. It's more practical of a wheel for me and it suits my needs.

[@hytech1778]

Vee you funny was the wheel that loud 🤣

[@VeeEUC]

Heck yeah. I had people on the trail turning around looking at me after it made a clunking noise from hitting an imperfection in the roadway. Utterly embarrassing.

[@yusufcanaktas6929]

I am 5"7 and 150lbs, waiting for my MasPro to arrive next month. What is your top speed on this wheel and would you consider changing the air shock to prevent bottoming out?

[@VeeEUC]

Top speed, if you can call it that was 47mph. Wasn't speeding, just hitting burst of speeds during range test. As far as the shock is concerned., test it yourself to see. You may find nothing wrong with it. I can live with it cuz I'm too lazy to switch it out., but if I wasn't, I would definately do something different with it.

[@yusufcanaktas6929]

@@VeeEUC gotcha, ty

[@gregx3322]

could You add link to eucworld data of this range test? What was average speed of euc during all test? What was maximum range of your MonsterPro during similiar test?

[@VeeEUC]

🤔, I didn't set-up EUC World app to save nor share data as I don't use the app personally. I only crack open the app just to check my range and battery life for my videos and even then, unless I'm doing a range test., I periodically will shut the app off. Through my recordings I'll jot down info to incorporate into the video. The same for the other wheels I've done reviews on. The Monster Pro will have the same data. Off the top of my head, I don't recall the distance on a fully charged battery nor the average speed, but I know for certain it was more than 100, but less than the Master Pro. I've personally done those miles on a group ride on the Monster.

[@jonwall4994]

Nice review as usual. Why do all these new Begode wheels sound like a bucket of bolts? Why is this excepted as a salable finnished product?

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for the feedback and support. I truly appreciate it and you. Truth be told., the quality for the vast majority of us isn't ok. That is why I try and spend some time with the wheels to see just what cracks may surface. Riding these wheels several hours in a day or two really isn't what I'd deem an indepth review. All things new tend to act knew until you've put it through the rigors. I can't tell you the amount of hate messages I get to stop buying these wheels because I seem to not like them. It's not a thing of not liking them, I just want them to perform in a way conducive to the money I spend on them. $4000+ isn't a drop in the bucket for some people so to spend that kind of money, I don't want to be riding something that have people looking over their shoulders because my NEW wheel makes a loud clanking sound, nor do I want to brake the darn thing down to try and balance their battery packs, nor do I want to buy additional hardware like screws because some are bent or not long enough., etc. China, unlike the western world don't have protocols in place to oversee certain compliance is being strictly adhered too. They can get away with pawning off to customers what we consider sub-standard equipment. Because to them, their not. They also., in the case of EUCs, don't ride like us nor race like us. To be frank, they don't know us. So we take a chance on buying toys or play things., whichever category they fall in, from a country that can't relate to why we think there product is subpar when they aren't having those same issues. (I don't know. I just went on a long tangent. 😅)

[@scottsum1319]

Ahh C'mon Vee, thought ya strong as a power lifter 😁. Just kiddin. Nice review. Its sayin something when someone's riding a wheel as heavy as themselves. Good stuff. TBH tho, I cant help but think that the MasPro is built for the big bois. Me thinks they would have a much easier time with it esp braking

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for the feedback and support. I truly appreciate it and you. 🤗 Lol., power lifter of yester-year.(Yup, that's me.) I've come to the realization, no matter WHAT my brain say or think, my arse ain't getting any younger nor stronger. Practicality is what I'm after and you're right., it is more of a big boi wheel.

[@noelleonard2498]

My master has the same clink on the start of the downward stroke. Ewheels begide rep reviewed my video and said it was normal for a fresh master. I think it's just begode making excuses for the cheap shock. I have to ride in medium mode as I was getting fatigue from having to push so hard onnreally lean out in hard mode to excellerate. And sort mode has way too much forward dip for me.

[@VeeEUC]

I'm inclined to believe you as well that it's a bunch of BS. It's embarrassing riding and you come upon people and before you can tell them your coming to their left or right, you hit an imperfection and.., CLUNK!! They turn around. It sounds down right raggedy for a $4000+ wheel. Initially soft mode had waaayyyyy to much play for me, but something about the firmware uodate., it rides smooth for me now. I've yet to fully ride around in medium mode, but I will definately try it. Thanks for the info.

[@pedrogabrielsalviano]

Which are your drone? Skydio 2 ?

[@VeeEUC]

Yes

[@AssassinationEXTREME]

What was your verdict between soft-med-hard mode?

[@VeeEUC]

At first, soft mode had way too much play in it., but I'm finding that's not the case now. Don't know what changed other than the firmware update. I've yet to try medium for any extended period of time. But between the two I have tried., soft mode. I still have a ways to go before I can definitely say one over the other. 😅

[@AssassinationEXTREME]

Thanks Vee, your reviews are a lot of help! I was tentative updating since medium felt great out the box. I went ahead with the update, but wheel kept turning off during update. I had to troubleshoot by holding the power button down through the entire update. (~5min) Aside from that, soft mode feels awesome. I hope there is split mode down line.

[@VeeEUC]

@@AssassinationEXTREME I'm glad I was able to help. Strange how some folks process is different. My wheel went into a sleep mode. In other words it went limp on me, never turning off.., which caught me by surprise. Lucky I was straddling the wheel when it did or it would've taken a tumble otherwise because I wasn't expecting it. Someone else downloaded the update and is reporting their wheel is worse. I don't know what that's all about, but strange nonetheless.

Where did you get your loading ramp? Im 5'3 and having to lift these heavy-ass wheels into my trunk sucks lol

Another excellent video. Just FYI 1. From the video, your tire looks not seated properly 2. I have created a Sherman like handle bar for Master Pro, it will help you in breaking and stopping, wont need to grab it from under the headlight anymore, check it out on my channel. Some questions that I wanted to ask from a fellow Master Pro owners; 1. have you upgraded your firmware or you still using the stock? If you are using the stock firmware, does your wheel vibrates in soft mode? 2. Does your suspension holds air for more than 2 week, I mean accurate psi number?

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for the feedback and support. I appreciate it and you. 🤗 When I complained about the oscillation in soft mode, Begode sent me to their app to download the "updated" firmware. I blindly followed their instructions without seeing which firmware was on the wheel; however, when the download was complete, I had no issues in soft mode. Matter of fact, I'm riding it in soft mode and I'm not even a soft mode person. Imagine that. As far as losing air.., I tend to cycle "equalize" the sock which i found works for me in not losing air. It requires you to pump the shock to desired pressure. Remove pump. Bounce up and down. Attach pump. The pressure may have dropped. Pump it again. Repeat the process until you see the psi hasn't moved. It may or may not work, but I have had some success in doing it that way. Good luck.

Especially the leather ones. The material isn't as robust after awhile. I also have a pair of EUC Service's pads (Poland). They're fake leather, but the glue have deteriorated and they're constantly sliding off. My point here is, leather is nice and all, but they lose their reliability after awhile.

[@laurv8370]

Hey girl, very nice filming and review. However, forgive me for playing the bitchy side, I come back to my old pain, the shitty charger they offer with this wheel. You claim you charged the wheel in 10 hours from 10% to 100% with a 3A charger. That is 134*3*10*0.8/0.9=3575Wh total battery capacity. Please MAKE SURE you did not get the Master X instead - which I highly suspect - almost all vendors on Aliexpress now offer for sell Master X, advertised as Master Pro, for US$4399 or a bit lower, while the X (whoever offers it) is about $3800. I ordered my Master Pro few days ago (paid, not yet shipped) from there, and for that I was talking to 4 or 5 different sellers, and most didn't even know what they really have in stock, or either what's the difference. Some confuse the X with the normal master, and the Pro with the X. One offered me the Pro for $4200 but the description was "Master Pro 4800Wh Master X 3600Wh", and when I told them to specify what they sell, because "the price is too good for Pro and too high for X", they checked and it was the X. Later they changed the description, and it now says "Master Pro 4800Wh", but from the discussion with them, I know that's an X. I don't know how the waters are there in west, that side of the big pool, but here in east, they are murky.... You can't charge a 4800Wh battery with a 3A charger in 10 hours, unless you discover the holy grail of the free energy... Greetings to Teddy and Aliza...

[@VeeEUC]

Hey there, heeeyyyyy! 1st., thank you so much for the feedback and support. I greatly appreciate it and you. 2nd, you questioning my mistake is not a bitch move. I take no liberties at being called out on my mistake.. I'm not perfect and I prefer to be checked. It keeps me humbled and in check. 😇 The wheel is a Master Pro and the charger is 4amp, not 3. I got 3amps stuck in my brain from using 3amp chargers in like forever. But the stock charger is what I used and I was sure to track the times., give or take several minutes or two, but nothing significant. Also, once I got the wheel home to charge, the battery was hovering at 14%, which stands to reason. As for Aliza and Teddy., I was going to do a tribute in the review at the end for Aliza, but I was super drained working on the video that I didn't want to delay posting it. Unfortunately she had to be put down. Even in typing this, my eyes burn because it's still a sore subject for me. She will no longer photo bomb my videos nor physically follow me EVERYWHERE!! 😅 Teddy, although my daughter's dog i dog sit for her when she's at work. He's a distraction, but not quite the same. But I love him with all his ADHD distractions and his Napoleon complex.

[@laurv8370]

@@VeeEUC "charger is 4 amps" - ok, then please forget what I said, a 4A can indeed charge the Pro as you described (however, the stock charger is 3A, probably that is why you remember it so, and if you have a 4A, probably your dealer upgraded it, which is laudable). Again, very good video. Kudos.

So why ride above 40 km/h are you trying to push euc ridership in order to have a license and registration to ride on the road??? All mopes/vehicles traveling above 40 km/h is required to register and have license plate with the State!!! And you are not allowed on pedestrian/bike paths!!!

[@VeeEUC]

Thank you for your feedback; however, you and I will have to agree to disagree because every jurisdiction in the US has their own set of laws pertaining to the operations of PEVs. One state will vary from another state. In the jurisdiction I'm in.., PEVs ARE ALLOWED ON BIKE PATHS!! Thank you very much! And if I'm on a road closed off to vehicular traffic and I push the wheel to 47mph., so what! I'm not creating a hazard to no one on the road. And what i do on an isolated road will not cause the whole US to regulate every PEV user to have to register nor get a license to operate a PEV. I can see if I'm on the road with cars and riding in a wreckless manner., I can see your point. Quite frankly., I'd welcome the notion of having a license for these wheels. That way I can insure it and recoup any damage that may come of it. God knows how many people houses have burnt down because of them and have had to set-up a GoFund me page as a result.

[@darkstar4494]

Yes in most places in the US we are technically breaking the law or at least in a legal grey area regardless of whether we ride on the street or the bike trail. Ok I’m with breaking the law as long as I’m respectful toward others. Sounds like you’re not.

@@VeeEUC my bike trails say no motorized vehicles, which is why I ride them at night ☹️ I’d say the NYC crew are most likely to get street laws passed for euc. Once a pedestrian gets hurt or killed. I agree you aren’t hurting anyone on the open road, who cares.

[@VeeEUC]

@@darkstar4494 There are some bike trails that say the same here; however, some jurisdictions do not view a PEV as motorized even though it has a motor. Some will allow you to ride under certain speeds., like under 25mph. I do not like riding trails because of children, dogs, cyclist and unaware pedestrians., but sometimes I have to. It is those times I do not go beyond the speed limit set by the county; however, if I'm in the roadway, I am not going to keep my speed at 25mph because that will create a hazard on those roadways with speeds in excess of 25mph. I ride fast enough so as to not impede upon vehicular traffic., hence why I try and stay on roads with speeds no more than 35mph. If I want to do faster speeds, I make sure to go to isolated roads just in case I have a cut-out., which has happened.

[@darkstar4494]

@@VeeEUC oh that’s interesting, maybe I am technically allowed on the bike trails then. Your approach is reasonable and respectful, nobody is going to have a problem with euc on the road if we all ride like that!
