GTV Power Kit installation guide

[@jayisdoingstuff]

Future Motion has suddenly turned into Past Motion. This is a game changer

[@AuRowe]

Future Motion hopefully someday will be a good laugh of Past Commotion

[@iamKelvinJ]

Ever since I found out about Floatwheel , Onewheel has become non existent in my mind

[@garrymullins]

Past Motion lmao

[@TRexHeliPilot]

Thank you Tony for this! Future Motion will no longer hold me and my board hostage!! The market for used GTs has just gone up!

[@supzerocom]

Just watching this video is a delight. I don't have a GT anymore, and don't want one, but this is just lovely to watch.Looks like a great product.

[@ict_onewheelbros950]

I have to use a VPN just to watch your videos in the US. My GTV is on the way! Thanks Tony!🤙🤙

[@BMWEnjoyer]

Let's go! Tony is a man of the people. Gonna upgrade my GT with a bigger battery, hub, and GTV kit.

[@RavenRose88]

My husband bricked his GT and now we are nervously researching how to fix it without future motion because his warranty is void from use. This might be just what he needs!!

[@AuRowe]

Good luck. It's my belief what FM wanted all along is a bunch of people with a 2.2k paperweight reliant on them to fix it. Like Apple, but somehow more pretentious and less reasonable

[@shroomsaregoooood]

This should do the trick

This is all soooo exciting! Really hoping the Pint X version is not far behind! A lot of riders (including us) are beyond excited to get these in our Pint/Pint X!

My kit is on the way!! I can't wait. Thank you Float Wheel

[@FloatOnBy]

Tony, at 4:10, you're instructing us to install the screws to secure the main board. You then jumped straight to the BMS. Only after replacing the BMS, I realized that you'd already reconnected installed the front light and reconnected the power. Is this going to be a problem if the new BMS is installed without completing those steps first?

[@rossrada4724]

Thanks for this video! Install was fairly easy and my board feels great!

[@EverydayInternetSol]

Just preordered!! 🎉🎉Sooooo excited.

[@Corn8Bit]

How?

[@compdad]

[@brandonaskins7969]

Awesome! Love my Floatwheel so much I ordered this and I dont even own a GT lol. Guess I need to find a bricked GT for cheap!

[@bleedsblue05esk8]

This looks awesome. I’m waiting for the PintX version and have already started this process with the Thor300 for my GT. My big question is, when will the V2 FloatWheel BMS and Controller be out. I’d rather see you support your board first over FutureMotion products.

[@AuRowe]

Love it. I believe you're the future of this sport, not a copycat at all. FM is a copycat if anyone is. I have had 6 GTs, 3 Pint X's, and a OW +. All bought used for a steal (around 60-70% of retail price), all with low miles. I saw the video of the guy riding the onewheel device from 2008 or 2010 and realized how truly evil FM is. Not only did they not invent the OW, they implement all the evil practices of Apple while not even being a comms device. It's one thing when Apple locks down a device and claims safety. It's totally another thing when a skateboard company does it. Truly evil and I hope they change or go so bankrupt they're a lesson to all similar companies (such as Boosted boards)...

[@MrDmadness]

Apple is also a scam company. Their programs and devices are purpiselymade proprietary by using a boolean negation function. Essentially Tru becomes false, and is the reverted to true in the last code line True = false; That's why you have to use apple mouse, keyboard etc, it's literally the same practice for an inferior device

[@MagmaticFilms]

its incredible that u have made this! hope that it works fine and has no issues on the first batch but it seems fine. i probably wait a little to see who the feedback goes from the comunity before i buy but i think i need this anyway. its so cool that you hack the fm board end make it even better with this kit!

[@flowsolo]

Woooo! I cannot wait to get my hands on this kit!

[@Cletiant0508]

@Tony - Is this kit installable on a GTS or not tested yet?

[@floatwheel]

its not ready for gts yet, planning one but wouldn't come out this year I think

[@breezeey9113]

Can we have more videos on GTV kit, riding/dynamo. Does it need additional tuning? Or is it best to left it untamper with.

[@floatwheel]

dyno test was done 2 month ago and I posted the results in the community post, I can confirm all power numbers are dyno tested, as for tune, it's running Nico's tune as default, and I think it pretty much rides like a GT's with better gradient tracking. You gonna love the tune.

[@breezeey9113]

@@floatwheel Thank you Tony for the answer, I did watched the dyno test I wasn't sure if it's the final production version is all. All good now. Love to see you riding with GTV and your new board in development. Cheers for an amazing innovation.

[@gigitygigitygou]

How bright are the LED's for the front and rear? Do they only produce white and red light or are they RGB capable?

[@floatwheel]

pretty bright and have original function

[@normie26]

Great. Now do the Pint. :)

[@nickwannn]

do you hear that? it's the winds of change

[@SMASHINGblargharghar]

Crazy how easy you've made this

[@dogbog99]

With future motion now selling replacement battery packs for the GT does this mean we can revert back to stock if we want to?

[@Smike2095]

What the foc was that freewheel speed 😱

[@Arkun91]

Best thing ever ! I am so glad this happened!

[@cezarychmura1842]

HI, Tony, please - release the same kit but without the BMS, for people who use different battery setups

[@skafazz]

Yasssss! Ordered!! So stoked for this!

[@TheDroneNerd]

Is there a tutorial for the programming part of this after this installation is complete? I’m not familiar with the software at all.

Its out!! Pintv when?

[@floatwheel]

Testing the pint V BMS right now, see community post

Amazing. Cant wait!

Great I have a pintX can’t wait to drop de FM cancer. They’re keeping custom shaping away from us even though it’s just a software upgrade…

[@mggeo103]

​Do you think we'll get an xr kit?@@floatwheel

[@PapaP86]

This is awesome. At some point I may consider picking up a used GT even though I just got an ADV

[@GearsAddict360]

So, this will turn any stock GT into a Vesc GT. Pretty much drop in kit. Is this correct? What other information should I know if I've never entered the world of vesc yet?

[@floatwheel]

yup

[@Charlie-vb4sn]

I couldn’t find this anywhere, what is the battery voltage for the flotwheel adv? I know gts is 113 v

[@garrymullins]

Regarding the gaskets, TFL has replacement gaskets that fit well. Alternatively, I've heard that you can heat them up and this apparently shrinks them so they fit back into place better? Dunno haven't tried it, literally just only read this on a single KZbin comment YMMV GLHF

[@fixmypev]

I’ve used hot air, boiled them, and even froze them. No luck. Better to buy replacements that will last forever.

[@MrDmadness]

You can buy gasket material at any plumbing shop or hardware store, and make any gasket you need.

[@CHAIRFORCE1.]

Do you recommend thermal paste on top of the thermal pad, or is the pad by itself sufficient?

[@floatwheel]

the pad is enough I think, can barely get it over 50C

[@barrymonteiro8893]

At the 3:00 min mark you say to make sure to get the thermal pad on the box not the ESC. Can you demonstrate or better explain what you mean by this?

[@floatwheel]

after you remove the GT esc，the thermal pad is likely sticking on the esc，remove it from the esc and stick it to the box

[@barrymonteiro8893]

@@floatwheel thanks for the rapid reply!

[@-JohnSmith-]

People still ride FM boards?

[@walkersea6154]

I installed my Gtv kit as shown in the video and my Gtv will go 3 feet then throw me off. Is there a video on how to program it? I thought it was supposed to be preprogrammed? I also sent Tony an email.

[@floatwheel]

@@walkersea6154 it is very likely your motor plug is not plugged in fully

[@walkersea6154]

@@floatwheel just checked the motor plug is fully connected. I pulled it to check for corrosion or bent pins and everything is perfectly fine. When I say it throws me off, it goes full power and brings the nose up/does a burn out.

Tony does the board charge like normal can you use the stock GT charger?

[@floatwheel]

yup

[@adam-qd5xx]

Does anyone know if I can use the controller (not BMS) with a higher voltage battery. I’m thinking about eventually upgrading my GT to 18s.

[@MrDmadness]

It's a vesc so you should be able too just fine.

[@adam-qd5xx]

@@MrDmadness not all VESC are rated at the same voltage, but I’m guessing it will be fine. Just want to see if anyone can confirm

[@MrDmadness]

@@adam-qd5xx take a resistance reading across the circuit and do the math. This will tell you for sure. Or talk to vedder and they can confirn

[@floatwheel]

it is rated for under 20S

[@sethedwards2158]

And word on the GTS version? If you sell a 100V conversion pack and the batteries to go with it, I'd buy it in a heartbeat

[@destruxandexploze2552]

That doesn’t make sense. The GTS already has a pack that does over 100V, you could create a more powerful VESC using the 27s1p pack than any other pack he’d provide.

Is the payment method still cryptocurrency only? *Asking from the U.S.*

[@FloatinCanada]

Yes, there is no other option for them as long as Future Motion continues lawsuits.

[@legolasgleaf]

It looks great!! Is it possible to upgrade the battery of the GT to a 20s battery instead of the 18s one? Thanks

[@sdmods619]

Yes, but a different BMS is required since GTV kit BMS is 18s2p only.

[@jaefrmbk2k]

👆🏾 There are gonna be a lot more opportunities for controller and battery makers w/the popularity of this kit

[@sdmods619]

@jaefrmbk2k No doubt. And PintV kit is going to open the floodgates as well. So many Pints out there and with the Pint sale, lots of new blood looking for more range. ChiBattery will see a huge spike in sales also. If FM let go of their death grip and didn't invalidate battery upgrades in one fell swoop, countless of Pints would remain within FM ecosystem. They really prematurely shot themselves in the foot this time, and whoever made that stupid decision didn't have the long-term survival of FM in mind. Now the VESC tsunami is coming, and a new age is upon us!

[@legolasgleaf]

@@sdmods619 Do you know for sure? Tony haven't replied to me, so I would love to have a confirmation. I don't care about changing the BMS to a 20s afterwards, but if GTV VESC is stick to 18s, the kit is not as appealing to me...

[@sdmods619]

@legolasgleaf GTV is the exact same ESC that is in ADV. ADV is 20s2p 84V, so 100% certain based on that and confirmation from Tony as well. The GTV BMS is limited to 18s but you can change it out to support 20s. Tony also is hearing recommendations to offer GTV without BMS for those going with a different one.
