Interesting, Yes, I have noticed that the battery level will drop a bit if I leave the scooter sitting for a few days, but I have not quantified it. I will pay attention to it and let you know what I find out. 10% drop in 3 days does seem high though. I do not use the locator function on mine though.

I believe you are referring to the regenerative braking, I have it set to medium. I haven't tried the heavy one yet, but I find medium works well and keeps my speed down on pretty steep slopes. Sometimes I will need to use the brake lever as well las the regenerative brake, but as far as I can tell, the brake lever does not actually control the regenerative braking, I believe the regenerative brake kicks in when you let go of the throttle, which does seem weird because the scooter isn't able to coast. Anyway, sorry for the long reply, but yes I have got used to using it and I do like it.

@@NW1337_UA-cam Thank you very much for your reply! I was very surprised that braking does not trigger regenerative braking.

Well.......lets just say the weight limit for this scooter is 265 Lbs and I am over that by a fair margin...... 🤣hehe.

@@NW1337_UA-cam Then I don't understand... I weigh 108 kg. For me, even in D mode, the mileage counter goes down much faster. For me, the actual distance I can drive in D mode is 35 km. Today was my first ride on the scooter. What do you think is the reason for this? Because I can see that yours is a much better mileage saver.

@@liveinthemoment8965 Not sure, but I have a few ideas. Sounds like your scooter is new, I have over 400km on mine, the battery will improve with a few charge/discharge cycles as lithium batteries all do. I do note that my scooter used to estimate my range as 52km on a full battery, but it now has changed that to 40km. I have been keeping a spreadsheet of many rides where I track %battery vs distance, and tried to come up with a realistic estimated range. To be honest I believe the actual true range of my scooter to be somewhere between 30 and 40 km depending on the terrain, not much different than what you are seeing. Also notice in these videos that I always ride between 100% and about 50% battery, below that the power and distance start to drop like a rock. I also have the top speed limited to 25km in the app, not sure if that makes any difference, but I just do that because I don't feel safe above that speed. Hope any of that helps....👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam Yes, the scooter is almost new. But today I got more out of it in S mode than I did yesterday in D mode. So the battery is better. Otherwise, if I understand correctly, the range display is accurate and adapts to the user? That sounds great, because it will be more accurate over time. I really like the scooter so far.

Thank you very much..👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam Data overlay was totally Boss!!!!!

Thanks Wayne, yes it would take a loooong time to walk out to these places.....👍

Hey Richard, good to see you, thank you for stopping in. How are things down in Picayune?

@@NW1337_UA-cam still the same. I hospital now for knee replacement will be back going soon

@@Rip1Outdoors Dang, that doesn't sound very fun. I wish you a speedy recovery and hope your back on the road in no time....👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam thanks

Thank you for checking out the video and leaving a comment. I am going off the translation, and I hope google will translate my response accordingly. There are some very nice places to ride in my City (Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada) however these "DTY" scooter videos are made during my 1-hour lunch break at work, and I have to limit myself to about 30 minutes round trip from my vehicle to get back to work on time. I am exploring some new areas and hopefully they will prove to be a bit more scenic.

@@ЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖЖ I don't think we have anything like that here,.

I agree, I was lucky to get one of the first versions, and although it had minor issues, I wish I had never updated the firmware on it, because it was never the same again after that, and when I purchased a new one a year or two later, it was complete garbage with new hardware and firmware that never worked.

@@NW1337_UA-cam I got new information from the review of the Akaso v50 x which will be released in 2024. Akaso x50 x , In the box packaging, the font X is printed thinly. Using USB Type C, gyroscope is in the menu, the video image is more stable. The difference in version can be seen from the box packaging, with the difference in fonts 1. V50X Letter X Without spaces 2. V50 X letter X with a space 3. V50 x Huruf X ditulis dengan Font Tipis I found the unboxing video of akaso x50 x 2024 ua-cam.com/video/o9wt2UKxVV8/v-deo.htmlsi=QHcNuUBS819NJTJH Indonesian UA-cam channel

It is legible in full sun, I think the washed out look is from the camera. Also I still have the peel off screen protector that came with the bike on the display hehe. The display dims when you turn the headlight on, but other than that I am not sure if you can adjust the brightness. Next time I'm out for a ride I will go into the settings and see if there is a way to adjust the screen, but to answer your question, I have never had any problem reading it in person so far.

I'm just a bit under 1,400km so far with this bike and it has been flawless. I will need new tires soon as I ride mostly on pavement. but that's really it for maintenance. I didn't really look into the elegant, but if it is like the Yukon, then it is a tank. I've never regretted getting this bike, I think it was money extremely well spent. Make sure you look into how to properly care/charge the lithium batteries, as the single most expensive part of the bike is the battery and you will want to take good care of it.

Thank you.

​@@NW1337_UA-camWhat country is this in, the scenery is amazingly beautiful

@@Alan_Khu Canada, in the province of Alberta.

Thanks Dan, yes I have always been quite impressed with the video coming from the GoPro for what it is. Just wish they didn't run so hot....👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam I really liked my Hero 11 and the image quality was stable and sharp. It was the files I hated. They were big but not huge..still, even with reduced sizes the files would sputter and spit during editing. It worked best if I did short runs on the video and the overall file size was smaller (well split up actually lol). I got it to do full sensor and crop in post but that was a mess lol. Thinking back 🤔I never had an issue with overheating because I did short runs. On a bike or scooter, I’d do GoPro for sure! I’m hoping they release a Max 2 at some point. Insta360 is really the only one doing 360.

Good point, and my E-Bike even has a USB outlet on it as well, hmmmm you may be on to something there....Thanks for checking in Dan, and I hope that X20 isn't giving you a blister on the trigger finger hahah.👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam nope, trigger finger is fully calloused lol. I had a Volta grip with a hero 10/11. In the summer I would remove the GP battery and go with the juice from the grip. Heck, you could even leave the battery door off (might get dusty though). If I remember right the GP forgets the date when you remove the battery.??? Weird. Anyway, I would usually thumb past the enter date screen and shoot with default date lol. If I’m not mistaken GP will shut off the monitor while recording (with a set shut off time) if you didn’t need to monitor the recording that might help too. Either way, happy riding!!!

Thanks Wayne, it was a great day for a ride allright.👍

Bendayyyyyyyy ding ding ding ding lol

I agree

Thanks, yes the tires do make quite a bit of noise on pavement, it's not as bad as it seems in the video, but it's definitely there. Thank you for watching and leaving a comment.

Thanks, yes we have had some early snow this year, it's all melted now, I am not sure if I am going to be able to get out riding again or not this year, but I hope to.....👍

Lol, thanks Richard. I'm going to try and get one more in before winter with 3 x cams hahaha.....👍

Thanks Richard, this is one of my favourite sections of our trail system, which goes along the South Saskatchewan River. BTW I put the still shot of the PPP sign in just for you as I know you were on the force down in Picayune and would appreciate the history of our police force up here in Canada.👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam yes I saw that. Thank you

Thanks Richard, for sure Alberta would have been "the wild west" back in those days. Police Point Park is a beautiful ride in the fall. It's awesome that you are getting a Hero 10, I can attest that it is a very solid camera, and at the new low price point since the Hero 12 came out, its a steal. (Ya, I just picked up a second one as well...lol) The only issue I have ever had with my 10 was it overheating on very hot days when I wasn't moving very much.

Thanks Richard, yes fall has definitely begun here, and I have to get out riding as much as possible before the snow flies hahaha...👍

Hey Richard, good to be back, and yes the new seat has been great, much more comfortable than the one I had, I appreciate the suggestion on that. I've been riding lots this summer but haven't been filming much, its been very smoky, hot, dry etc. up here and wouldn't make a very good video, but I hope to post some more going into fall and winter. Take care.

Very cool, If you were stationed at CFB Suffield, the base is still there and active today. I'm not too sure what the history of this particular building is, but it does stand out from the other buildings downtown with the timber framing. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I went back and looked at a couple files from this outing. The H.264 used approximately 0.35 GB / Minute of video, the H.265 was running at approximately 0.293 GB / Minute of video, so maybe 16% savings or so on storage based on my test. Also I would suggest that if you are happy with the video performance I would not try new firmware. I had a lot of trouble with mine once I updated the firmware, and even though I eventually went back to the original 1.0 firmware, the camera was never the same again. Akaso has released a few different hardware revisions on the V50X so putting the incorrect firmware onto one can cause issues including bricking it.

@@NW1337_UA-cam I see, so not drastically smaller. After research into this, I have found that I do have the newest HW version, so none of those posted firmware will work, and I'm stuck with the h.264. I'm not overly concerned with the new changes, as I only shoot in 1080, and the audio is not too horrible (and if I do underwater audio won't matter). Akaso did offered me 5% refund because of this....that's like pocket change.

I haven't had it going over about 26 Km/H to be honest. I generally ride on the bike paths where there are pedestrians, other bikers, dogs, etc. so I have to keep it somewhat tamed..lol. I think there is a way to get rid of that limiter in the settings, but don't quote me on that. I am sure that information is out there somewhere, or I could take a look at the menus next time i take a ride if you can't find the info. I don't think the bike is boring at all, its a lot of fun. You can also go above 32km/hr any time you want, just by using the pedals, keep in mind it is pretty heavy. Thanks for watching a leaving a comment.

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. Yes I agree the fans are pretty cool, especially how they seem to be in sync with the engine.

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I did do a bit of a run down all of the issues in the description of the video, but I have to say the worst issue that really couldn't be worked around was the variable frame rate which causes the stuttering of the video. It might depend on what you are watching it on (phone, or tv, or PC) but when I view this video on a PC monitor, the stuttering is so horrendous that I wouldn't use the footage.

@@NW1337_UA-cam Verrrrrreey interesting. I do quite a bit of photography and editing and the video I ‘see’ on YT shows none of your descriptive context (reason why I articulated). I watched on a 2015 MacBook Pro additionally and the vid looked perfect in that, there was no stuttering… I’ll re-watch it and review it closer but for what I can identify, zero issues from a ‘viewer’ standpoint. I’ll review it my brand new iMac on Safari and Chrome to give a response. Cheers. I just bought the V50x and it’s in firmware 4.1. No issues with these vids I can see either per se. (Full disclosure; been messing with it for only 8 hours…)

Your welcome, glad you enjoyed the video.

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I am about 99% sure this was V1.0. I did try to update the firmware on the V50X as I was having some issues with the memory card. When I tried to update the firmware to either 2.0 or 3.0 (Can't seem to find the email right now) it basically bricked the camera. I had to hunt around the web and eventually found someone with V1.0 firmware available to download and was able to un-brick my camera. There is about a 1% chance this is on V2.0 firmware, as I cant remember which version bricked the V50X, but it was definitely 2.0 or 3.0 that bricked it. The videos I have up of the V50X using v3.0 and V4.0 firmwares are all from a different newer V50X which I ended up returning to Amazon.

Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. It was a goal of mine for many years to get to the Alderson town site and the grave yard, and I am very glad to have had the chance to document and share it.

Thanks Richard, I haven't been doing much shooting lately, its gotten pretty chilly up here as you can tell. Looking forward to the spring time and getting out riding again. I keep meaning to catch up on your videos, I will try and do that....👍

@@NW1337_UA-cam no worries.

Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it.

same here

What's a foamer?

By the 2 smaller intercooler fans in front of the radiator section. If you look at an overhead shot of a locomotive before the gevos the 2 fans between the exhaust stack and the radiator section are not there. Looking at them from the side makes it much easier to identify a gevo due to the 2 different angles on the radiator section.

the radiator for the 2 styles of GEVOS are a lot larger than the u boats, -7, -8, and -9 locomotives i would look up a picture of a dash 9 and compare it to a T3 and T4 gevo radiator if you really want to know the difference

Totally

They were two different cameras which were made years apart. My theory is that they had hardware changes in the new camera (most likely for cost savings) but the new firmware hasn't had all of the bugs worked out of it yet. Yes I agree the original camera and firmware 1.0 is vastly superior to the new camera with the 3.0 firmware. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
