    I've got the backfire g2 black love it need to upgrade but a tip to anyone who has one when it comes up on the remote that the board battery has only 25% left, it will actually have 50% of the battery remaining iv got a top mount battery box on mine with 3x 10s2p stock battery's from backfire i have a volt reader installed on top so i can get a live volt read out while riding. And at 2 bars when it's comes up 25% you'll actually have 36volts left wich is half of a 36 volt battery for anyone who have no idea what there on about and lets face it you should if your on this channel a 36 volt battery actually is 42 volt at peek hope this helps someone and great video Man feels like iv been waiting for months for a new video but you never disappoint. Love it bro kinda dislike how the era is a uni body board would make it difficult to buy a new esc if it fries definitely a great deal for 400usd and you get that backfire quality and customer service with without saying too much is too good thanks a lot for the free battery backfire 🤣

    Hey Daniel, which board do you prefer and why (in short): the X1 Max or the Era 2? I live in a country where e-boards aren’t allowed. Therefore, I’m looking for a sleek board. The difference in price is €300 even with the offers. Is the difference in price worth it?

    Call me spoiled but I have to have a drop deck design. I like the lower feeling. Thanks for the video, hope the leg is getting easier to work with, I've been there with broken(femur) leg, ankle, feet, hip, . Keep at it, didn't take me too long to get back to normal. I think it was 2 years to stretch and walk faster. Anyways any break can hurt and slow you down but now I run quite fast.

      @ghostc3566 Рік тому

      It’s hard to get a real drop down style deck on an eboard bc of the battery and esc underneath hitting the floor only way to fix it is risers which make having the drop pointless if u can diy a super thin battery enclosure then maybe lol

    Hello guys I need help! I want to buy a nice board easy to ride and carve on the road. I was going to buy Exway Flex (maybe the latest PRO version) but maybe there are better options now. It will be my first board, just for fun, I still don't know if I will like to skate, so maybe cheaper is better. What board do you advice to buy?

    Is the motor also hobbywing compatible? Ie,their 96mm sleeves? I noticed & like their thru-hole sleeve design. Having the thread in the hubcap will make it easier to repair, if it's stripped. +1 for hobby... I mean backfire

    For manufacturing efficiency, they shouldn't be splitting so many sku in motor lineup. This will make production complicated and hard for maintenence in stock. Especially for industries like electric skateboard when order is very small comparing to other product categories!!!

    Hey Daniel, I've got a question for you. What is your honest opinion of these budget/cheap (UNDER $500) boards?
    To me, it seems as though these budget boards are made to have a maximum range of 500 miles/800 kilometer.
    It seems like, sure it is a budget board and it costs only $400. But, the boards are designed to fail QUICK and almost instantly.
    I buy a $500 budget board, and then, within 500 miles / 800 kilometers, I am constantly spending more and more money for upkeep and maintenance.
    $60 Hub Motors, I need to buy two Hub Motors.
    $40 back wheels, I need to buy two wheels or four wheels.
    $80 longboard deck, I have to replace the entire deck after 500 miles because everything wears down and I am riding on loose pieces of maple hardwood.
    $80 for the reverse kingpin trucks, I have to buy two sets of trucks because of wear down.
    $60 for a replacement ESC remote.
    $120 for replacement batteries
    $40 for a new longboard deck in addition to adhesive to reapply/reseal my deck.

      I have 1500km on my Exway Wave. So just get the Exway Flex. Great company. My friend had a 400€ Meepo board. After 1 year it is basically trash. My Exway Wave is still feels as new . Yeah it is currently on 550 so a bit over ur budget. I would highly reccommend it.

    A tiny plastic piece on the inside of my remote that held the spring (that gave the throttle resistance) broke and my board wont respond to the throttle anymore. A new remote is $100?! That's 1/3 the price of my backfire era lmfao. Would rather buy a new board from exway at this point

    • @a_pav
      @a_pav Рік тому +1

      Exact same issue happened to me a couple months ago!! Backfire charges ridiculous prices for new remotes.
      I ended up opening the remote and DIY repairing it myself with superglue... It works fine again but if in any case I'd rather the risk of getting injured than pay for a new one.
      5/10 remote quality 👍

      agreed, mine came with a loose sounding clinking thing. Opened the remote, a tiny broken piece of plastic, didn't affect anything. Took a decent fall (didn't hurt myself so not that bad), remote hit ground and was completely destroyed. $100 for a new one, ridiculous for a piece of plastic

    I like your videos, but this one feels rushed. The road noise and other random noises make the video unwatchable and take away any polish from the video and heavily contrast the nice closeup shots. I know it takes time to record these, I don't expect a script or anything because that takes ages, but I prefer when you record at home using your mic.

      Woo 1 important thing, if you want a cushy ride go look at boards with a soft deck. It will cushion the bumps, cracks & etc. A Exway Flex is around the price range. Lots of wheel options for that board, ie cloud wheel or hollow wheel.
