General Carvon Thread - V3 - V4 SD - V4 XL and future products

Anyone have an update for the Kickstarter EVO backers? I know longhairedboy was supposed to be building them but haven’t heard any updates since the speed drive motors were shipped to him.

do you have reverse setup with ackmaniac FW?

Were you going 35mph forward and it just reversed, threw you off and kept going in reverse?

Seriously let us know if you figure out what went wrong

Indeed I did … But my erpm was set to like 2000ermp to go into reverse like 2mph even if I double brake at 35mph it will never go into reverse so idk what happened my 35mph into full reverse them the board went full throttle into forward as I fell hitting the other side of the curb and making the board airborn all In The matter of like 3 seconds

So 1-10, how painful was that…?

Landing on your ankle 8

Oh damn yeah that sucks… Did you sprain it or you able to just walk it off?

note to self, steer clear from implementing reverse…

he’s in high school so guessing the latter?

has anyone from europe ordered carvons? worried about customs here in ireland charging me 25% of the cost

I’m in the groupbuy. Very simple. If they do put the correct value on the package you are paying import fees and tax. And yes, in that case you can expect to pay an extra 25%.

That’s some bull s$@#! Time to falsify some documents, haha :wink:
