Full description of the product:

Airwheel's self-balancing electric unicycle scooter is designed and originated in China.

The intelligent one-wheel system from the Airwheel brand automatically balances you.

The built-in gyroscopes and inertia monitor make corrections in engine speed and power hundreds of times per second.

The left and right balance is similar to the technique of cycling - achieved by slightly sloping left or right.

Airwheel is a green product that can easily be taken on the bus or metro, making it a useful commuter tool

As Airwheel's latest masterpiece, this X3 underscores the brand's consistent premium quality at affordable prices and can tackle a variety of terrain challenges with ease.

 

Additional functions

  • Battery: 170Wh Lithium (protection board with SOC equalization)
  • Temperature: -10C ~ 40C
  • Size: 450 * 395 * 160mm

When Airwheel is steered sideways at more than 45 degrees, eg when you turn around, the control system activates the tilt protection.

The engine will stop immediately to avoid injury.

Speed ​​control: To prevent injuries from overspeeding, Airwheel sets a maximum speed.

When the speed exceeds 12km / h, the front end of the foot platform will rise gradually, and when the speed exceeds 16km.h, the foot platform will form an angle of 10 degrees to the leveling surface, making you no longer inclined to speed up.

Loading ...

Low battery protection: When the power level is below 15%, all four lights flash and the buzzer beeps.

The front of the pedal will rise to force you to slow down and eventually stop.

DO NOT try to drive again or you may suddenly lose strength and fall over.

Future Wheel Scarlet

Review: Rated 4.5 / 5 in America. The FutureWheel scarlet is a premium model made for easy portability.

It's a bit more expensive but built to last and capable of carrying over 120 kilos despite its own light weight.

If you often use public transport and want to take it with you, this is the model for you.

Key product facts (provided by the manufacturer):

  • Top speed: 12,5 MPH (20 km / h)
  • Range per charge: up to 10 miles (16 km)
  • Charging time: approximately 1 hour
  • Maximum weight: 147 kg (325 lbs)
  • Max. Climbing grades: unknown
  • Product weight: 27 lbs (12 kg)
  • Full description of the product:

The FutureWheel is handcrafted with 6061 alloy.

Built to last and to stay beautiful, the Scarlet is ultra-portable and can handle loads of 120kg and more!

No handlebar, no handlebar, no need for that handlebar!

Control your FutureWheel with natural leaning movements (similar to the Segway or a Hoverboard) and experience a new way of traveling.

Lean forward to go, lean back to slow down / stop.

The Pure Sine Wave controller with focus designs is more advanced than anything you can find on the market.

With regenerative braking, unparalleled efficiency, eerie silence, and granular torque control, this BLDC controller is the only one in its class.

It takes about 20-30 minutes to get through the FutureWheel and once you get the hang of it you will find that Airwheel riding becomes as natural as walking and chewing gum (only much cooler).

Using some cool features such as Turn AssistTM and Smart SenseTM, the FutureWheel “learns” your movements and performs countless safety calculations every second you ride.

 

Multiple 3-axis accelerometers and gyroscopes provide a superior inertial measurement that enables a driving experience like no other.

When you turn, the FutureWheel's motion learning algorithms detect your intention and provide stability support throughout the ride.

Navigate narrow turns.

It can handle a lot, but if you push the Scarlet near its physical limits, Push BackTM will intervene and push you back, telling you to relax.

When the battery is empty, your Airwheel will gently immobilize by stopping your movement in order to brake slowly and safely, while still safely maintaining your balance.

It is durable and environmentally friendly. It's green. It's an elegant machine!

Due to the portability of the Scarlet, it is also the perfect portable means of transport that fits on the bus, the metro, the train and under your desk at work.
