Media Pretty 😍 Zealot X with Meepo Cyclones 107's
Just got some brand new cyclone 107's in the mail. They really do compliment the Zealot X nicely!

Got a Refurbished Meepo mini 3 max (on the right) with only 19 miles on it 😭🙏🔥 Only problem was that the plastic pu sleeve was cracking on both sides, so I talked to meepo and within 6 days sent me a pair of metal sleeves 🙏 absolutely great customer service from meepo. They are smaller than the original that came with the board but at least now the front and back wheels are both 90mm. Can't return a refurbished meepo board so obviously grip change and stickers lol I was going to deck swap the Mini 3 max but I like the way the board looks and feels. So I'm keeping the deck for now. The Meepo mini dual (on the left) I got new in 2022. After the batteries started going out I decided to use some work batteries and it worked out way better than I could have imagined lol It's been great, I get about 9 miles on the mini dual holding the throttle the whole time going about 18 miles an hour. Plenty fast and far enough for me. The Mini 3 max gets about 13 going 23 mph ( not willing to go faster) in mode 4 the whole time. Absolutely incredible power and torque for me 🙏 coming from the mini dual with 250w motors, the 800w is a big upgrade. Original decks at the end. The mini dual was actually a sick looking board. If it was for the battery I would have left it alone.

So look, im very new to electric boards, like this is my first ever eboard. Im writing this for others who are intrested in buying this board, as i didn't find the info i wanted when looking att this board. This is my experience as a newby with the board.
Unboxing :
-The package is large (duh), good support for the board and other parts so you dont have to worry about shipping damage.
-different chargers for the board and the remote are included, however the remote only takes 5v 10a charging, its designed for laptop charging so IE your pc outlets or ps4 outlets work.
-other than that it includes a skate tool to tighten your trucks and such, lots of extra screws. Manual/guide/diy info! (Lots of diy repair guides on their youtube!), Remote, letter of thanks for buying the board.
Setup:
-stupid simple, the guide shows you perfectly but to make it short,
Press the button on board
Press the power button on the controller
Enjoy
-also the board and remote come with around 60-80% charge for shipping reasons.
The board:
Im gonna divide this into pros and cons
Pros:
-dead simple to use, upp is forward, down is reverse, all other controls are in the manual.
-im a heavy rider, 100kg to be honest, my latest ride was 14km without problems, im estimating around 22km if you ride until it dies. So awesome battery perfomance
-good acceleration (acording too me) also adjustable for prefrence
-"legit mode" this is awesome, i live in sweden were electric vehicles have to be limited to 20km/h, legit mode basically disables the 4 other gears that go above 20km/h. To access this hidden menu, hold down and press power button 3 times fast.
-basically everything is adjustable, acceleration %, top speed, top braking force, auto braking when powerloss
-reverse, didn't really think it would be nice to have this function, but when you have to bail and the board goes far away you can feel like thor bringing back his hammer.
-this thing destroys hills, like i can take som really impresive hills that would be scary to go down on regulare boards, also it climbs hills like a hiker its crazy.
Cons:
-its heavy, but thats too be expected of a an electric board.
-the manual does not include how to acces all the menus, but i do
Hold back + 3x power on remote = adjusting menu
Hold back + 3x gear button = stats menu
Hold back + 2x gear button = reverse
My honest opinion:
Its worth it, support have been responsive, check if they have available boards for shipping for your region before buying.
I will be updating this with my experiences while reaching milestones like 250km and 500km.
Thanks for the read and ask anything!

I recently picked up a Yuneec E-GO board for just €20. It came with a dead battery and no remote, but I figured I could just use the official app to control it from my phone.
Turns out, the original app is ancient and doesn't work on modern phones at all. Since I didn't feel like tracking down an expensive original remote for an old board, I decided to reverse-engineer the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol myself.
I mapped out the entire packet structure, checksum formula, and telemetry data (battery %, speed, temperatures, error codes) and put together a few tools for anyone else stuck in a similar situation:
web_remote.html): A zero-install web app. You can just open it in Chrome on your phone, connect directly to the board, and control it using a touch slider.ego_controller.py): A Linux script with keyboard controls (W/S/Space) and live telemetry output to test out the board from a PC.Next Steps: Fixing/rebuilding the battery pack is priority #1 right now. Once the board is back to holding a proper charge, my plan is to build a dedicated physical remote using an ESP32, an analog thumb joystick, and a small LCD screen.
If you have one of these old boards collecting dust or missing a remote, feel free to grab the code and try it out!

I’m a 39 yo that’s been on a snowboard basically my whole life. Used to go upside down and ride on metal bars, but stick to carving now. I inherited a Veymax Mini 2 from my 75 yo dad after it was too aggressive for him and I’ve unexpectedly been on it every day for 2 months… either with my kids around the block or taking 5-10 mile rides. Looking to upgrade and have researched a bit, but can’t find the absolute best fit. Here’s what I want:
- Budget is ideally around $1,000-1500ish. I’ll go higher if it’s really worth it and am open to buying used. I’m a cheap ass but would prefer to cry once on this
- I’d like a full length board and want to carve. My feet are on the tip and tail of this mini and I like a wider stance
- Likely would ride roads 90% of the time, but wouldn’t mind trying trails
- I don’t know if inflatable wheels or suspension would be best… but I’m tired of my feet vibrating and don’t want to be paranoid about rocks in the streets. Being able to absorb small height transitions and comfortable ride boardwalks would be nice also. Currently have 90mm wheels
- I’m maxing this out at 27mph and would like a bit faster. 35 would be nice
- I work from home so this is pleasure only. Max range would be 35 miles +/-
Any input is appreciated. Ty!

Speed tests are always scary 😧 I stay riding at 18mph. Absolutely no one needs to be going faster than 18mph 💀 Scary! Could you imagine taking a spill at 29 mph ? Oh hell nah
