Firmware modification tools for Onewheel

What is this Onewheel Firmware Hack?

Basically you can access the Factory Mode of your Onewheel when connecting via bluetooth and nRF app or website and writing commands to your fm controller firmware to calibrate your hall effect sensors, tilt or BMS / Battery pairing.

  1. Level out your WTFs or any other Rails digitally to use MISSION without custom shaping and calibrate your FM controller without the need of a „hardware“ tilt kit. You can also recalibrate boards with a bad IMU calibration coming directly from the factory.
  2. Pairing different batteries and versions of BMS in your board
  3. Downgrade or Upgrade the firmware on your Onewheel XR
  4. XR-mode on PINT X
  5. Onewheel GT bricking („Corrupt Memory“) is solved when replacing your battery
  6. Works for all FM Boards (Plus, XR, Pint, PintX, GT) except the V1.

Tools you need

The Float Effect

THE BEST ONEWHEEL MOVIES : A OVERVIEW

There are a lot of new onewheel films / movies recently published. Here you will find an overview of my personal fav’s. From onewheel trickery and stunts, festivals over polished onewheel commercials to really cinematic onewheel films with great story and a onewheel rap video for the movie PUSHBACK. There is a lot stuff to explore and watch.

One onewheel film really stands out and impressed me in mostly every category. Storywise as well as the perfect execution from editing and sound design makes this FILM stand out. This film has everything and it’s on top with some of the best skateboard and snowboard films. It’s about our passion about THE FLOAT EFFECT – with the perfect title as well. The Onewheel Family deserves it. 😉

THE FLOAT EFFECT – A ONEWHEEL MOVIE


Here are some more gems in the onewheel movie world to watch. Just when the weather is bad or just to get stoked again, or for the new onewheel rider to get a feel to try it out. But be aware it’s addictive!

A big thank you to André Neumann from nthirteen.
