What are the redundant subsystems you mention when you talk about using these in a tour environment? I know as far as boards are concerned there is only one vs 2 and the separate BSA(gyro) but what difference do these make in a tour environment?
I have to say, the torque is better (though much newer gearboxes) the feel is great on the smaller models with lower tyre pressure and steering tuned via the app. I do agree about the E8-2, I found that unrideable! Steering was awful and overall ride I thought to be dangerous.
Thanks for your input, really keen to understand these resilient sub systems before jumping in.

Hi Ramsey, i note your comments in regards to the E8-2 being unrideable.. i recently purchased one to test these for รก possible group Aussie buy and i agree they ride really badly and steering is quite un-intuitive ( Phillip i think you are onto something with your comments that EcoRider dont have the Segway steering mapped into the algorithm on the E8-2) and it does not feel safe on road let alone on bumpy off road applications or ride like an X2 at all ( my shins can attest to that
) You indicate above that you have the smaller model - is that the 19 inch wheel model with the smaller powered motors that Ecorider advertise?? Does that model have a specific model number so i can be sure Im actually looking at the right one you mention? how did you manage to tune the steering via the app.. I also hear that the Eco app only supports Android applications at present?
Be great to hear back from you with clarity on these points.
cheers
Nic
