Drive Sytem: The 4WD Direct Drive system has been replaced with a 2WD street gear drive system for better acceleration and braking performance, with similar free rolling ability, and improved clearance.
Electronics: We went from 2x 50A ESCs to a single, more powerful 120A ESC, meaning less parts to worry about. We replaced the Molicel P42A to Samsung 50S cells in the same 14S3P configuration. This means similar performance, but an extended range and capacity, from 652Wh to 777Wh. The new 170KV motors also allow of a higher top speed of 38Mph.
Wheels: Now, the board comes by default with MAD Wheelz V2 105mm wheels instead of the 95mm wheels from the X3.
Deck: The deck, while having a similar look, has been improved, reinforced and is now coated in a beautiful white finish.
Details: The board is now fitted with much better bushings, and comes with a CNC footstop included in the box for better control and foot positioning.
Reliability and Pricing: The changes from a 4WD system with 2 ESCs, to 2WD system, meant we could reduce the risk of issues overtime, but also lower the price, even though the overall performance is much stronger on the new X3 GEAR.
