Gyro scooters Smart Balance: features and operation

Gyroboard Smart Balance is a new device, which was first intended for recreation and entertainment of people. In some respects, this is a very original kind of toy, riding on which can diversify people's leisure, and a very modern means of rapid transportation.

In fact, Smart Balance is not a company or a company that would produce this product. The fact is that these days gyroboards of various brands are produced practically at the same Chinese plants, the main difference between them is only in their characteristics, which are based on the instructions of a particular customer.

In 2014, when the very first models of these devices appeared on sale, no one knew why they were needed. And therefore, the main task of the leadership of the future brand was to convey the idea of ​​using this product in everyday life.

First, the name “Smart” began to be used in the name, which translated as “smart”, since the gyro scooter uses a special control board that can understand the body movements of a person and which will help him in controlling the device itself. A little later, the word “balance” was also used in the name, as if specifying what exactly this device was smart with. “Smart balance” was the name of the new invention.

Faced with this product for the first time, Tian immediately liked its concept, although no one knew anything about them then, and no one could predict whether investments in Smart Balance would be highly profitable. But Tian realized that the gyro scooter will not be just a new modern toy - he sincerely believed that gyroboards would greatly help all of humanity as a whole.

He believed that this device should be made as accessible as possible for any person and dreamed that all people would one day freely ride, and not move on foot. And in 2015, Tian decided to invest in the mass production of Smart Balance, so it is safe to say that Today, Smart Balance is the brainchild of Miberi.

Many models of modern gyro scooters are distinguished by their unique design, convenient dimensions and not the biggest weight - about 10 kg, although there are even heavier options - they are called "SUVs". The manufacturer also took into account compact foldingto make it as convenient as possible for storage in the house, and for transportation.

The case of this unit has a display, which allows you to control in detail many moments, for example, at what level is the battery charge, how is the trajectory of movement, it can be used to control the front light and brake lights.

Ease of learning is the first plus of the product. There are other benefits.

• Inflatable wheels. They are made from the highest quality rubber.
• The manufacturer provides in many models pretty high suspension - this will allow the rider to boldly move into the road pits and even without any problems get through low curbs.
• Smooth running fixtures.
• Many models of hovercraft can easily move not only on a flat road surface, but even in gravel, tile, low grass and well-rolled snow cover.
• Acoustic system will allow you to listen to your favorite music from your smartphone while traveling.
• Good maneuverability.

Unfortunately, this was not without drawbacks.

Models with large wheels will cost a lot more. But such devices will be less maneuverable and rather heavy, which is not very popular with consumers, since the device is difficult to transport and not very convenient to store. Sometimes too loud sounds that are made when the product starts to work are also not praised by users.

Some gyro scooters are not quite suitable for use by children, since the sensors will fully calculate the weight and height of an adult rider.

Inflatable wheels are both good, because thanks to them you will not feel asphalt roughness, and bad, because such wheels will need to be pumped up often, and there is always a risk of accidentally damaging them.

But the disadvantages of Smart Balance are completely forgotten when you start to ride on it, experiencing amazing impressions.

The first official model was the Wheel - at that time no one was sure of the success of the production and sale of gyro scooters.

After successful sales of the first batch of fixtures, a number of main types of Smart Balance were released, which differed from each other in terms of their wheels, as well as engine power. According to the size of the wheels, modern gyroboards are divided into:

• 6-inch wheelseven children can ride them on high-quality asphalt;
• with 8-inch wheels which will perfectly cope with most of the bumps in domestic roads;
• with 10 inch wheels - almost SUVs.

This device is perfectly suited for use on perfectly flat roads and indoors.This model is very mobile, characterized by amazing lightness, as well as a low suspension, which will not allow this device to overcome high obstacles.

There are 8-inch wheels and powerful engines. With the help of the product it is possible to overcome not very large obstacles, since the body of this model of the gyro scooter is still too low to the surface of the earth.

A powerful device that exceeds all previous models in size. Due to the large wheels, the user will not need to get off the gyro scooter and carry it in his hands if there are potholes and other irregularities along the way. The main characteristic of this model is enclosed in chamber wheels - they significantly reduce the weight of the product and make blows from trips to bumps softer.

One of the most sought after models. A very large device with cast wheels 10.5 inches. Excellent passability in comparison with other Smart Balance products - on this device you can safely drive almost everywhere. The weight of the rider can range from 20 to almost 130 kg.

Exclusive product for movement on any surface. A true modern “SUV”. A characteristic feature is excellent adhesion to any road surface.

It is one of the latest developments. It has inflatable wheels 10.5 inches in size from the best rubber, and this, in turn, will allow you to safely drive through any bumps on modern roads. Powerful type motors make it possible to accelerate this device to 20 km per hour. Thanks to the built-in speakers and bluetooth, your favorite music will accompany you while driving. A catchy design will not leave anyone indifferent.

In addition, all controls in this product are on a special handle. The control sensors are located closer to the wheels. The process of movement and control is carried out by tilting the handle in the right direction.

Any present Smart Balance product has its own series number - this is a special code, which is indicated on a special sticker with a guarantee. You can check whether the original is in front of you or not on the website of an authorized dealer.

Fake devices can often shut themselves off for no apparent reason, respond very slowly to the commands given by the rider, cause difficulties in management and even sometimes can drop inexperienced users from the platform. On the these devices are difficult to maintain balance, so the rider gets too tired. Rubber on wheels, even with high-quality fakes, will quickly wear out, it will instantly crack in frosty weather.

The battery will be weak enough to hold even 100% of the charge, and the available characteristics will be significantly inferior to the declared ones. There are many methods that will allow you to evaluate the originality of the device without a serial number.

• With a thorough inspection, you need to pay attention to the quality of the paint, to the visual density of the tires - there should be no visible defects on the product.
• When assembling the original Smart Balance scooter, steel screws with a semicircular cap are used. They are of high quality and do not break if you start disassembling the product.
• The mass of a real hovercraft should be exactly as it was stated by the manufacturer.
• There is an unpleasant odor from fake products, and the original devices smell like brand new rubber.

In order for the new device to please you with its trouble-free operation for as long as possible, you just need to buy an original device and strictly follow all the rules for its daily use.

Sometimes the device in question suddenly starts to behave in a rather strange way: it jerks while riding, starts to accelerate very slowly or too quickly, and gives false information. The problem sometimes is the failure of existing programs.

You can start the reboot on the gyro scooter only after you carefully read its instructions. Next, proceed as follows:

• the gyro scooter is placed on the table - it is necessary that the device processor remembers this position as “0”;
• then the button responsible for turning on the device is gently clamped, the product controller will squeak loudly;
• the button is released, you should wait until all the lights stop flashing;
• disconnect the device with a light touch of a button;
• after all these actions, the gyro scooter turns on, and you can check whether the reboot was successful and whether everything in the product works fine.

You can remotely restart the hoverboard yourself. Only instead of the power button, you should hold the bell-shaped icon and in the form of an open lock on the existing remote control. As soon as an audible signal sounds, the device turns off, and then turns on again, and its operation is checked.

The battery life and travel distance will directly depend on the correct charging of this product.

Usually gyroboards have a certain range - approximately 18–20 km on a single charge. But the battery starts to discharge quite quickly if you ride this device in the cold, if you climb it uphill for a long time or move only along the road with obstacles. To constantly monitor the level of charge, a number of indicators are present on the product. At 20%, these indicators immediately turn red, and if the critical discharge level is reached (up to 10%), the red signal already flashes sharply and is supplemented by an audio signal.

If, at such a low charge, you continue driving on the product, the protection system will automatically be able to turn it off and put the unit on wheels. To unlock, you have to fully charge the battery.

For high-quality charging of the device should:

• use only the “native” device for charging;
• first connect the power supply to the outlet, and after the green indicator appears, you can connect the charger itself, and a red light should appear on the sensor;
• at the end of the process, you need to get the plug from charging and disconnect the power supply itself;
• during storage of the gyro scooters, they also need to be recharged periodically (approximately once in 2-3 months), in order to prevent the battery from changing quickly, it is better not to bring the gyro scooter to a deep discharge - below 30%.

Calibration is a fairly easy manipulation to balance the device, implying the proper configuration of all sensors. The quality of their full-fledged work will directly depend on the simplicity of managing this tool, as well as driving safety and its comfort.

The control panel will help to balance, if it is included in the product package. You should click here the settings button, which is located in the middle, and then hold down the bottom button at the same time as it. As a result, the device will reset the password that you set to the initial factory settings.

You can also configure the gyro scooter correctly and manually.

• First, make sure that the battery is 100% charged - in this case, the indicator glows green.
• The device turns off.
• It is placed on a regular table.
• All available sensors must be in parallel. The most common cause of incorrect calibration can be the unevenness of the surface where the gyroboard is.
• For 5 seconds, the power button is clamped.
• After the signal sound or light of the motion sensor - this button is released.
• After 10 seconds, the gyro scooter must be turned off.
• Immediately it turns on again, and you can try to ride on it.

The owners of these funds believe that their purchase is a profitable purchase, noting the high quality of workmanship and functionality. Many people like a huge selection of all kinds of colors, as well as the fact that these devices can be used for work and entertainment.

However, the minuses of the segway are also called, for example, the fact that the battery lasts only a couple of hours, instead of the three stated in the instructions. Also, many are annoyed by the loud sound from the speakers and the noise of the charger.

Also, users do not like the fact that you can’t drive through puddles and in heavy rain on the device, as water through the holes for the wheels can get on the boards, and this can lead to the death of the scooter.
