GT

My buddy 3D printed it.

I had to screenshot the confirmation page and message them on discord.

we're just built different

GT was a joke, especially for the larger riders. Def. worth the upgrade, X7 outclimbs a GT all day long the torque is out of this world. This was at Glacial Hills in Bellaire, awesome trail system.

Etsy! wool!

that happened 5 minutes later 😂

I read they are getting more EV friendly, but haven't tried it. It seems like Karen central.

Glacial Hills in Bellaire is the GOAT. I'm not local, but we make the pilgrimage once a year.

Racing days are behind me, have fun!

If you had to ship the battery separately the easiest way would be to just ship the battery box and controller box connected, very easy to reassemble that way.

Sound mixing was TERRIBLE at the show.

Yes built a python terminal app with codex/claude. it learns your knobs controls pallets and effects, and segment selection through knobs.

Your mic is really bad, there's someone doing construction in the background. Maybe just play, then do commentary over the top when you have a good setup.

Nope, we used it as a giant screen in a Christmas parade and powered it off a single large milwaukee inverter.

One more detail photo of the panels for those that are interested

Needless to say...this thing caught some wooks.

Programming is mostly shaders in xlights, I used a warp layer set to mirror on a lot of them to add interesting symmetry.

Control panel is 3 Octa's and a Pi running falcon player.

Each of the 4 panels is made up of 3 individual matrix panels: seed lights zip tied to black plastic mesh.

dope, nj.

Matrix is LED fairy lights so you can see it from both sides. xLights and FalconPlayer! Unfortunately we hit a tree and it took out one of our panels and messed up some power injection, but still was a big hit in the parade! You can't see in the movie well, but that's a linus with the mouth synced to audio (used a matrix for those).

lmao, small world!

I was the fan guy on the right side!
