Features & Design Details

Self-Balancing Technology

Gyroscopic sensors and accelerometers maintain balance automatically. System responds to rider's body movements for intuitive control. Learning curve typically under 30 minutes for most users.

Lightweight & Portable

At 8 kg, easily carried when needed. Compact size fits in car trunks or under desks. Built-in carry handle for convenient transport between locations.

Dual Motors

Independent 250W motors in each wheel provide balanced power delivery. Allows for tight turning radius and responsive control. Combined 500W total power for reliable performance.

Quick Charging

Smaller battery charges in 2.5-3 hours. Convenient for daily use with charging between sessions. Battery indicator shows remaining power level.

Anti-Slip Foot Pads

Textured rubber surface provides grip in various conditions. Pressure sensors detect rider weight for automatic power engagement. Wide platform accommodates different foot sizes.

Beginner-Friendly

Self-balancing makes learning easier than traditional skateboards. Lower maximum speed provides confidence for new riders. Training mode available for initial practice.

Care & Maintenance Instructions

Regular Maintenance (Weekly)

  • Check wheels for damage or debris
  • Clean foot pads with damp cloth
  • Inspect for loose screws or rattling sounds
  • Test sensors by gently stepping on and off
  • Ensure LED indicators function properly

Battery Care

  • Charge after each use for optimal lifespan
  • Avoid storing with fully depleted battery
  • Store at room temperature when not in use
  • Don't leave charging unattended overnight
  • Use only provided charger

Storage & Handling

  • Store indoors away from moisture
  • Keep away from extreme temperatures
  • Use carry handle to transport (don't drag)
  • Store in upright position when possible
  • Keep out of direct sunlight when stored

Cleaning Guidelines

  • Wipe exterior with slightly damp cloth only
  • Do not use pressure washer or hose
  • Clean wheels to remove stuck debris
  • Dry immediately if exposed to moisture
  • Never submerge or expose to rain

Frequently Asked Questions

Most users can ride comfortably within 20-30 minutes of practice. The self-balancing system makes it easier than skateboarding. Start in a safe, open area with something to hold onto initially. The key is trusting the self-balancing technology and making smooth, gradual movements. Younger users typically learn faster than adults. Good balance and coordination help but aren't strictly required due to the assisted balancing.

The HoverGo Balance can be used outdoors on smooth, dry surfaces like sidewalks, bike paths, and parking lots. However, it has no water resistance and should never be used in wet conditions or on wet surfaces. Avoid rough terrain, gravel, grass, or uneven pavement as the small 6.5-inch wheels are designed for smooth surfaces only. Indoor use on hard floors is ideal. Store indoors and bring inside if weather threatens.

Expect 12-16 km in real-world conditions for most riders. The stated 18 km maximum is achievable with lighter riders (under 60 kg) riding on flat surfaces at moderate speeds. Heavier riders, frequent acceleration/deceleration, and hills reduce range significantly. For daily use, plan trips assuming 12 km range to avoid running out of battery. The quick 3-hour charge time makes it practical to recharge between uses.

Yes, we strongly recommend wearing protective equipment, especially while learning. At minimum, wear a helmet. Wrist guards are highly recommended as falls often result in catching yourself with your hands. Knee and elbow pads provide additional protection. While the self-balancing system helps prevent falls, they can still occur, especially when learning or hitting unexpected obstacles. Local regulations may also require helmets.

The LED indicators show battery level. Most models have color-coded lights: green (full), yellow/amber (medium), red (low). Some units beep when battery is low. Performance may decrease as battery depletes - you might notice reduced speed or responsiveness. Don't wait until completely dead to charge. Charging when battery reaches 20-30% is best for battery health. The 3-hour charge time makes it convenient to charge daily.
