Hey all, I've been brainstorming alot about euc's and the future of the hobby. Wanted to start a discussion with y'all on what you would like to see.

The wheel I'm thinking of making when I can afford it is as follows;
For the headlight, add an amber light in the center, that will flash with the warning sound. Make an optional heads up display for the wheel that can mount to a helmet. Also add a vibration to the pedals or shell that goes with the warning sound (I know I'd slow down if I felt vibrations).Ā
I'd also like to make the EUC have two wheels, both with their own hubmotor and independent suspension. I know this will sound unappealing to some, but I'd love to try it out. There's a couple reasons why I'd like to try this
1 - since there would be two motors, they would take less strain, have more torque, and possibly add more speed. This would also be more stable and could stand on its own when on.Ā
2 - with the independent suspension, the wheel would have more traction at all times. Look up the Yamaha niken, and see how both front wheels keep contact even when leaning. That would be the idea here with the two wheels closely packed in an euc shell.Ā
3 - if programmed/designed the right way, I think there should be a higher safety margin as well.

I'd love to hear what y'all think, as well as any ideas you may have, Cheers!
