What a great and fair review. Thank you Fred for all the super valuable feedback. We did mellow out the W concave on both ends, but you are correct, we should have considered riders who like a narrower stance, and mellow it out in the center as well. That's a very good point. We like to have it stronger in the center again to lock your feet on both sides, but only for that wider stance. For the DKP turning radius, we did test it along dkp boards, and on soft bushings with a looser setup on the N3, we were able to achieve a very similar turning radius, but of course, at the detriment of stability at high speed (but all good with some practice).. But you are the DKP king, so if you feel like it's not there yet, then we can continue to work on it. Also, we do offer a 6a charger by default with the Elite version of the board, but maybe for future series we'll consider offering it by default for the standard models too. If a customer wants the 6A charger but for the standard N3, they can message us and we'll see what we can do. But all in all, hearing your heavy enthusiasm about our new ESC, really made us happy as well. Next step, is improving our bushings. Thank you and see you at Esk8con!
Just an FYI to save other people time. I ordered a Nomad N3 a few days ago, reached out to their support to see if they would send me the better charger. They offered a $20 coupon on a $180 charger.
@@projectmayhem2330 I agree. One trend I see in the near future is to make two sizes of popular boards. The Nomad is a winner for sure but the only thing stopping for me from recommending this to my taller friends is the length. A 42" option would be amazing. All the same specs. Only the length of the deck would be different.
If you guys haven't figured it out yet, Acedeck has a pretty amazing line-up of electric skateboards and accessories. Their fit and finish is second to none and their performance to price ratio is the best in the business. With the upgrade ESC and improved throttle response and curve, you would be hard pressed to find a better production board. They have boards to fit just about any niche. I can pretty much buy any board on the market and I have two Acedeck boards, the X1 and X3. MADESK8 approved!
@@slargo83The N3 Elite comes with a fast charger by default :) And you can purchase this charger for the standard version of the N3 or other Acedeck boards.
@@slargo83 we have a 10A faster charger in testing as we speak. Not 15A, as we believe that is pushing the limit before it impacts battery health and lifespan, but 10A should satisfy many of our riders.
I like all the changes you made to the board to customize it to your liking. Not a huge fan of w concave either, but looks like an amazing board for the price. Finally premium performance in the sub $2k price point
Looks awesome; bummer they don't make the tyre I like, I prefer a knobby AT tyre for offroad riding I have found they are far better for grass and gravel control. I am sure there will be more amazing products from these guys over the next year or two, might wait and see what they do.
an other great review video! But i still don't know what to buy next I'm currently looking for a new board - Acedeck N3 or Lorentz MAJOR, it's a hard decission, both boards are looking great. Which of both you would take (if the money dosen't matter) I'm looking for a high quality long range board. Mostly i'm riding on streets an light gravel - no real offroad. An important factor for me is also that the company will still exist in 3 years. The comany of my current board no longer exists and as soon as the company was shutting down my battery died.... and there is no chance to fix this issue.
Hello IM NOTORIOUS IRBY IN NEWARK NEW JERSEY BRO NICE BOARD 🛹 DID YOU EVER GET AFLAT ON THIS IM JUST WONDERING BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST BOARD WITH INNER TUBE &TIRES😅 NO DISRESPECT BRO JUST ASKING THANK U
@@RicoWorldPeace If a rider wants more than 60km range, theres no going around having a big battery! But the clearance is still enough, and we made sure to make the board feel lightweight under your fit. We have the Nomad N1 2in1, if you want a similar for factor but much smaller battery and street wheel compatibility.
Couldn't you just take the bottom bar out of the front handle. No not to argue with you but in your video it looks like that stick is stuck in the hole part in the truck, not the handle 👍
You pointed out everything I wanted to know, in particular the N1 ESC fix! All of your reviews are crazy good, but this is probably one of the best reviews I've ever seen! Thx👍🤙
Man Acedeck is the king of affordable fun boards!! I have the Stella S3 and even though its a cheaper board its been running great and getting me outside for a year now! I have lost like 30 lbs because im more active and I Cant explain how much i love Esk8 and how its keeping this IT Guy who sits on his butt all day out side whenever i can to do something actually physical!
Moving to Florida and discovering electric skateboards was what changed me from being more of an indoor video game and anime binge watcher to out and about on my electric skateboards. Could eventually evolve into one wheel and electric unicycles and the Acedeck nomad N3 is my 1st Eskate in 2 years.
Nice man! I really dig everything about that board 8 just think i may get scared if i floor it on s+ lol i just started riding regularly in S+ on my stella s3 after one year of riding lol@willlawson6126
How would you compare this to the Interstellar and Endurance? I know they're not really the exact category (the Interstellar anyhow), but if you can draw some sort of comparison.
It can't fit street wheels because it's a long range AT board lol, not because of the clearance. It has AT gear drive ratio. Like a Lacroix or a Lorentz.
@@pierro91370bro thats a different gear drive, with a different gear ratio, the street 2in1.. I have it on the Nomad N1 2in1.. Good ratio for street wheels, and only small AT tires. I haven't tested it on 5inch tires but apparently bigger than that and the torque gets pretty weak.
Very professional review ❤ But......would You recomend nomad N3 over lorentz major or they are two completely difierente styles for riding ?? I like Your movements on boards, tryimg to get closer to it, but I would like to buy something I like by watching Your reveiews, Lorentz or Nomad.....🤔 that is the question. Or both some day....
@@kiwimon3204 the friend really wanted my Begode EXn High Speed version that I won in a raffle. We did the trade shortly after my original comment. This Nomad N3 is extremely impressive. It can carve around pretty good once you experiment with a good bushing setup but it is a traditional kingpin set up so the carving can only be so steep. It is more of a performance/race board which is not a bad thing..... It's just meant more for speed and cruising.
@@willlawson6126cool 👍🏽. I've got a EX.N HS too. 2yrs riding it. Love it. This Nomad N3 interests me. Seen 2 of them at a group ride. But I may buy my 1st EUC suspension wheel? Commander Pro Max 4000wh. 4000watt. 50s. I can only afford one toy for now. Wish I could buy both 😁
Fantastic review. Very detailed and on point. I ordered mine! Could you please send me the bushing size of riptides you’re running? We are about the same weight. Cheers!
Hi @ESK8UNITY very nice video thank you. I was just about to order X1 when N3 came up, but is there BIG difference between Moli 1305Wh and Samsung 1554Wh? I would like to have bigger range. (now I have Meepo Huriccane) but is it difference? I hear Moli is better but how much range would I get from Samsung compare to these Moli? 5-10 km? (100Kg rider, Agresive style). and one more question, why they don't have tubeless wheel in N3?
Awesome, thanks Fred! So what are your thoughts on going with the std version vs the Elite version? Their rep says there's only a 700g (1.55 lb) difference between them. I would've guessed more of a difference with the added capacity of the larger capacity Samsung cells and the bigger motors (?).I wonder why they use the 2 different motors? I was actually hoping the std version was lighter, that would've made it an easier decision. At 1.55 difference, that added range and more the efficient motors (I'm guessing?), that makes the decision harder given the $300 price difference.
I'm trading 1 of my EUC'S to a friend for his N3 with just under 20 miles on it. Haven't had an Eskate in 2 years and the last one i had was the Eovan GTS Carbon Super.
Im using the x1 at the moment. And love it . But glad it's running belts because i have the options of 200mm pneumatics or my dad bods . And i love that old school feel on the road . Definitely astep up from my tynee Explorer which i gifted to my best friends family. I get what you're saying about the sudden catch up after idling. But as my only board not a problem at all . I creep up on the wheel anyway. Always have.
Hey Fred, Looking at this board and the meepo vader. Are the gear drives louder or quieter compared to the Onsra gear and/or belt? For reference, i have DD onsra board.
I really like it but no street wheel option. ACEdeck say get the N1 with the element gear drive if you want street wheels but the N3 is just so much better in every way. Would be good if they also offered the N3 with the element 2 in 1 gear drive.
Just so you know, the N1 has been upgraded with improved firmware and better ESC as well, so it's just as smooth as the N3 now! On paper, it only has half the range, but still enough especially on street wheels. Street wheels on the N3 wouldn't be ideal due to clearance issues with the big battery.
We love our handle! Super easy to roll that heavier board around, attach front lights, and protect the front end of the board. But we also made it easy to remove by attaching it to the truck themselves, and not to the deck under the baseplate.
@@yourfriendlyneighboorhoodf1833 The board he reviewed is the version with 4500 watt motors. The pro claims 7500 watt motors. So if this one is already fast as hell, what is the pro version like?
@@aratay3117 this is a big misconception in the eskate community. The 7500 watt motor will perform the exact same as the 4500 watt motor. Technically, if you drained the entire battery going up a steep mountain, the 7500 watt motor will be cooler to touch, but honestly it doesn't make a difference. The only difference in the pro version is the bigger battery. The motors also cost about the same, so it's more a marketing gimmick. If you want more battery, get the pro. Cheaper price, get the non-pro. Performance is the same aside from battery. Also, speed isn't determined by the amp but the gear ratio and wheel size. Another misconception within e-skate. The bus / phase current more affects torque which is acceleration. And it's the same between the pro and non pro board. There are physics calculators you can google search to determine top speed of a board if you want to verify yourself.
@@justsomeguy4319 it did annoy me at first but I got completely used to it. But im not switching between 5 boards a week like Fred (i wish). I guess im in sync with the remote now. Love the board, especially on Boas.
It's a long range, big battery board with a 4.0 gear ratio for maximum torque on AT wheels from 5inch and higher :) That ratio, and board type wouldn't work with street wheels. But we do have the Nomad N1 2in1, the N3s smaller brother, with a small gear drive for street wheels and AT tires up to 150mm.

@@slargo83The N3 Elite comes with a fast charger by default :) And you can purchase this charger for the standard version of the N3 or other Acedeck boards.

33.1 mph uphill is absolutely mad. I struggle to hit 32 mph on a perfect surface. I need this board when I upgrade eventually. Acedeck is amazing
I got my n3 in start of july. It's absolutely mad. The torque is so crazy!
Every review makes me want that board lol keep it up

Think the BKB 150x50 tire would be too small for clearance? Love that tire
