### 3/5 — App ok won’t let me setup board

*2026-07-26*

App keeps crashing trying to do imu setup

### 5/5 — Complete simplification

*2026-03-08*

Float hub makes the VESC onewheel world a lot more approachable for the masses. Anybody who’s getting into VESC should consider this a mandatory expense for the peace of mind alone.

### 5/5 — The best app for vesc building

*2026-02-24*

At this moment this is the single most helpful vesc building software. Floaty might be right on their tail though

### 5/5 — Saved me!

*2026-01-21*

Get this app if you’re new to VESC! I recently installed a drop in GTV kit and it worked great, until I upgraded my firmware. The firmware upgrade messed with some motor settings causing my board to go all weird on me. So after hours of trying to fix it, I decided to just buy this app and within 5 minutes my board was back to normal. It’s a great tool to have if you want to experiment with settings but not worry about permanently messing something up, in this case, float hub will be there to get it all back to normal! I really hope to see this app grow with additional features to make the vesc life easy going!

### 5/5 — I finally used it

*2025-11-29*

I have bought it in the beginning, but never I had never used it.  After a hardware glitch and a bad charger I was brain burnt after I finally got my board back together.  

I used floathub and it was flawless!  I am back up and running and it was amazing.

### 5/5 — This is a MUST if you are just getting started with VESC.

*2025-11-11*

I was struggling so much with the vesc tool so I decided to try Float Hub. Man I wish I do this as my first step! It took literally two minutes and my issues with the board are solved.

### 5/5 — 10/10 gets better daily

*2025-11-02*

Even myself being very experienced with 2+ wheel Vesc builds this made the jump to balance Vesc as simple as it could be, new features get added very often!

### 5/5 — It works!

*2025-10-07*

I spent hours on Reddit and Facebook groups trying to get this new vesc set up. Mounting frustration and a fear that I spent  nearly $600 to ruin a functioning board and finally decided to spend the money and try this app. In five minutes it was working. This is so worth the money. Just and fyi, it set my directions backwards at first, so pay attention to that test and revert directions if needed.

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2025-09-19*

I'm a total noob to VESC and this could not be easier. Board is a dream to ride. Worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Does all the set up things

*2025-08-10*

Fast and easy motor and IMU set up. Just works and save a ton of time and frustration.
