I’m a really light guy and it is cold outside so I was having issues with activating my footpads. I’m in the process of finding a good fix for this, but for this ride, I was going to disable moving faults. I went into VESC (because float control doesn't let me change that), navigated to motor setup because I thought it might be there, it prompted me with something, i clicked yes, and then what’s in the video started happening. I was kinda panicking so instead of restoring to my last backup, I made a new one. Can I find my other backup? If not, how can I fix this? I included a video of what happens. Also i can no longer connect to vesc or any ride app even though i could right after i bricked it.

I’m going to buy Demon Flexmeter Double Sided Wrist Guards, Fox Launch Elite Elbow Guards, and Fox Launch Elite Knee/Shin Guards. What do you think of that selection and do you recommend anything else?

The issue isn’t the sensors themselves. They work fine. The problem is the footpads are concave. I am a light guy (only 115-120 lbs or 52-54.5 kg) and I have the most extreme high arch foot you’ve ever seen, so I rest on the edges of the concave footpad and don’t put enough pressure on the sensors in the middle. I haven’t run into issues while moving yet because the board will stay up if one sensor is activated while moving, but at very low speed or while getting up and activating the board, it will disengage or not engage if both sensors aren’t activated. I‘ve also only had the board for a few days so I may encounter an issue at speed in the future. I was at an intersection the other day waiting for my turn to go, and it took me 4 try’s to engage the board before crossing while cars were waiting for me. I’ve tried different shoes, but all have the same issue.
