Planetpapi Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Just wondering if you can make it a "rolling billboard". Businesses can take advantage of rolling messages or brand names ( not that you can read them) but would be a great hyper local publicity.Imagine a guy riding a rolling Starbucks light display just outside of Starbucks location. At the height of Segway, there were innovative ideas around Segway marketing. See below. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Westland Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 I tried to do this, but there aren't enough LEDs on the V8 to make intelligible letters. I'd be happy to be proven wrong, but tell me how you did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Westland Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 If you were actually planning on integrating a moving sign board into the V8, you wouldn't want the stock LED strips, rather you would want a signboard under the smoked plastic cover ... something like the boards from AliExpress (below pictured). I really don't know if there is enough space for two of these on each side, but it would be an interesting project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fairing should have been an option, even plain black I bet some people would have wanted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
