Flipsky VX5 IP68 Waterproof Remote Controller: The Ultimate Game-Changer for Electric Surfboards & E-Skateboards

Flipsky VX5 IP68 Waterproof Remote Controller: The Ultimate Game-Changer for Electric Surfboards & E-Skateboards

If you’re an avid electric surfboard or e-skateboard enthusiast, you know the frustration of a subpar remote controller: flimsy waterproofing that fails mid-ride, short battery life cutting adventures short, or imprecise throttle control ruining your flow. But what if there was a remote that checks every box—durability, performance, convenience, and reliability—even in the harshest water environments? Meet the Flipsky VX5 IP68 Waterproof 5000mAh Remote Controller—the must-have accessory that’s redefining how we ride electric water and land gear.
Whether you’re carving waves on your electric surfboard or cruising city streets on an e-skateboard, the VX5 isn’t just a remote—it’s your command center for seamless, safe, and thrilling rides. Let’s dive into why this remote is topping search lists for water sports lovers and why you need to add it to your gear today.

1. IP68 Waterproof Rating + Floating Design: Fear No Water

Waterproofing is non-negotiable for electric surfboard remotes—and the VX5 takes it to the next level with an IP68 rating (the highest waterproof standard for consumer electronics). This means it’s fully sealed against dust, dirt, and prolonged submersion in water—no more panicking if your remote slips into the ocean or lake.
But here’s the game-changer: its internal large-cavity design lets the remote float on water—even without a buoyancy rope. No more losing your remote to the depths! Whether you’re wiping out on a wave or accidentally dropping it, the VX5 stays afloat, ready to be retrieved. It’s built for real-world adventures, not just lab tests.

2. 5000mAh Battery: 20 Hours of Non-Stop Riding

Nothing kills a ride faster than a dead remote. The VX5 solves this with a high-capacity 5000mAh battery that delivers up to 20 hours of continuous use per charge. That’s enough for back-to-back surf sessions, all-day e-skateboard cruises, or weekend adventures without hunting for an outlet.
Plus, it features a built-in high-precision battery meter, so you’ll always know exactly how much power you have left—no guesswork, no mid-ride surprises. Charge it once, and ride worry-free.

3. GPS/Beidou Positioning + High-Res Display: Precision at Your Fingertips

Accuracy matters when you’re pushing speed limits or tracking your progress. The VX5 comes with integrated Beidou, GPS, and GNSS positioning modules for pinpoint speed measurement and location tracking. Pair that with a high-resolution display screen, and you’ll get crystal-clear real-time data: current speed, average speed, max speed (up to 50.2 Mph!), total distance, riding time, and even the number of satellites connected.
The display is easy to read in bright sunlight or low light, and with support for Chinese, English, and Russian, it’s accessible for riders worldwide. GPS automatic time calibration ensures your data is always synced—no manual adjustments needed.

4. Ergonomic Design + Precise Control: Comfort for Long Rides

Riding for hours shouldn’t leave your hands sore. The VX5 features a compact, ergonomic design with thoughtfully laid-out buttons that fit naturally in your palm. The high-precision encoder chip delivers smooth, responsive throttle control—whether you’re easing into a wave or accelerating on your e-skateboard.
Need to attach accessories? The bottom of the remote has built-in M6 nuts, so you can easily mount flashlights, action cameras, or other gear—customize it to your ride style.

5. Powerful Software: Modes, Data, and Customization

The VX5 isn’t just hardware—its software is packed with features to elevate your experience:
  • 3-speed modes (L/M/H): Adjust throttle sensitivity for beginners, casual rides, or high-speed thrills.
  • 20-speed gears for surfboard mode: Fine-tune your acceleration to match wave conditions.
  • One-key mode switching (for FTESC ESCs): Instantly switch between normal mode, tank turnaround mode, hill-climbing off-road mode, and traction control mode—perfect for versatile riders.
  • Data logging: Store up to 11 riding records and 20 ESC fault alarm codes, so you can track progress or troubleshoot issues.
  • Firmware online upgrade: Keep your remote updated with the latest features and improvements—no cables required.
  • Throttle customization: Preset throttle curves and response times to match your riding style.

6. Universal Compatibility: Works With Your Gear

The VX5 plays well with most electric surfboards and e-skateboards, supporting popular control protocols like VESC, FTESC, FOCBOX, and PPM. It works with single or dual-channel ESCs (no forward/reverse switching needed, but compatible with all ESCs) —so you don’t have to replace your existing gear to upgrade your remote.
