I have the V1 and liked the freedom it provided except for the fact that I was always steering it, bought the V2 and what a nice surprise, it goes straight and way more power, I play 18 holes and its still shows all 5 lights , very happy, the only thing I don't like is the charging port on the remote is on the side and my thumb is constantly touching it which means very soon that cover will be gone , it should be on the front not the side
