Try an Evolve skateboard control. Also google problems with those boards. It’s frequently reported to do all sorts of things. I’m not sure why onewheel is singled out. Any electric skateboard is equally dangerous. Even if the control doesn’t make it easy to over apply brakes, cutting power when going at anything over 12mph is very likely to cause “eating it” if in bad stance. Definitely going to be a problem over 15 if speed wobbles don’t already cause the “eating it” Braking without proper body posture is a recipe for disaster on an electric board. At least one wheels kindof force proper body posture.

As a onewheel owner, this response is missing something very important: because it has one wheel, it doesn't matter, even a little, what kind of "posture" you're in when the board blips. You go flying, end of story. Electric boards with > 1 wheel all have some degree of natural kinetic stability.
