3. Operating Principles

3.1 How IO HAWK Works

The IO HAWK uses digital electronic gyroscopes and acceleration
sensors to control balance and motion intelligently, depending on the
user's center of gravity. The device also uses an intelligent control
system to drive the brushless motors that are located within the wheels.
The IO HAWK has a built-in inertia dynamic stabilization system that
can help assist with balance when moving forward and backwards, but
not while turning.
TIP -To increase your stability, you must shift your weight in order to
overcome the centrifugal force during turns, especially when entering a
turn at higher speeds.

Step 1: Getting Started - Take your IO HAWK out of the box and place
it flat on the floor. Press and hold the power button, located on the front
