“Anyone else have the issue where it will decelerate as soon as you start to incline? I don’t mean a crazy incline either, like if I try to go up a small hill it automatically slows down and eventually stops.”

This is normal to any type of machine. Inclination requires torque and Segway scooters have their own maximum torque they can produce. Even though a scooter has 18 MPH maximum top speed. It does not need or require the maximum torque to maintain this speed, on the other hand, Payload and rider weight, inclination acceleration, these requires torque. For your case, the G30LP has a maximum torque of 700 W (0.7 kW)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not at all. It feels very zippy up some pretty significant inclines that I ride over every day while commuting; the kind of inclines that slow bikers to a crawl. I'm not sure what that other person is talking about with needing to kick uphill. That never happens. I see plenty of other people also riding this model or the older one and no one kicks uphill. You should probably get your scooter looked at to see if it needs service. I routinely hit 16-17mph going up 15 - 20 degrees inclines.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it doesn't do well with inclines, you have to kick up hills.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have the same issues..it is very frustrating...others with same model say theirs does not. I wonder if some have a defect. Very dissappointing in this...I can't even go up handicap ramp incline.
