Vitalwalk Apollo 11 Ultra
Full-deck walking pad with 735W brushless motor (1 CHP, S1 continuous), 12% auto incline, 43×18" belt, 350 lb capacity. Same motor as Max (my current value pick) - hands-on tested, $30 less.
735W brushless motor, 1 CHP continuous, 12% auto incline, 43×18" belt.
Warranty
Motor
Explicitly listed as "3.0HP Brushless" in Amazon title and product specifications. Motor tested for 200,000+ impacts per brand claims.
Price
The Amazon listing (B0DHVRR2MT) went dead on 2026-08-02, so the $539.99 list and $512.99 sale seen 2026-04-28 no longer hold. The pad is sold brand-direct only now.
Stars
Incline
6-level auto incline (0–12%). Controlled via app or remote.
Horsepower
Listed as "3.0HP" across all sources. Amazon tech details label it "Maximum Horsepower." No continuous/CHP distinction made by the brand.
Official physical manual (V5.0, provided directly by Vitalwalk) and CDN manual (V7.0) both list "Rated power: 735W" and "Peak horsepower: 3.0Hp." CHP = 735 / 746 = 0.99. Input voltage 110–120V. Max sibling (TM11GY) motor label confirms same 735W continuous (model RT-082342, S1 duty, Thermal Class F, 3200 RPM) - same motor, different peak HP marketing.
Shock
Vital+ shock absorption: 7-layer belt with quad-deck honeycomb cushions. Brand claims 60% joint impact reduction.
Decibels
Marketing claims "35dB" in product bullets and "<40 dB" elsewhere - figures are inconsistent and unverified. Using the more conservative 40 dB. Has a mute button to silence beeps during calls.
Easy Lube
Full-deck design with no side-rail gap, but manual says belt can be lifted 2–3 inches for tube applicator access. Not the worst case, but harder than pads with exposed rails. Every 3 months or 100 miles, 10ml silicone oil.
App
FitShow app via Bluetooth FTMS. Also compatible with Zwift and Kinomap. Syncs with Apple Health and Strava.
Model
My hands-on testing unit - I opened this and a CyberPad side by side. Vitalwalk's motor is 735W / 0.99 CHP with an explicit S1 continuous duty rating, vs CyberPad's 550W / 0.74 CHP with no duty rating listed. That's 33% more sustained power. The belt is noticeably thicker, the motor chamber has real ventilation (CyberPad runs warm in an enclosed cavity), and there's a physical circuit-breaker for thermal protection. Same 735W motor across all Apollo 11 walking pads - Max shares this exact drivetrain.

Product Description
Full-deck walking pad with concealed 3.0HP brushless motor, 6-level 12% auto incline, 43"x18" belt, 350 lb capacity, and vertical storage. Features Vital+ shock absorption (7-layer belt with quad-deck honeycomb cushions, brand claims 60% joint impact reduction), ambient LED lighting, FitShow app with Bluetooth FTMS (also compatible with Zwift, Kinomap; syncs with Apple Health and Strava), 15-second absence auto-pause for safety, and mute button for Zoom calls. Ultra-slim ~9" profile with 4-wheel two-way mobility for under-furniture storage. No assembly required. Can run continuously for 10 hours.
Positioned as the mid-tier in the Apollo 11 lineup: larger belt than the Elite (43x18 vs 40x16), higher max speed (5 vs 4 mph), but lower incline (12% vs Elite's 15%). Heavier at 86 lbs. The Max (TM11GY) upgrades to 20% incline and 400 lb capacity (same 735W motor - 3.5HP vs 3.0HP is peak marketing only).
Motor Details
- Peak HP: 3.0HP (listed as "Maximum Horsepower")
- Brushless: Confirmed - "3.0HP Brushless" in Amazon title and product specs. Comparison table omits "Brushless" for Ultra column (data entry inconsistency on Vitalwalk's part; listing itself confirms brushless). Error code E02 in manual is "Motor open circuit" (no carbon brush reference), consistent with brushless.
- Rated wattage: 735W (confirmed by both manuals V5.0 and V7.0)
- CHP derivation: 735W / 746 = 0.99 CHP. The 3.0HP advertised is confirmed peak; actual continuous output is just under 1 CHP.
- Input voltage: 110–120V (both manuals)
- Amps/RPM/Thermal class: Not in Ultra manuals. Max sibling (TM11GY) motor label confirms same 735W motor: model RT-082342, S1 continuous duty, Class F / 155C, 3200 RPM, Shenzhen Ruoteng Technology. Same motor, different peak HP marketing.
Manual Sources
Two manual versions exist for TM05GY:
- Official physical manual (V5.0) - provided directly by Vitalwalk (strongest provenance). Spec table: 735W rated, 3.0Hp peak, 110–120V, 0.6–5.0 mph, 12% max incline (6 sections), 350 lbs, 86/98.1 lbs net/gross, deck area 18x43", foot rail 3.3", product size 47.8x24.4x9.3", packaging 52.95x28.15x10.63". APP: Fitshow; Zwift; Kinomap. Warranty: "All components under warranty for 1 year." Ambient light speed zones: Green 0.6–2.0, Orange 2.1–3.0, Red 3.1–4.0 mph.
- CDN manual (V7.0, dated 2025-08-29) - downloaded from brand's Shopify CDN. Same specs; additionally lists Frame 5 years / Motor 2 years warranty breakdown and foot rail ~3.4".
Both manuals confirm identical core specs. Minor discrepancies: foot rail 3.3" (V5.0) vs ~3.4" (V7.0/Amazon); warranty wording differs (V5.0 simpler "1 year all components" vs V7.0 tiered). The more generous figure - 24 months on the motor, per the Amazon listing and the V7.0 manual - is the one to rely on.
