Frequently Asked Questions

Is the throttle functional?

Yes, but the throttle is controlled by software and has to be switched off to operate on the roadway.

Why does my battery level fluctuate "suddenly"?

This is a natural occurrence that is referred to as "voltage sag" of battery capacity as a result of being "loaded" by drawing a current from the battery.
