  • Awesome!!!

    Have you try it on a hill yet?

    How is it going up a hill?

    Thanks.

  • The controller is set to 100Amps max, so it pulls up hills easily. I have a very steep hill going up to my house and it can carry 20mph up it unassisted.

  • Thanks, I updated the info on the video to answer your questions.

see all
