To beat that Castle would need to bring something new to the table (some are far-off)
-better programmability
-more power/reliability
-smaller size
-100% waterproof
-attractive display for handlebars
-data logging
-adjustable dc voltage (run 36v off 72v battery with flip of switch)
-gps
-temperature monitoring/cutoff (controller and motor)
-on-the-fly current/speed adjustment
-built in switch/pre-charge circuit
-voltage sources for lights, etc.
-vivid flames and raunchy green monsters |
you forgot updatable as programming improves
Work because i gotta, play because i wanna
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
