    Extending Battery Life

    I bought a dongle for my Haibike to unlock the 20mph speed limit but rarely exceed 20mph.. It's just not worth the extra power consumption to go fast IMO

    You should volunteer to be a good will ambassador for the watt wagon and bike the country coast to coast letting people try it

    Extending Battery Life

    We also thought we'd want/need extra batteries but have decided 50mi. rides (if that) is about all our butts can handle. Unless we want to do overnight camping trips with the bikes we don't need more range.

    Some days are just like that!

    The time and expense required for a type rating and proficiency in a modern mid size jet precludes most serious corporate pilots from being mechanics these days. Just being knowedgeable with FADEC (full authority digital engine control) is mind boggling for even the most experienced wrench...

    Extending Battery Life

    My Yamaha display also has the power meter showing how much the motor is working in five or six bars, I forget which. I get great range if I keep it to two bars of power out showing and try not to go above that

    I think that spektrum "safe" technology doesn't teach people to fly .. AS3X or a gyro is fine though

    There is a definite air of superiority from the spandex roadie crowd that I've noticed. As ritestuff pointed out, the lack of a wave, nod of the head or other polite acknowledgement of other riders is quite obvious where I ride.

    How many miles do you have on your ebike?

    I see it has "powerful tektro hydraulic disc brakes"... Can you save money on this bike by getting weak tektro hydraulic disc brakes? :)

    It would be nice if the right glue for gluing the belt back together was included in a bike at this price level. :)

    Watt Wagons Ultimate Commuter Pro

    I think you can just cut the belt with a sharp knife and use super glue to glue the ends back together once it's past the frame? :)

    Some days are just like that!

    I too was a corporate pilot (retired now).. I thought "how hard can it be?" about RC airplanes.. It was an expensive lesson to learn that yeah, it's really hard. Of course the biggest problem is the reverse sensing. No problem with the plane flying away from me but coming back at me it was...

    Some days are just like that!

    The worst RC airplane students are real scale pilots. I should know, I was one and thought flying RC would be easy

    Having an RC background does help.. brushless motors, lithium cells, electronic speed controllers etc. all part of the dedicated RC enthusiasts repertoire
