Yes they do, and you can do a lot with the controller. I designed brushless motor controls, medical centrifuge, and various stepper motor applications.
You could ride that thing in the house like Uncle Fester did in the Adams Family.
My question simply was, and still is, is the average trials rider in Europe ready to drop coin on this just yet or play it safe with the 2 stroke? Just curious about how this project was driven, by market or something else like pending regulations or subsidies. Perhaps one of our Euro friends will know. Thats it, no spin, not off track.
Well a little off track thought for you about electric cars:
Power grid capacity for the charging of batteries is no where near adequate for mass adoption of the technology.
Such power has to come from somewhere, a lot of it fossil fuels. So more emmisions, mining, or drilling for gas. And, since every energy conversion is done at a loss, the end result is less effeiient.
Now, hydrogen fuel cells are cool. I was in a fuel cell converted BMW prototype my company co-developed. Very nice, and a lot more practical from a fuel logistics point of view than millions of Chevy Volt owners pulling 50A each off the grid to charge their cars when they get home from work.
