Electric motors inherently have a high torque upon startup. This is
because 100 percent of the motor's horsepower is always available. Quick
acceleration can cause the rear wheel to lose traction, especially on wet
surfaces. To prevent this, accelerate the vehicle gently by applying even
pressure to the throttle. Once you become familiar with operating your Sparrow,
you can improve your driving range (the distance your Sparrow will travel after
charging the battery pack) by slowly and gently pushing the accelerator pedal so
that you accelerate at an even pace, and by monitoring the amp meter. With
practice you'll develop a balance between accelerating and amp consumption.
