Between nappy changes ive been tinkering with the 4QD controller, by adjusting the ramp settings and the brake regen setting ive discovered that im not going to need to fit brakes at all as when set correctly the motors can stop the tractor on a sixpence if needed although instant stopping isnt recommended as it shortens the life of the relays, but ive got it just right so it slows down very fast but smooth as soon as the throttle is released.
Ive also covered a made up seat base with foam it just need a vinyl cover.....and then fit the mudguards that arrived a few weeks ago.
