..... Posted April 16, 2021 Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) As titled. I noticed a comment that suggested I could lock my wheel or render it immediately unresponsive during motion? I find this hard to believe but am a little chicken to test the theory. Is this really even possible? I know my trolley and power buttons don't do this while in motion.

So EUC World just sends comnands like all other apps - no way to "hack" the firmware for immedeate stop... 2 Quote

I figured as much. Considering the source of the info I happened across, no surprise here. It aint like this is Seba's first rodeo and he doesnt seem to miss glaring detail like that. Thanks for the prompt reply. Shall I erase this post altogether, as maybe the question itslef arises uneccessary doubt? Edited April 16, 2021 by ShanesPlanet 1 Quote

No, as @Chriull already stated, it's impossible. There is a protection in wheel firmware that doesn't allow to lock the wheel during a ride. In addition, EUC World has its own protection measure that prevents issuing a wheel lock command when speed is at or above 2 km/h. The same applies to wheel/motor off command etc. 47 minutes ago, ShanesPlanet said: Considering the source of the info I happened across, no surprise here.

It's Clairette - a "girl" that is good in blaming other people for her own faults: What is interesting, you can read in user details that she owns Nikola+. But Nikola (as any other Gotway) doesn't even allow for locking/unlocking from the app... 51 minutes ago, ShanesPlanet said: Shall I erase this post altogether, as maybe the question itslef arises uneccessary doubt? No, keep it. The information here may allay the concerns of other users worried about whether accidentally locking the wheel from the app will cause it to shut down during a ride. Answer is simple and clear - no, it won't. 3 Quote
