Identified controller
Alltrax states: “Verify throttle with meter” Scope: Row headed G-8 (this quote is that row's identifier cell): Stock, Mild and Wild/Extreme controller columns of the row. Alltrax's footnote defines the columns: Stock is no upgrades, Mild is big tires or motor but not both, Wild is big tires and motor or NEVs, Extreme is hunting buggy, EVs and other high performance applications. The guide names the model G, not the electric variant; it lists controllers, so it is applied here to the electric model only. Guide dated 6/23/2016.
