I'm sorry if this nonsense has already been discussed. I looked through the last two pages of post to make sure there wasn't already a thread about the goofiness

I suspect it will very happily go 5-10mph and the digital throttle will make it physically painful to drive. Also the guy casually holding the bare wires in his hands that lead to 50 20v 2-4a lithium ion bombs makes me very nervous. If those are 4a batteries that's 4kw of power sitting there. Let's play around with shorting it through my hand. What could go wrong?

Gotta be a pretty nice bump over stock performance in a Lada.

The Spruce Goose flew its one legendary flight in Long Beach 70 years ago  this week – Daily News

I would make a tiny scale model of this and fly it around with me at the controls.
