If there are no controls built into the tiller, how do you control the operation of the Remigo One?

Making the tiller “dumb”—it’s just an aluminum tube—is actually a smart design decision. It eliminates a potential mechanical and electrical failure point when a small cable needs to connect a rotating handle to the motor (at the base of the shaft).

The RemigoOne has two simple buttons on the top of the unit, next to two LED displays (one for battery level, one for current speed level). From a standstill, press the button pointing forward to start slowly moving forward. Further presses increase the speed to the maximum (10 steps total). You can also hold down the button to rapidly increase the speed level. To slow down, push the button pointing backward, continue pressing until the motor is stopped.

To travel in reverse, from a standstill, press the button pointing backward to start slowly moving backward. Further presses increase the reverse speed to the maximum (10 steps total).

At any speed and travelling any direction, simultaneously pressing both buttons will stop the motor completely.

The same control scheme applies to the 2-button wireless remote.
