gyroscope is also be helpful in making a map of sea level change and pitch uploading the it to the aptera/tesla "neural network" as tesla calls their version, for things like saftey, to allow car to change energy spenditure to optimize momentum for optimal driving efficiency when using cruise control and for total self driving if it comes. related to neural networkhttps://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/how-5g-connectivity-will-affect-cars-and-transportation/
The only occasion I have seen for going 35 mph in reverse was in a destruction derby. I don't think the Aptera would fare too well in one. But flipping it would be a crowd pleaser, but really SAD!

Reverse could be (& may already be) limited to whatever speed prevents flipping on smooth clean dry warm pavement, whether that's 8, 10, or 34.5mph.
This is a good point. For safety, reverse should be limited to 8 or 10 mph, or maybe slower.

Take your doctor's advice on that one. If it hurts when you do that, don't do that.
Any three wheeled vehicle (with two in front) is not very stable at 35mph in reverse.
