4.5 Joystick

The joystick of the e-ﬁx can be compared to a ﬁctional combination of steering wheel,

clutch and gas pedal of a car. Basically all of the wheelchair driver‘s control commands

are directed to the e-ﬁx wheels by the joystick. That‘s why driving the e-ﬁx takes some

practice. Please use the lowest speed when you drive the e-ﬁx the ﬁrst couple of times.
