Abstract: Techniques control a utility vehicle. Such techniques involve storing electric power in a lithium battery of the utility vehicle. Such techniques further involve operating a motor controller of the utility vehicle in a normal mode in which the motor controller provides electric power from a lithium battery of the utility vehicle to an electric motor of the utility vehicle to turn one or more ground engaging members of the utility vehicle. Such techniques further involve, after operating the motor controller in the normal operating mode, operating the motor controller in a walkaway mode in which the motor controller configures the electric motor to provide braking torque.

Abstract: A high strength polymer-based cartridge has a polymer case with a mouth, a neck, a shoulder below the neck, and a body below the shoulder and having a case thickness (Tc). The body has a flat portion comprising a pull thickness (Tp), and a dip, closer to the shoulder than the flat portion and comprising a dip thickness (Tb). The cartridge can also include an insert attached to the polymer case opposite the shoulder. The insert can have a flat section contacting the flat portion and comprising an insert wall thickness (Ti), and a bulge engaging the dip to maintain the insert on the polymer case. Tc, Tp, Tb, and Ti are related by Tp+Tb+Ti=Tc. These variables also have ranges where Tp equals approximately 15-33% of Tc, Tb is greater than or equal to Tp, and Tc is a function of a loaded projectile.

Abstract: A cartridge has a polymer case with a mouth, a neck having a neck thickness (Tn), a shoulder, and a body having a case thickness (Tc).

Abstract: A high strength polymer-based cartridge casing can include an upper polymer component, molded from a polymer. The upper component has a first end having a mouth, at least a wall between the first end and a second end of the upper component opposite the first end, an overlap portion extending from the wall near the second end. An upper insert is included and has a first end and an opposing second end, a molded area disposed approximate the first end, that engages the overlap portion to join the upper polymer component and the upper insert, and an insert engagement area disposed approximate to the second end. Further, a lower insert has a front end and a back end, an upper insert engagement area engaging with the insert engagement area, a rim and groove disposed around an outside of the lower insert, and a primer pocket disposed inside the back end.
