Resetting parameters, increasing or decreasing the level of assistance, changing modes, readouts, and many more features are available.
Wired Console
Console is an e-bike computer display. It consists of a five feet cable that directly plugs into the motor. No need for charging the console or pairing with the motor. Simply plug it into the motor, switch it on, and start riding. It comes with a wireless plus/minus controller which allows you to change the power levels, applying the brake, and setting circumference.
Wired Plus/Minus
The wired plus/minus is a controller that allows you to control the power levels; increase or decrease the levels. Easy to change pedal-assist or regeneration mode and apply the brake, and use reverse mode in trikes.
COMPATIBLE COMBINATIONS
Wired Plus/Minus and Wireless Module
Both can be used simultaneously. It allows you to pair it with your smartphone app. Using wired plus/minus allows you to have a hassle-free ride. By using this combination, you can easily set the parameters, and also you can ride without connecting your phone by using wired plus/minus.
ANT+/BLE Wireless Module and Wired Console
Both ANT+/BLE Wireless Module and Wired Console cannot be used simultaneously. Either you can use ANT+/BLE Wireless Module or Console. When you want to use the smartphone app to set the parameters or monitor the torque sensor readings, you need an ANT+/BLE wireless module. If you are going to have a regular ride.

Trikes at the Coast
Hello Falco Team, We put our trikes in the truck and drove to the NH seacoast for a ride - We really enjoy having electric assist as it has enabled us to resume biking after many years - the motor performs flawlessly - right now it’s set up with the wired +/- and the console off - we have to figure out a better way to mount the console so that it’s more easily viewed - the iPhone app works well to view various parameters. The review posted on 1 September was very informative - have you considered starting a Falco Users Group where users could post suggestions/comments? By the way, installation is easy once you figure it out!

My e-bike
We are very happy with it. We have a loaded weight of around 370 pounds and the motor really helps on hills that we used to go up about 4mph in the granny gear. Now we can keep up with the rest of our group (and wait for most of them). We try not to used it too much on the flats as we want to get a good workout. However, it really helps in a headwind. Feel free to refer questions to me via my e-mail.

Thank you
Thank you for being there when we have a problem. We get an immediate answer and correction. You are the best. We think that in the near future, most bikes will have motors because the key to gaining fitness on a bike is to maintain a cadence in spite of the terrain. When we anticipate increased pressure on the pedals, we use the throttle to keep up our cadence so we get a better workout than other people who do not have motors on their bikes. Your motor unit with the throttle is perfect for maintaining cadence to gain a high level of fitness.

Falco F7.7 system
I have this very system on my Catrike 559. I can’t say enough good things about the system or Falco. The motor is bullet proof and the accessories are numerous and very cool. You can run the system in various configurations; I run with a wireless Bluetooth console, thumb throttle and 5 levels of torque based pedal assist, all monitored and adjusted with my iPhone. Also downhill regenerative braking. I have easily done 75 miles with plenty of battery left. The torque sensor, speed sensor and controller are all contained within the Hub Motor. Nice! I run Big Apple Plus 26X2.15 tires and I weigh 260#. This system handles all that perfectly. Never had an overheating problem. I have had a couple of customer service requests which were handled immediately by the CEO himself. He is truly a prince of a guy. I would recommend Falco to anyone who wants a solid, reliable system. Not the cheapest, but as the old saying goes: You get what you pay for!

Review
System arrived in great shape. However written instructions for install on cat trike would be helpful. For those removing cassett from old wheel and installing on new wheel, they need a special tool to remove and re-install. Throttle cables are barely long enough for large trikes. Install on trikes is a lot different than install on a bike. Need to advise customer when ordering.

It was worth the wait!
OK, it was worth the wait. I will make a Youtube post when I get the time. I installed the 750w rear wheel system myself... Put the battery on the angled front tube, not downtube. Great balance, not too heavy. A few little snags with installation. Needed extra washers to get correct spacing. Covered my wires in a less than elegant fashion for now. Video for programming display was essential. I recommend a guide to all your videos be posted on your website. I cannot wait to take a long ride and determine battery range. Smooth pedaling with NO cogging when unassisted... I feel GUILTY getting up to 28-30 mph with easy pedaling! Thanks, Everyone at Falco! James McGhee, Miami, FL

It is Perfect!
This is a review to thank you for helping us. The motor is perfect and we are delighted with everything. If you ever need us for an article or recommendation, we would be delighted. We had a rally at Vero Beach, Florida and were able to ride with the very fastest riders at the rally. We averaged well over 20 MPH and cold accelerate up to 35 mph very easily. I am also at a very high level of fitness because the motor lets me keep my cadence over 90 as long as I want. When the pedal pressure increases, I use the throttle and keep up the cadence.
