Not the perfect throttle solution but it should work.

One more video should finish this thing. And doing the finishing work of course!

Very nice work. Thank you for sharing all the details. It was really interesting to follow your build and the high quality of the work.

I would just comment on two things. One is the charger. I don't know the one you have used, but here in Sweden we had several home fires started by cheap chargers, so personally I'd go for a high quality, branded one. As I said, I don't know the one you are using, so it may be a high quality one, not just a cheap Chinese "design" with half of the safety features left out.

The other thing, which I'd modify is the break switch. I noticed that you are using normally open switch. That is in my opinion not a good idea for any sort of break. I would change it to be normally closed, so that in case the wiring fails, the kart stops automatically. I noticed that you soldered the wires, and that means it will not last forever, corrosion will take it's toll and you will not know when that happens until she can't stop because the break stopped working.
