## Abstract

A wireless throttle controller system is disclosed. The wireless throttle controller system comprises a plurality of sensors installed within a vehicle, configured to generate signals based at least on a movement of the vehicle and a movement of a shift arm attached to the vehicle. Further, at least one controller communicatively coupled to the plurality of sensors, is configured to determine a motor shift position of the vehicle based on the generated signals. Further, at least one computing device communicatively coupled to the controller, facilitates a user to send one or more commands to the at least one controller. The at least one controller, based on the one or more commands and the determined motor shift position of the vehicle, controls a throttle response of the vehicle to precisely control speed of the vehicle. The at least one controller is installed underneath cowling of a motor of the vehicle.
