Along with all the other Sparrows with the same problem.  The newer ones 
have a better ammeter, which may be more accurate.

Yup, I've seen up to 200A on the EMeter (which probably just barely reached 
150 on the analog meter), and I believe my currently limit is set up around 
300A or so.

I have no need for burning rubber or wasting more power.  I need every bit 
of range I can get.  And even limiting myself to 200A in a Sparrow does 
pretty darn good acceleration!
