Our setup had an on/off switch and we hated it so much we really never tried in on many hills. But on the flat as soon as the bike got to say 5mph the motor kicked in and the bike would speed up. So at any speed that I was peddling it wanted to go faster. While in the assist mode I could use the throttle to override it but only to increase the speed. Maybe if it had a way to fine tune it I think it might have been a lot better. But I have to question the true value of it. I know when I want power and when I don't. And I know how much power I want/need. So what's the value of it?
