Confidence Training

Confidence affects riding behavior. Developer notes describe warning icons before unexpected gait changes and a dedicated desensitization exercise.

How should I approach confidence training?

Watch for warnings

The announced system gives an opportunity to correct a gait change before it occurs. Record the situation and confidence value when comparing behavior.

Choose the right exercise

Desensitization is specifically described as confidence training. Use the separate guide for the curiosity-versus-worry response loop.

Check version context

Earlier demo confidence could be maximized more quickly; later development notes explicitly describe rebalancing. Do not carry old demo rates into a release schedule.
