Anyone fitting a TRC012 throttle. Don’t follow the manual. Ignore any and all wiring diagrams you find or get sent. Don't bother looking for instructional videos.
 Plug everything into everything that matches plugs or has the same thing written on it. I haven’t got a “parking” plug on my controller and the KSI plugs don’t match so they’re not connected. Do not connect the key where the diagram tells you to. Only use that if you’re fitting a contactor and want an extra safety device. I’ll be fitting one at a later date.
Long and short of it is, it works ! 

Thanks for allowing me in. I have just had a 10kw motor fitted to my boat, powered by 314ah 48v lifepo4. Add an EZkontroller and a TRC012 throttle. And that's where the problems began.
Downloaded the app to program the throttle. Followed the video I found for a the TRC010 throttle. Updated the app and the motor started spinning backwards. Panicked, pressed a"disable" button on the app. Motor didn't stop so I turned it off with the key and then had to wait around 3 hours before I could get the app to do anything. It kept saying "state motor error" (or something along those lines) which was a result of changing a setting whilst the motor was spinning.
I spent the free time talking to a couple of people who know more than I do and searching for any information I could find about the throttle and what the error message meant. There's literally nothing useful on the web about the throttle. I found state motor error (may have that wrong) but no instructions on how to make it go away.
eventually I got the app working and was able to press the same button and enable the "throttle reset enable" setting. Turned the controller back on and the motor started spinning again. 
So I gave up and went home.
Got a manual for the throttle that evening from a friend, it didn't come with one. Saw that there was supposed to be a safety key. Hurrah. Problem solved,
Nope.
returned to the boat, armed with the throttle and controller manuals, found the safety key, pulled every plug out and started over. The engineer who had connected everything had made a total bollocks of it. Thought Id got everything connected, switched it all on. Nothing.
Made a 5v power supply to feed the throttle. Nothing.
Took the cover off the throttle to find the white cable had been cut and wasn't connected. Confirmed it had 5v on it, took the throttle to an electronics specialist for repair.
No joy from goldenmotor but they will be getting a bill for the repair.
The TRC012 manual has been attached for anyone who wants it.

Update: so far, I've been able to confirm that the reverse button does indeed swap direction of motion even with a hyperbolic throttle, provided I go to neutral first (makes sense).

When I short the regen brake button, regardless of spin direction, the motor stops quickly and I get the 17 beep alarm that I'd expect when regen is on (as seen on other posts). Whether this actually recharges the batteries or not remains to be seen, as the motor isn't yet connected to the propeller, nor indeed is the boat in the water yet.
