Ds Slot Racing Controller
The job of the controller is to feed power to the car in direct proportion to how much the trigger is squeezed.A good match produces response throughout the range of the controller.A bad match can produce a soft response, i.e., you squeeze the controller and the car does not respond until the trigger is 1/3 to ½ way down the resistor. Here the resistor has too high a rating for the car it is trying to control.Equally undesirable is a ‘fast’ controller response, here the car takes off like a shot when the trigger is pulled back lightly.This is due to a resistor with too low an ohm rating for the car you are trying to control. Whether you use a controller with a resistor or an electronic controller (no resistor, but uses various electronics to control voltage to the track) you want a controller that is a good match to your cars requirements.Below are various resistor and electronic controllers with an explanation of the best application for that controller. All economy controllers (only) are available in either red, yellow, purple or blue handle color, please specify.
