So...I have very kindly been lent three basic home controllers to try out and get a better understanding of the differences between the various ohmage ratings.
And there was a clear winner. On my medium size track that I have set up for the weekend, running a car with a Scaleauto 21k motor, the 45 ohm controller gave the best balance between trigger response and braking. That was comparing it with similar 35ohm and 60ohm controllers. It only took a couple of laps with each to get a feel for how they performed, and the differences were clear. Too sensitive a trigger with the 35, and no brakes with the 60.
So second hand Parma or new DS?
