Controllers

Hi, I have just bought this.



It works, bought it SH, with a 32 race car, £60. Used it on a wooden track with this type of SC car



At this track

Question. The knobs....Is it just a case of playing and seeing what drives best, or is there a way of setting them, in other words, how do they work?

TIA. Andy

hi all
when i made my controllers for other peoples i tryed to make easy for them to remember what the knobs did
ie, red knob for stop( brake), green for go (ohms control), and blue for choke
so may be thats the same but hay what would i know
what ever the knobs do
having more control over a standard controller will have it's advantages
100ths gained is better than 100ths lost in this game
good luck with it

On most controllers the 3 knobs are sensitivity, brakes and choke

Sensitivity adjusts much power you get when the trigger is part way down. This is used to make the car easier to drive round corners. It makes no difference to full power or brakes. If the car feels like it's sluggish in corners turn this up, if the car seems to have too much power in corners turn it down.

Brake adjust how hard the car brakes. If the car feels like its topping too quickly into corners turn this down, if the car won't stop quickly enough going into corners turn it up. It makes no difference to full power or sensitivity.

Choke usually reduces acceleration out of corners, which can make the car easier to drive. If you have too much power coming out of corners making the car unstable, turn in some more choke. It makes no difference to brakes.

I'm not going to guess which knob is which on that controller.

Adjust them to suit your car and your driving.

Very helpful GR, thank you. I now have a clearer idea on how things work.

That makes sence, Red = Brake, Green = Go, Blue = Choke. Mine had the Red and Blue wrong, now changed. Thanks to both of you. Next race a week Monday.

my goodness
a doctor making sence
and me at that
glad to be of some help

Hi, I'm looking for any info about Parma EC Electronic Controller.



Thanks

Hi,

it seems that this controller is history probably.......

Thanks for the info

Guys with lots of knobs and dials and buttons are control(ler) freaks who secretly want to fly the Starship Enterprise

I have 16 buttons and two knobs on my Parma Plus, but all are glued on with Velcro and do nothing, but I sooooo enjoy pushing them all the time.
