as much as i,d like one, electronic controllers are way way out of my price range. i got an avant slot black peugot and a black mr slotcar both less than half price! i run with the magnets taken out. gotta love the wife. both these cars run best on a 15 ohm parma, wich you can buy for £21 usa inc postage. all ive got is the 15ohm resistor slotted into a ninco case. but beware if your running 5 amp motors the case starts to melt,you can use the right size ally rod to poke through the hole in the resistor leaving a2in + piece poking out either sde to act as a heat sink. john.
