For my car electronics I have always run Castle, but I'm always trying to save a buck and for my cheaper airplanes since they eventually crash anyway, I tried to get away with cheaper cotrollers, but I'm done with that too. I've tried just about every brand of cheap controller and I really havent found one that works the way its supposed to. You name it and I have it and the issues are always there. Either the controller wont handle anywhere close to its amp rating, or the 3A bec wont handle some of the faster servos, or the startup routines just suck, or the motor loses sink at high rpms. Its always some funny issue and to figure it out I always put my ice controller in to see why the issue is happening. One day I had an idea, maybe I could just put an ice controller in to begin with and bypass the funny issues and slowly but surely I'm converting my fleet over to all Castle controllers. Warranty service is also non-existant on the cheap controllers so there is really no use in complaining. My last warranty claim from oversees took 7 months. 7 months!!!!!!!!! I'm another year older now.
I was a bit annoyed with the failures on the MMM V1 and V2s too, but really there is no one else that comes even close to providing the products and warranty support that Castle offers.
