The 18.97 is a great controller no doubt, but the lack of BEC makes it difficult to package into a TC. In addition, the U Force 75, even though it's has less amperage rating, I believe can probably run more constant current due to the heatsinks. also, the controller is just about watertight too. The U Force can also be adjusted - one of the aggravating things about the "future" is that they really can't program any kind of drag brake unless you really fool around with your controller. Makes it kinda hard to drive. With the U Force, you can actually setup drag brake, min. voltage, and has unfortunately a 5.0 volt BEC... but it's still built in. I had a Micro1895 about 2 years ago or so and it was okay, but it cogged and wasn't quite as smooth as Schulze - plus they cost more! I might try the MGM if I hear a lot of good things... but I'm waiting for a 50 volt 100 amp version from Castle Creations for a 14s lipo setup on my emaxx!!! I'm going to need a 1200 kv motor soon!
