Castle HV Hydra, but where is the car version!!!!

No the MGMs and kontronics and all the others are 1st off airplane controllers, then more specialized race boat controllers. The car function is a bit of an afterthought, which explains much of the poor brake programming (for the MGM).

FWIW, I can drive my car well enough in boat mode, but it does a few weird things, like wind the motor down slowly when you let off the throttle. Makes you feel like you are driving a boat :) On the plus side you can order the ESC as waterproof :) The car market is just poorly supported, planes 1st, then boats it seems. The plane thing I can understand. I have yet to met anyone who drives these crazy HP boats. I've met way more that have driven a RC car. I'm not real sure what you do w/ a 100mph boat either. But whatever.

For the record I meant to say "can't". typing gets a bit cutoff sometimes. Its just a matter of tweeking the program profile for the most part if its a robust enough controller it seems. Now to have a good mounting system and all that is harder in a car w/ all the bumping and crashing.

Anyway, the point of my argument was not that I hate CC or anything. I like what the MM has done for the car market, and I enjoyed mine for over a year before I bought the MGM. They are pushing the rest of the market to be more competitive, else we'd be stuck w/ novaks. The new MMM looks very cool as well.

I am generally annoyed w/ them tho how they do their marketing (as are many many others), but what set me off was the begging comment. That's just arrogant and rude, like they are doing us a favor by selling something we want. Perhaps they are just getting a bit testy over the MMM bashing, maybe he was not happy getting ambushed about car ESCs when he's trying to fire up HC hydra's interest on a boat forum. IDK, but that attitude wears on me really fast.
