I think they're going to be disappointed if they think they're going to make any sort of major sales in the 2S - 4S category. I think that's pretty much locked up by castle, IMHO. Personally I think the opportunities start in the 5S and up category. The ones that are available for that voltage level are downright pricy. I'd love to run big cell counts, but I really don't feel like dropping $400 on an ESC, if ya know what I mean. Seeing the OEMRC sentilion 12S controller for under $100 gives me hope. Too bad it's not usable in cars (well, you can with mechanical brakes, but I don't have a rig with those).

The one you've got looks pretty cool. I love the external programming box, much better than dragging a darn laptop to the track.

I look forward to further developments!

I mentioned the same thing to them. I told them that a controller for car that can handle 12S lipos would be the right thing to try now, but they made this one. I will ask them to make a HV one and see what they say.
