CONTROLLERS

The job of the controller is to feed power to the car in direct proportion to how much the trigger is squeezed. A good match produces response throughout the range of the controller. A bad match can produce a soft response, i.e., you squeeze the controller and the car does not respond until the trigger is 1/3 to ½ way down the resistor. Here the resistor has too high a rating for the car it is trying to control. Equally undesirable is a ‘fast’ controller response, here the car takes off like a shot when the trigger is pulled back lightly. This is due to a resistor with too low an ohm rating for the car you are trying to control. Whether you use a controller with a resistor or an electronic controller (no resistor, but uses various electronics to control voltage to the track) you want a controller that is a good match to your cars requirements. Below are various resistor and electronic controllers with an explanation of the best application for that controller. All economy controllers (only) are available in either red, yellow, purple or blue handle color, please specify.

	Parma economy controller. Nylon trigger for comfort, three wires to allow for brake wiring, open leads. 25 ohm best for HO modified magnet car or 1/32 cars with stronger traction magnets, ie, cars with a higher power need	$24.79
	Parma economy controller. Nylon trigger for comfort, three wires to allow for brake wiring, open leads. 35 ohm or 45 ohm (best for stock out of the pack HO magnet cars) or for the Mega G, Storm SS or stock 1/32 cars use 35 ohm for cars with a lower power requirement	$24.79
	Parma economy controller. Nylon trigger for comfort, three wires to allow for brake wiring, open leads. 60 ohm or 90 ohm best for stock t-jets or other cars with a fairly low power draw	$24.79

If you race a wide variety of slot cars we have multiple range controllers which, with the simple flick of a switch, can change the resistance of the controller to offer better response.

	25-35-45 ohm Parma economy controller best for HO magnet cars and most lightly modified 1/32 cars. Gives you three ranges of control.	$47.00
	35-45-60 ohm Parma economy controller good for lightly modified magnet cars (35), stock out of pack AFX, Tyco, Auto World (45) or t-jets (60). Gives you three ranges of control.	$47.00
	70-80-90 ohm Parma economy controller good for the home or club t-jet racer. Only for use with cars with very low power draw.	$47.00
	85-105-125 ohm Parma economy controller excellent low range control for the more serious racer on short technical tracks. Allows fine control of low power cars (t-jets)	$59.99
	Turbo kit – you build it. Comes with everything but a resistor. Will accept all Parma econo, turbo or HOPlus resistors.	$40.99
	Parma 25, 35, 45, 60 or 90 ohm economy resistors (specify) each	$9.99
	Custom wound 125 ohm resistor fits all Parma controllers. Back of the resistor is heavily coated to secure wires.	$21.00
	ET grip, a soft absorbent handle for your Parma controller. Makes racing for hours so comfortable you will wonder how you ever did without one.	$6.99
	Alligator clips with color coordinated boots. For use with studs found at most commercial raceways and many club tracks, set of 3	$4.00
