I have this controller that I picked up cheap recently. Does anyone know what specific model it is, and what cars it's suitable for?

 

It's obviously an older Third Eye, and the sticker on the transistor unit says that it's been refurbished. I've tried it at the local raceway, and it seems to work fine, but the sensitivity seems very low, even turned all the way up. It looks a lot like the pictures that I find of a Renegade, but the only pictures I see are of a Renegade 2, and the transistor unit is different.

 

Thanks!

Thanks! Do you know what level of motors it's designed to handle?

 

My impression of this one is that, even with the sensitivity turned all the way up, it has a noticeably softer low end than my Difalco that I normally use. Is that the way it's supposed to be?
