New circuit boards are here and shipping to distributors Monday. Upgrades include improved graphics and a new soldermask on the front and rear. Gold over nickel plating. The traction rheostat has been moved for much easier access to the ESP brake switch. New mini rheostats for sensitivity and traction control feature shorter shafts for a more compact controller width.

 

Added graphics and circuit changes now make left handed models available. These will probably be done as a special order. Circuit board colors include white (very light blue), black, red, blue and, my little tribute to Joel of Camen, purple.

The brake/coast has always been on my PCB! Just check. That is for HO racing. I was not happy with the 1/24 version of that feature during testing so it just has not been offered yet. It will be next summer.

Will the brake/coast feature be a retro fit option Jim?

now, they have shipped to distributors. Doubtful that distributors have any of the old style but make sure you ask your raceway to check.

Love the new design.  If traction control is not desired, the new layout will accommodate anti-brake components without adding board material <3
