1. Jeti Spin 200 - plane controller, does it work with pistol grip radios?
2. Schulze 40.160 - have seen people run FG conversions with them. Do they work well with Neus? Most are running Lehners or Plettenbergs etc.
3. Kontronik Power Jazz - Lowest rated of the ESCs, I don't believe that the Power Jazz has a car mode unlike the other Jazz controllers.
4. CC Hydra 240 HV - Boat controller, but I can fab up a heatsink instead of the water tubes.
Just looking for peoples experiences, I don't know whether a boat or plane programming will be better for start-ups and running a truck. I know neither will be ideal but there is not a lot of choice for car-designed HV/large-scale controllers. I am using mechanical brakes, all I need the controller for is forward control.
Thanks

The Jeti Spin does work with a pistol grip radio, but it doesn't have proportional brake so you'll have to keep the mechanical brake (I have 3 of them and if you're planning on buying one let me know, all you'll need is the programmer for it)
The 40.160 has a car mode. I have one in one of my truggy and it's a monster. The only problem is that it doesn't have a lipo cut-off.
