They are the same controller as I have. It is a solid controller that I can say is good for the 120A. In my TC3 I used 2S and 3S lipos with my N80 and it is fast. With 4S in my TC3 Truggy, it is ballistic. The program box is awesome to use and you can change parameters fast. They are also the same as the Speed Passion, but I know so far the Venom is much cheaper and if you get it from Towerhobbies, you can use the discount codes. I'm having fun with the only Hobby Wing in the USA . I can't bring them in because of Hobby Wing's relationship with Speed Passion. In one of my posts in another thread, you can see what I asked Hobby Wing to do, but still no answer. They told me I need to only buy 2000 units a year and I told him I can buy more then that as I can cover Brasil as well.

Did you have to do anything to run it on 4s? Disable the internal bec, or any other mods? Also, what motor do you run on 4s? Is the tc3 truggy the rcp designs conversion?

I disabled the BEC. I did run the BEC with 3S and it did fine. I use the HV4.5 and I use it in sensored mode. The TC3 is not the RCP conversion, I bought it a long time ago and the person did a nice job on the conversion. Here are pictures of it before the HW controller, but with the HV4.5 in it. http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...49&postcount=6, http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...50&postcount=7 and http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/show...51&postcount=8.

Nice looking rc lutach. Was it hand made? I am guessing that you would rate the HW esc better than the novak. I may have to get one, as my mm in the crt.5 with the hv6.5 is not doing so well. Lots of stuttering from a standstill.

The person that made the conversion did a very nice job. The shock towers seems to be the only custom made part and the arms are from Losi and Associated. I like the HW very much. HW won't be selling the 120A or 60A here in the US, but you can get the Venum which is the same.
