OS3 HO ALL Pro Slot Car Professional Controller - Clear

OS3 HO ALL Pro Slot Car Controller

One of the big problems guys face in advancing in the hobby has always been getting a good controller. The price is usually always the barrier. Current units from DR, Lucky Bob’s, DiFalco, and 3rd Eye are in excess of $225.00. One is even above the $300.00 mark.

The OS3 HO has: 1) Adjustable Sensitivity, 2) Adjustable Choke, 3) Adjustable Brake/Neutral/Coast, 4) Full Power Kill Button. The key feature here is that the Sensitivity pot is independent of Brake/Coast pot. You can get your sensitivity set and then dial in or out as much brake or coast as you want. Another way is to set the Choke where you want it and then adjust the Sensitivity and Brake/Coast.

Some other popular brands don’t have that ability. It is highly frustrating. As an example: If a car needs a lot of sensitivity, then the circuit puts too much power into the brake/coast pot. Switching on that pot can cause the car to screech to a halt or have so much coast that if runs around on the track with no trigger input.

Full Power Kill Switch - With the switch in the Kill position, the Full Power post is not powered. Full Power will be set to the Choked value. If the Choke setting is at Min, the output voltage at full pull will be about 1-1.5V below track voltage. Increasing the Choke will reduce that power further. This is useful when running cars too sensitive for full track voltage ie. Brass Cars. It is also useful for lowering the power for new drivers. In the Full Power position, full track voltage is available at full trigger pull. There is no indicator to distinguish each position since the power running any LED would act as Coast power when the trigger is released. With a car on the track it is easy to test if the car increases speed when reaching the Full Power trigger position. The switch is well tucked in. Once set it will stay and does not need to be checked during use.

When you first pick up the OS3 HO ALL Pro, it is apparent that it is a quality, well thought out and constructed controller. Jerry's design uses a compact arrangement of control pots that are not hung out there in outer space like some units. All components are inside the handle or just above.

The current convention with most other competing designs is that the transistor is located on a big, bulky, heavy, cloddy, clunky heat sink hanging from the power wires below the controller handle. All of that is now incorporated into the handle of the Stage 3T. The only thing outside of the handle on the power wires is a small fixture for the fuse.

The short story is that the OS3 HO ALL Pro ran ALL of my pro magnet cars as fast as or faster than my DR controller. That includes: Ceramic Pro Super Stock, Club Stock Level 4 cars, 3 ohm Ceramic Level 25, Restricted Open, and Drop-In Neo.

For racers that want to be able to dail up enough coast to 'auto roll' a car , the OS3 HO ALL Pro's circuit can handle that.

Customer Feedback: Received the SS Pro Controller yesterday. WOW, love this thing.

Put a Wizzard hardbody on my track, a routed track Dan Cronin made for me. Using my Difalco HD30 (has no coast) I could turn consistent 2.8-2.9 second laps. Put the SS Pro on the track, played with the coast a bit then began turning consistent 2.50-2.55 second laps, not just faster but more consistent. I put the Difalco back on and ran about 50 laps but could not break 2.8 seconds.

I know most of that is the coast that my Difalco does not have but the SS Pro is lighter and just feels better in my hand without all that dangling weight. Not to mention less monwt than a Difalco.

'E'MOTION H.O. CONTROLLERS

Difalco Design, the number one name in custom 1/24th slot car controllers, is coming to H.O. racing. Our controllers have won over 80% of all classes held at the 1/24th USRA Div. 1 Nationals the last 8 years. Our line of 1/24th “E”Motion electronic transistor controllers have quickly become known for their innovative features, reliability and ease of maintenance.

STANDARD H.O. CONTROLLER FEATURES

  • Computer designed and labeled circuit board. Wiper bands are nickel plated for durability and will not tarnish.

  • Fifteen wiper band contacts instead of eight for smoother power application and more control than eight band designs.

  • Exclusive computer routed fiberglass frame. Will not cause shorts and keeps wiring neat.

  • Electronic transistor design has a wide range sensitivity pot to control all types of H.O. cars. No wiper band arcing.

  • Heavy duty 10 gauge silicone wire and floating silver power contact. Lower voltage drop than 14 gauge wire for more power to your car.

  • New Acu-Pivot Trigger Pin reduces bushing play to a minimum and keeps that new controller feel.

  • Circuit protection. Resetable fuse on brake circuit automatically starts working after hook up is corrected. Reverse polarity diode protects transistor from damage.

  • Incredibly simple design. No hidden components! Our controllers can be repaired by any racer! Complete instructions describing features, maintenance and troubleshooting included.

  • Dual polarity - simple, tamper resistant plug system switches between positive and negative polarity tracks.

  • Brake/Off/Coast switch with full range brake/electronic coast pot. Electronic coast uses the transistor to power the car instead of a rheostat which can burn out more easily.

  • No brake post required! Unlike other transistor controllers you don't need a brake connection to make this controller work! Electronic coast feature still functions also.

OPTIONAL FEATURES

  • Electronic Choke. Simply turn down the separate choke pot to reduce track power to the car when needed. Makes fast cars more drivable on tight twisty tracks and boosts your race lap totals.

  • “Fanatic” feature. This feature sets Difalco Design controllers apart from everybody else! An individual adjustment pot on each band is used to instantly change the controllers power curve for the ultimate control! With the turn of a small screwdriver you can make each band more or less sensitive. Tune any car to any track or driving style!

H.O. HD30 RESISTOR NETWORKS

Miniature plug in circuit board allows racer to change the overall band resistance to best suit the type of motor being used. The higher the listed ohms the slower the band response and the lower the listed ohms the faster the band response. The standard networks are soldered and ready to install and have the same value resistance per band. The custom networks have miniature sockets and various values of resistors that can be mixed and matched to get the desired band response. All H.O. and 1/32 controllers come standard with a 290 ohm network. As a comparison, our 15 band Fanatic controllers have 300 ohms of total resistance.

Ds Slot Racing Controller

Note: the network resistance, 290 ohms for example, is the resistance needed to control our transistor circuit and should not be confused with the ohms rating on a typical Parma type resistor.
