<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I've been using the Hacker/Jeti Comp controllers since '09
and have lots of flights on them without issue (that oughta jinx me). These are
the old ones that Jon mentioned that Jason likes. They (and the new ones) are
programmed with a "Jeti box" that allows programming in detail and saves several
models in memory. The new ones offer more options and data logging as well. Lots
of the newer ones in use, but I don't have hands on experience.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I used a Castle for a while and found it to work well. I
prefer more "ownership" of the settings than are available with the Castle Link.
I also have a tendency to grab the latest firmware offered and that's not always
a good thing with these. Lots of folks use them, there's good support, and
they're a good value though.</FONT></DIV>

Pro</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr>I am trying to figure out the best ESC to use for my new project.
I have been a Castle guy since my introduction several years ago to
electric. I believe at this point, my best choice is the Jeti Spin 99
Pro mainly due to weight at 100g vs. the other 100A ESCs out there. I
looked at the OS1100 and of course the Castle ESC but they are heavier. I have
been told good things about the Jeti and the smoothness as well as the
braking. Really, I have two questions: 1. Is there a lighter 100A+ ESC
that is of good quality? 2. How do these get programmed? It
appears there is a little programmer called the Jeti Spin Mini Programmer but
can you also use some sort of PC program to program these like the Castle?
