I know of one that died really early in its life.

But I also know of GTB's that have done the same.

There were only a few around here a couple of months ago now there are a lot. They are butter smooth and tons of power I havent felt any coging in them.

easy to adjust
no need to carry a laptop around with the program box you can make changes to the speedo in seconds
runs sensored or sensorless motors

Form seeing what one of the guy's at my local track with one. From what I can tell is that it works a lot better then the Novak ESC, and you have more controll over what you can do with the feel of the motor.

Anyone looking to buy a Novak GTB? I'd really like to replace it with another SP GT. I really like mine. Running a SP GT w/Novak 6.5 in a CRT .5.

I hear that RC Corral dude is pretty cool...

Been using SP brushless at the Surf City Classic yesterday with 6.5 motor on my Lazer ZX-5 SP. The speedo's blazin' and I was able to pace with the local fast guys in qualifying and only few positions off from A Main. I highly recommend get the SP along with the motor.
