As far as I'm concerned, Tekin made the very best speed controls ever and no one has equalled or exceeded them. Their G9 was probably the best speed control ever built, the G12 series were also excellent.

I've driven a lot of speed controls, none has ever had the feel of a Tekin. In the last two years I've run the GMV12, the LRP 7.1, Novak Cyclone and Cyclone2, CS RocketMax, Quantum Competition, and my favorite is still the Tekin G9 or G12 series.

The Tekins aren't as tiny as some of the latest models, but the fact that you don't have to hang huge capacitors and schottky diodes off them to make them work is a BIG plus in my book.
