Omar does not make brushless EV controllers. The Zilla is brushed motor only rated for 400V at 2000A. I think I saw too Zilla controllers in the car with two 9" DC motors. Judging the motor size, I would think his motors are rated for 20HP a piece. So that would be around 400 Peak horse power at take off. There are some prototype EV brushless drives out there but not in the hands of the public. Our R/C brushless controllers are really advanced for what they do, just the power is limited to about 1000watts peak.
