The way they handle current and offer more high-RPM power simply can't be ignored.
IMO if you have well-maintained motor and packs, you will definitely see a performance increase by trading up to a higher-end speed control that was custom-made for the specific type of racing you're doing. I'd be very surprised if you didn't notice a difference with the LRP TC over a $50 cheapie.

Thanks mate better upgrade the speed controller then.. I have been told in the past that for 540 can motors it should not make that much of a difference but I thought it just must..

Cheers
