Great! This is fantastic - been looking at how to wire up a Truspeed to red/white/black for a while 😅 Thanks so much!

Ah! Like Dynamic brakes on railway engines! I get it now. Thanks!

Thanks… interesting with the back emf of the motor, you get full brakes whether you want them or not with how the 3 wire controllers work.

Hi Mitch, with the Parma set up I have there, yes it's brakes on only. I fitted a potentiometer to mine so I could turn them down when I raced 1:24. The track I raced on was quite open and flowy, so didn't require full brakes. I also built my motors to gave better roll on than stock.

Great visual and explanation. Only other thing I would add is a lot of controllers have a 100 ohm pot to vary the degree of braking. I totally agree on expanding the hobby, took me a while to get a group of guys coming out to my garage but now I am there and having a blast.

Thanks for the feedback Mark. I just wanted to stick to the basics on this video. The relay in my wiring diagram seems to cause the most amount of questions, but I still think it's important for it to be show where it gets installed. All those who have asked, will now know where to find the info, if they end up needing it.

Green brown blue looks a lot like mains electric flex colours. Would normally be green with yellow stripe, but still.

Agreed. That's most the situation, they no doubt but the most cost effective wire they can purchase.

Wow thanks so much, I should have realized what was going on. So you have a pot to adjust the braking to your liking. I assume the more resistance the less braking you have. I assume the other two pots i usually see would connect to either end of the wire wound resistor and control minimum and maximum resistance or perhaps its more complicate then that. Ever try to build your own controller? Would love to come race with you someday but might take a bit as I am in New Jersey :)

It sounds like this helped, that's good, I hope it helps others also. The adjustment on a variable brake adjuster knob only decreases the amount of braking. It's not possible to increase it. I just want to clarify that point, because people I've spoken to over the years have told me that variable brakes shouldn't be allowed, because it's an unfair advantage. Fact is, some drivers prefer brakes, some don't, and then there's those who only like a little.

Hi… Is 2 1 3 the controller plug?

The numbers are the pin identification of the XLR that the group I race in use.
