1970's AURORA AFX 45ohm controller Great budget upgrade from AFX 120ohm

I have always felt that the small controllers included with the Tomy AFX sets are too small & that throttle resolution is not so good. The vintage AURORA 45 OHM controller is a great size & has smoother throttle response..great resolution!
With the new (old) AURORA controller from the 1970's I am sure you will notice better feel & big performance difference. They work great with magnatraction, and other pancake motor cars. I really like this vintage controller in combination with the Bulldog chassis.
I know I do.🏁

    You are correct the ohm rating of the controllers is a mismatch for most cars. They are for the Mega G + cars. I agree the older controllers fit better in my hands, the new ones are too small for an adult.

    The Tomy 120 ohm controllers are only intended to be used with Mega G+ cars. They don't work well with anything else. The Mega G+ racing "system" is a Mega Joke in general.

    I'm looking at controllers like what you have there on ebay and some have screws holding the two halves together and some do not. They look the same and same color. Some are being called Russkit Hand Controller. Do the controllers you have there have screws holding them together ?. Are they Russkit controllers ?. Thanks! for any feedback...
