When Stefano Mirabelli anounced he was intending to produce a Brushless controller sometime ago, I was keen to place my order but, I had suggested there was no real Rush to be supplied asap.
As it turned out he supplied quite a few units to many Eager people but then stopped Production, to set about re-designing the unit.
We communicated quite a bit (initially) but then didn't hear anything from him for some time,..... until recently.
I noticed he was assisting the NSR Team at the recent ISRA World's event and it was his New BLDC Controller they were using.
A short while ago, Stefano sent out emails to all those that had shown interest initially but never received one of the original units, offering a Single unit each, at a Special 'One Off' discounted price.
After chatting further I placed my order.
Due to issues with my Modem and actually misunderstanding his last message, I was Amazed to discover (when eventually getting back on line), that not only had he decided to Trust me and Post it without securing Payment from me but had also Tested MY specific unit, both on the PSU AND on the track, ..... and .... Sent me a video !!
Talk about Great Service !!!
These Units, are Not 'cheap' but could be argued Are good value, (considering their Spec's compared to other units currently available) and have already Proven themselves in pretty serious competition at the recent ISRA races.
Spec's: As supplied by the Designer & Manufacturer
15.8mm X 24.7mm
1.82g approx.
40 Ampere continuous delivery (>80 Ampere mosfet in ideal conditions)
Starting voltage (depends on the motor) can be as low as 1.10 volts
High torque at low rpm also with very low kV motors (<3000kV)
More than 240,000 rpm with selected motors for extreme racing
At least 20 volts input capable
Production units will be available shortly at 80.00 Euros each and Postage from Milan, is 15.00 Euros
Arrangement for Local distribution, is already underway

40 amps at 12 volts = 480 watts
80 amps at 12 volts = 960 watts
Without a huge heatsink that board wouldn't last a millisecond.
Sounds like they're quoting 'Maximum Drain Current' off a data sheet. Means nothing without some mega cooling.
I eagerly wait to be proven wrong.
