IMPORTANT NOTE: PARMA STOPPED DIDN’T MAKE ECONOMY CONTROLLERS FOR OVER TWO YEARS. While they have recently resumed production of their Economy wire wrapped ceramic resistor controllers at this time I have decided not to carry them for the following reason. They have raised the price of their lower quality Econo controllers to $39.99 directly against the higher quality (smooth resistor board, longer heavier duty wire) DS controllers. At this time I have DS controllers available. I also have Parma HO Plus controllers. See the descriptions below. Supply is limited.I now have DS controllers in 45, 55 and 120 ohm ratings, The DS controllers come with a longer wire and three wire open leads. You can install alligator clips at additional cost or you can splice in the connector of your choice on your own. I am again making DS controllers in multiple ohm ranges. For example a 35, 45,55 ohm DS would be $59.95 as is a 35/45/55 ohm unit as is a 120/90/60 ohm unit.

The job of the controller is to feed power to the car in direct proportion to how much the trigger is squeezed. A good match produces response throughout the range of the controller. A bad match can produce a soft response, i.e., you squeeze the controller and the car does not respond until the trigger is 1/3 to ½ way down the resistor. Here the resistor has too high a rating for the car it is trying to control. Equally undesirable is a ‘fast’ controller response, here the car takes off like a shot when the trigger is pulled back lightly. This is due to a resistor with too low an ohm rating for the car you are trying to control. Whether you use a controller with a resistor or an electronic controller (no resistor, but uses various electronics to control voltage to the track) you want a controller that is a good match to your cars requirements. Below are various resistor and electronic controllers with an explanation of the best application for that controller. DS controllers are available in green, yellow, orange, black, clear, purple,red or blue. All colors are not always in stock, please specify and have a second choice in mind.Note: I now have JG’s Comfort grips (see below) available for Parma, DS, DiFalco, Russkit and Professor Motor controllers.
If you race a wide variety of slot cars we have multiple range controllers which, with the simple flick of a switch, can change the resistance of the controller to offer better response.
| DS- 45ohm similar to the Parma controller but with a longer lead wire with open three wire leads alligator clips or a connector of your choice can be added (by customer) most importantly these controllers have a smooth 21st Century resistor board rather than a ceramic, wire wrapped resistor. Available colors yellow, green, orange and blue. $39.99 or 45 ohm (best for stock out of the pack HO magnet cars) or for the Mega G, Storm SS or stock 1/32 cars. | $39.99 |
| DS- 55ohm similar to the Parma controller but with a longer lead wire with three wire open leads. Alligator clips or a connector of your choice can be added (by customer) most importantly these controllers have a smooth 21st Century resistor board rather than a ceramic, wire wrapped resistor. Available colors yellow, green, orange and blue. $39.99 55 ohm good for stock t-jets or other cars with a fairly low power draw | $39.99 |
DS 120 OHM –Made especially for us. This 120 ohm controller has a resistor board instead of a wire wound resistor for smoother operation.

NEW GENESIS 2 CONTROLLERS ARE HERE!
Genesis 2 controllers now feature a new compact heatsink design. New dual transistor layout with a higher amperage capacity for better relaibilty. The new design track hanger can be mounted on the left, right or on the short end of the heatsink. This let's you mount the heatsink to the left or right of the hook up panel.
Genesis 2 controllers feature a remote cable design. The heatsink hangs on the edge of the track for a lightweight and more comfortable handle. Our Genesis HD30 controllers use a thin cable between the handle and the heatsink assembly. To get the best possible braking all Genesis controllers use our new E.S.P. relay braking system. The E.S.P. relay bypasses the brake circuit to provide the shortest resistance path and the best braking possible when activated. All Genesis controllers feature a 40 amp full power relay with 10 ga. or 12 ga. wires.
WHY CHOOSE A DIFALCO CONTROLLER?.
OVERALL CONSTRUCTION: Our controllers are built solid with the best components! All stainless and brass hardware. We use custom made and very flexible 12 ga. or 10 ga. wire, 40 amp full power relays and ball bearing triggers for the best performance and reliability. Our 3/32” thick fiberglass frame makes our controller frame very stiff compared to others who use a 1/16” circuit board. This combined with the industry standard Parma handle keeps our controller from flexing in your hand like other brands. Our circuit board is nickel plated for durability and all controls are labeled for ease of use.
DESIGN SIMPLICITY: Other manufacturers will try to dazzle you with their complex and technical design. Trying to do the same thing our controller does in a different way. What they do not tell you is how long will it keep working. Our transistor design consists of wiper band resistors, a power transistor and a rheostat to control the overall sensitivity. That’s it! Our brake circuit uses a rheostat for reliability and linear response. Simple! No capacitors, no programmable controllers, no dozens of electronic parts that have an opportunity to fail.
UPGRADE: Our controllers feature a separate circuit board and frame design. This allows Difalco controllers to be upgraded to any new design at minimal expense! You old controller will never be obsolete! We offer simple upgrade kits as well as installation and tune-up service to get your older controller feel like new.
REPAIR: NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS! That’s what one West Coast manufacturer has printed in their instructions! When their controller fails they want to send the controller back so they can hit you up for a huge repair bill! Not Difalco Design! Any racer can repair our controllers with little effort and at little cost. Durability and reliability are what Difalco Design controllers are all about! No huge repair bill to pay! You will not loose your controller for weeks while it is at the manufacturer being repaired. This is especially important for racers outside of the USA. We have repair parts available and great troubleshooting instructions so you can get your controller repaired and racing again. If another manufacturer does not sell repair parts that means their controller is too complicated to repair and must be sent back to them!
SERVICE: The most important reason for choosing a Difalco controller is our 50 years in slot racing and 30 years manufacturing controllers! Difalco Design will be here to serve you no matter what you need. Email or call Jim with any questions or advice you need to improve your racing experience and results.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT MODEL
Our Genesis controllers are made in Neo, Pro, Fanatic and HD30 designs with various features and options. We also have dual polarity models available to use on negative and positive polarity tracks. Most of our 1/24 controllers can also run 1/32 cars as is or with adding an optional network. Our large heatsink and hi amp transistor means all 1/24 controllers can handle the fastest G7 motor unless specified otherwise.
Please contact Jim at Difalco Design if you have any question about which model is best for you or where to buy your Difalco controller. This is especially important if you want to race various scales like 1/32, H.O. and 1/24 with the same controller.
