Hi Neil, Yep, I've read all the reports on RTC before buying the unit.I debated between the 2x25 and 2x50 amp models. I decided on the 2x25 model based on price, motors used and type of tank usage. My tank although quite heavy at around 125 pounds isn't used for paintball combat but rather to look "pretty" as it were. I'm just happy to run around the yard for a little bit and back into the shop. So no real punishment out in the wilds of a field trying to run the tank wide open for 3 or minutes at time trying to avoid a paintball.
I did note that some of the postings mentioned the used of drill motors in their setup, I wonder if these type of motors could have contributed to any of the issues you good folks have run into?
