I plan to be first in line to buy a kit when its ready. I've finished my 1966 Boss Bug dune buggy... all it needs is motor and controller. Motor is targeted to be an AC-50 from HiPerf (no curtis controller thank you).
Your dedication and tenacity is inspiring. I feel like I know you pretty well after reading posts in this and the big open revolt forums!

Paul is building this controller in two parts for flexibility. He's working on two different Power Stages (one MOSFET, one IGBT) so that if your system voltage is low, you can have a cheaper more efficient MOSFET version, or if you have higher voltage, the IGBT version. Note that the Logic board will work for many different motor types and changing the power-stage will allow you to scale to whatever size/type motor (excluding DC).
