This is basically for Pete, since he posed this question in another thread.
We discussed control systems on here a while ago (Myself, JoeC etc) and JoeC said he had tested the Dynamic and an older P and G and the dynamic was better in high current situations. After talking to Penny and Giles, and Dynamic tech guys and having tested with clamp meters (for amps) after discussing this I can tell you he is right...
An 80 amp P and G can only do 80 amp to each motor, NOT at the same time. It does 80 total too!
An 80 amp Dynamic controller can also do 80 to each motor but can do so simultaniously.
The 100 amp pilot plus can do 100 max.
The 120 amp Rnet can also do 100 max with a 10 second "boost" at 120 total.
The DX2 is 90 so 180 POSSIBLE! And it can do a 2 second boost at 120 amps per channel so 240 total.
So if the batteries are capable it can give you more power.
The problem is that group 24 gel batteries CANT provide this amount of amps. Or at least they cant without the voltage sagging. At which point the controllers safety circutry reduces the power... Even 80 amps is a struggle with less than brand new MK Gel batteries.
So in an average chair/user theres not "much" difference between one system and another because they are programming and battery limited.
Thats why both JoeC and myself use dual purpose Deep Cycle & Starter batteries... He uses Optimas, I use Hawker Odyssey. These can just about cope when new and fully charged! But even they struggle in giving hundreds of amps when older or less than fully charged. Thats one other reason I love Lithium Polymer batteries as they can be 40c Which means that we can take HUGE currents from them without issue.
Of course with stock programming you very seldom ever "call" for this amount of power as the delays and "accelerations" at the engineering level dont let you. So its irrelivant for the average type user.
Even with everything set linear (all delay and damping removed IN PROGRAMMING) the P and G stil takes 1 sec to ramp up to full power. The dynamic is much faster and therefore better (or can be) According to JoeC who measured both.
