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.
HOW TO BUY YOUR DIFALCO CONTROLLER
We now accept paypal! See our sales policy section for information on what controller lines are available direct or through your local raceway and how to order. We regularly ship outside the USA or to racers visiting the U.S.A. from other countries.

DRAG RACING CONTROLLERS
(All Prices Retail)
We combined the best features from our original Dragtroller, technical knowledge we’ve gained from our successful “E”Motion road race controllers and innovative new idea’s for our greatest design ever!
Best Slot Car Controller Ho
DRAGTROLLER MODULE AND CONTROLLER
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
Full range sensitivity pot - complete control over glue and run speeds for 16D to G7 motors.
Super high amperage power transistor - our testing showed that one powerful transistor was more reliable than two low amperage units in parallel!
New layout - all components are mounted on circuit board in the handle! Not top heavy. Great for module builders.
Transistor design - means no high power on wiper bands, no arcing, virtually maintenance free!
Short stroke nickel plated circuit board won’t tarnish and gets you to full power fast!
Modules install in turbo frames and all older Dragtrollers with red circuit board for easy upgrade to new design.
MODULES
DD410 - DRAGTROLLER PRO MODULE - All the features above in a new simple to install layout for your turbo frame. Our new circuit board has custom routed slots that fit down over the turbo frame uprights! This design automatically locates itself vertically and horizontally. It sits about .070” lower so you don’t have to bend the wiper arm radically and allows the circuit board to lay perfectly flat. New in handle design has only three wires to hook up! $61
Front View Rear View
DD415 - DRAGTROLLER MODULE - All the features of the Dragtroller Pro, plus more. We brought back one of the favorite features from our original design, push-button gluing! Momentary push-button allows you to glue car without using the trigger, no hunting wiper bands for the right glue speed. Push-button also has a small adjustment pot that can be used to reduce power further compared to big sensitivity pot setting. T.Q. to change to Dragtroller T.Q. module. $82
CONTROLLERS
DD420 - DRAGTROLLER PRO CONTROLLER - Our Dragtroller Pro module mounted on our exclusive fiberglass frame. Silver power contact, heavy duty trigger shunt and 10 gauge silicone wire get the power to the track. $158
DD425 - DRAGTROLLER T.Q. CONTROLLER - Our Dragtroller Pro Plus module with push-button gluing on our exclusive frame with our full power “blast” relay added! $207

ACCESSORIES
DD402 - DRAG “BLAST” RELAY - Really improves power delivered to track when added to controller with stock wires. 120 amp (surge) relay soldered above clips allows power shorter current path for more power to your lane. Special 6 volt relay is powered by only one 9 volt battery (9 volt battery in no way adds power to track). Includes 14 gauge wire to add between relay and clips to reduce wire resistance in half. New hookup instructions eliminates micro switch when adding kit to our Dragtroller modules or controllers for simplest hookup possible. Same system Mike Aceves of Slick 7 has used for all his records! $20
DD228-10 - GLUE ROLLOUT SWITCH. Replacement glue rollout switch on DD415and DD425models. This is the original rollout button with black switch body and red knob. $12.50

DD228-15 - GLUE ROLLOUT SWITCH. Replacement glue rollout switch for newer model DD415 and DD425 models. Switch has red body with stainless steel nut for knob. $12.50

NOTE: if you have a very early version Dragtroller with a small black transistor on the back of each heat sink (that feeds the large silver transistor) please contact Difalco Design before replacing power transistor. Small black transistors should be removed, as well as resistors replaced on circuit board for best reliability and performance.
