Will a Curtis 1205M-5603 controller work?

[Boozshey]

So should I look at doing a MCOR conversion?

Or is there some wiring that needs to be changed to use the vglide?

If You have a Multi-Step potentiometer (VGlide type box), the throttle wire connections to the Controller terminals are critical.

Throttle Connections:

Green wire goes to J2 (middle)
Yellow goes to J3 (bottom)
Purple needs to connect to B-

If You have different color wires, please identify the color of the wires coming out of the Multi-Step potentiometer box.

[Boozshey]

Wire colors match and plug in locations match... :/

[Sergio]

If the wires match:

Make sure throttle type 9 is selected.

By-pass the reverse micro-switch:

Disconnect the 3 wires from micro-switch #3.
Tape the Black wire as it will not be used.
Connect the White and Green wires together.

Pull the Yellow wire from Controller terminal #3 just far enough to put positive voltmeter probe there.

Set the meter to 20vdc and measure the voltage from Pedal Up to Pedal Down.

Awesome sergio!!

That bypass allowed me to have reverse! I can tell it’s full reverse but that’s fine for my needs.

I measured the voltage to 4.29 at 100%.

[Boozshey]

One annoying thing that exists is a sort of Time delay. So when I press the throttle I need to hear the click wait a second and then I can go full throttle.

If I just got full throttle it won’t engage. Is there a bypass for that feature as well?

Try adjusting your throttle deadband setting.

[Boozshey]

Yeah, I did the throttle dead and, all it did was change the amount of “play” in the pedal. I’ll increase it to 100% and see if that allows enough

Make sure the wiper arm inside the Multi-Step potentiometer is only touching the last pad at full throttle.

As far as the delay, make sure you have a voltage reading on terminal #3 when the micro-switch "clicks" and sends power to controller terminal #1.

The Multi-step potentiometer is not a real potentiometer since there is an "open circuit" before the arm inside moves over the second pad where the purple wire is connected.

If the micro-switch is clicking before the arm touches the pad with the purple wire, you will get a throttle error.

In that case you can just put a piece of wire between the pad with the purple wire and the one before it without any wires connected.
