Launch Control w/ Power FC

Anyone running launch control with the PFC? What are you using? How do you like it?

I want to know what anyone is using for launch control in conjunction with or on top of the PFC. No Anti-lag as I don't want to deal with the long term problems. I am more interested in LC and no lift shifting.

anti lag:
to take away "lag" on gearchange

launch control:
to maintain a stable and accurate launch RPM each time


Apexi PowerFC Pro has 0km/h Rev Limit adjuster which is "launch control".
You need a piggyback or standalone Anti Lag box to get Anti Lag functionality

Paul,
What launch control setups are you guys using with the standard PFCs? None of us in the States have the Pro model that I am aware of.

Cheers,
Robert

The Apexi commander pro has apparently been discontinued so your only chance to get one would be second hand and still no guarantee it would be compatible with your model of the FC.

No way that I am aware of to achieve a launch control feature other than with this unit.

There are laptop software and connectivity options, but I am not familiar with them.
