design engineer could love) and the equally terrible documentation. It
always takes one or two calls to the factory to get one working properly.
Having used that controller many times at big contest stations, and having
seen a couple of them fail, I couldn't agree more. This is easily remedied
by ordering an Orion without the controller (which, thanks to M2's
enlightened attitude, you can do) and using a Green Heron controller
instead. They're a perfect match. The difference in cost is $124, less than
a pair of replacement mast clamps ;-)
