Default JP Multi function gear controller

Hi...i am running a set of JP gear in my new Top RC 1/6th F16. The gear work great but there is a long delay on the "up" cycle built into the controller. Its about 5-6 sec. if you throw in another sec or two with my tx sequencer program my gear do not move for at least 7 sec or more after takeoff. This has not caused any specific problems other than i dont like putting that load on the gear and doors as the plane is accelerating after takeoff. The jp factory is saying the delay is a built in safety in case you bump the retract switch on the ground there is time to reset it. I am wondering if there is another gear controller that i can use (maybe RB45) that will drive this gear correctly. I am using my radio as a sequencer and also a separate brake valve so i only need a basic gear controller to drive the gear up and down. My concern is the "amp out" settings on different controllers for specific gear motors. The motors on this F16 gear are of the larger type so i would need a max type amp out setting. thx Vin

RB45 does NOT have door servo ports and is not adjustable for amperage.

LGC 13 is the one you want

The RB 45 did the job. No more delay and the gear work normal.
