Welcome to 4QD – Electric Motor Control

We manufacture a range of  DC motor speed controllers and accessories for battery powered electric motors that are tough, reliable, and easy to use.

Our passion is getting stuff working – for industrial machine applications as well as hobbyists.

• Industrial – we’ve powered a really wide range of projects across many sectors worldwide.
• Hobbyist – our controllers are used in model locomotives, electric vehicles, boats, robots and many other DIY projects.

We love helping mechanics get the electrics working, and can provide electric motor speed control solutions for almost anything with a battery and a DC electric motor, to see the sort of thing we’ve done have a look here,  or just browse around the site, all of the pictures throughout this site are using our controllers.
