    Looking at buying a 2011 to 2016 machine TM-1P, thoughts on the controller?

    Hey everyone hope all is well these days.

    I would like to buy a new TM-1P machine but the lead times I've been given is about 30 weeks. I can't afford to wait that long so the next best thing is a newer machine. I can't find any 2017+ machines that have the Next Generation Controller. My question is this, is the classic controller still well supported? Some of the machines I am looking at have not been run a lot so I don't worry so much about the mechanical as I do for the electrical components.

    Thoughts and advice appreciated!

    This is shipped to Canada. They are not making TM machines or simulators right now because of the chip shortage. Found myself a low hour pratically new 2018 so all is good!
