10R80 Beta Testing Coming Soon
November 16, 2020
We are making great progress on implementing support for the Ford 10R80 transmission. After developing new tuning tools, we've been able to streamline the calibration development process. We plan to begin limited beta testing in early 2021. Sign up for our newsletter to stay up to date on the progress of the 10R80 project.

SEMA Show 2020
August 5, 2020
Due to Covid-19 and concerns that event facilities and services will be unavailable, the SEMA Show will not be taking place in 2020. We are looking forward to attending in 2021 and look forward to meeting with customers and friends in the industry then!
US Shift Transmission Control Systems
US Shift transmission control systems from Baumann Electronic Controls represent the state of the art in electronic transmission control. US Shift products are cost-effective, easy to install, and easy to use for high-performance and heavy-duty applications. US Shift products are equally well suited to the finest street rods, 8-second drag cars, off-road vehicles, high-powered diesels, motor-homes, and specialty applications. US Shift controllers feature the smallest size, most useful features, and greatest value of any transmission controller on the market. Best of all, they are proudly made in the USA.
Our 18 years of transmission control experience have provided us with a working knowledge of what customers want most. Modern electronics technology and innovative design allow us to deliver the best features and performance with minimal size and cost. We believe there is no better transmission control system available at any price. Once you compare the features of US Shift to the competition, we are certain that you will agree.
US Shift products are the only transmission controllers on the market with a native USB interface and free tuning software for fast and easy PC connectivity with no adapter cables. The US Shift Quick6, Quick4, and Quick2 controllers feature an OLED display and rotary control. Displayed parameters include transmission fluid temperature, current gear / mode, vehicle speed, TPS voltage, and battery voltage. The easy-to-use, graphical built-in tuning interface allows the most common settings to be changed without using a PC or laptop. For most users, the built-in tuning interface will be adequate to dial-in their transmission, while the ultra-fast USB interface and intuitive Windows-based tuning software will satisfy even the most advanced tuners for no extra cost.
Our wiring harnesses are constructed from high-temperature, automotive-grade cross-linked polyethylene (GXL / TXL) wire and utilize the correct original equipment connectors for each transmission. The standard wiring harnesses are complete and require as few as three connections to produce an operating transmission.
The design of US Shift controllers and wiring harnesses are optimized to simplify installation and troubleshooting. Like our intuitive tuning software, our installation manuals are straightforward, well illustrated, and easy to follow. We also have ample, experienced technical staff to answer your questions and assist you with any concerns that you may have.
Most importantly, you will find that Baumann Electronic Controls is 100% dedicated to product reliability and customer satisfaction. All US Shift products come with a five-year full replacement / repair warranty and the best technical support in the industry, so you can be confident in choosing our products.
I contacted US Shift to see if anything was in the works and they were in the middle of Quick 6 development. I stayed in regular contact with Jake, and one day the Quick 6 became a reality. I was offered a Beta Tester slot and I jumped at the opportunity. This turned out to be a great experience. There were a couple of hiccups at first, but Karl was right there to work through it. Once we got the initial settings worked out, I began adjusting the tune. This time, I was able to take full advantage of the Quick 6 software (no constant-pressure valve-body). It was very easy to navigate and any questions I had were immediately answered. I spent a lot of time perfecting the programming to my liking.

I wanted to thank you all for your amazing product. I purchased a Quick 4 for my built GM 4L80E in January of 2017. I finally finished my truck. The shifts are perfect. Could not ask for a better product. The use of a Laptop makes the shift points even better. Thanks again.

I purchased a Quick 4 transmission controller to replace the [competitor's] controller in my 1970 Chevelle. I had been running the [competitor's] unit for several years and it worked OK, but was a royal pain to program and did not offer multiple tables like the Quick 4 does. My wife was not fond of riding in my Chevelle because it shifted so hard, which was what I wanted. The Quick 4 allows me to have a shifting profile for the wife, one for me, and an additional two to use for whatever. With the flip of a switch or the turn of a knob, I can switch between the tables and please my wife or myself.

New Circuit Board Design
10r80 Torque Converter
April 24, 2019
We know that it has been a while since we introduced this project, so an update is long overdue. Our first development phase for the 10R80/10L90 project has been hardware (printed circuit board or 'PCB') development. In order to properly support the 10R80, we needed additional circuitry in our controller. So, we started out with a Quick 6 controller that we modified by hand to add the new circuitry for Quick10 and to update our existing circuitry to improve manufacturing and operating efficiency.
Since the 10R80 operates with more solenoids energized at any given time than the 6R80, one of our main concerns was with heat buildup in the solenoid driver circuitry. We also needed to add new input circuitry to accommodate the additional sensors utilized in the 10R/10L transmissions. Once we had a working prototype, we performed thermal analysis to optimize the circuity and utilized thermal imaging to verify the results. We have also put extensive mileage on the car in the process, including several long road trips, and have had no problems thus far.

We are now in the process of designing our new PCB to implement the 10R80-specific circuitry, as shown in the CAD screenshot below. We hope to have new prototype PCBs in the coming weeks. At that point, we will verify the hardware and finish development of the 10R80 firmware. We will also need to spend time refining the shift quality for these transmissions, but we plan to begin beta testing the 10R80 controller later this year.

In the meantime, we are also planning to upgrade the interior of Silver Bullet with Marauder seating, console, and instrument cluster, among other things. We hope to post a video of this project phase within the next few months. Thank you for your interest in the project.
