From my understanding, the first company that started "dynamicaly varying timing" is GM with the GM90 & GM120(no need for firmware upgrade for those).

It is also available to older GM95, GM100, ... but then it needs firmware upgrade(cost 20euros I think).
Then TEKIN & LRP/NOSRAM caught up. But in different ways, TEKIN provided update via software(nice), whereas LRP/NOSRAM created new product (need to buy new ESC...more ESCs sold that way).
LRP/NOSRAM models that have that feature are "stock spec" in their name.
Novak then also released a new ESC for this.

Today I know at least those that do have the feature of variable timming as a function of RPM("dynamicaly varying timing"):
# GM90, GM120 & any older ones+firmware update (+gives options of RPM range for timing advance, not tried without sensor wire)
# Tekin (+gives options of RPM range for timing advance)
# LRP "SPX stock spec" & "SXX stock spec" (be carefull with SXX model if you buy second hand only the "mkIII" is bug free
# NOSRAM "Matrix stock spec" & "Pearl stock spec" (same comment as above about the pearl=SXX)
# Novak Kinetic (+gives options of RPM range for timing advance... :not tried myself, but says on website)

Any other Brand, I don't know... I thought ezrun, speedpassion could only change timming fixed for each run...(so when they go faster, they have less torque... no gain)
