Truth is. With a good controller. Your TV and trailer should stop as one. No jerking, no pull from the trailer. you should not even notice the trailer brakes come on, or go off.
My Prodigy achieves this great braking action. I can't even tell it comes on. But I know the TT brakes are working, because I can hear the Tt tire cry under heavy braking.
Now with the factory controller in my truck. I have the same action. So no. Quality controllers do NOT jerk in town or on the highway. IF your trailer brakes jerk in town. you have the wrong controller, OR you have the gain set way too high.
