It must be a difference in controllers.   The sensitivity control gets me
any level of braking I want.  At most levels of sensitivity my controller
is _faster_ than the vehicle's brakes (ie the trailer starts pulling the
truck for a quick second when I apply the brake).  It also lets up _after_
the vehicle's brakes do.  As this implies, the delay is less and less as
you crank up braking power. 

I'd hate mine too if mine did what your does.
