I am referring to him having the ability to control the transformation, although it gets progressively more difficult the closer to noon it is. I do not expect Escanor to be able to control himself in his day form... but, from the looks of things, his lack of control isn't that he attacks everything in a rampage... but, that his ideals, values and personality change, making him seem like a different person. Therefore he dislikes going outside, not because he can't control his transformation, but, because his lack of control over himself, in the day, turns him into a "new" person.

However, upon reading your latest comment and reflecting upon the idea of his control... he might have worked on his control from the time we see him in the side story and the time we see him walking with the sins? It's just a guess... but, could it be that his second transformation is what he is reffering to when he says "lost control"? Because, in the flashback with the sins... he was the same height as he was during his first transformation at Dawn and he seemed to be in control of himself then... simply prideful. Whilst in the prescence of the other sins, he did not appear to be a threat or a concern... even King who was shown to be uneasy about Escanor, didn't seem to have a problem with it... granted this was in chapter 5. I just feel like Escanor's power is way to complicated for us to guess right now. I suppose there is no real reason to debate this topic... considering we will eventually get all the information we are missing in due time... however, if my thought is incorrect then i would agree with what you put in the second paragraph @Rrmcklin, he probably is referring to himself getting carried away.
