I am working on a small project. I am currently running two cim motors via VictorSp:

Using an Arduino Uno:

but I want to b able to control my motors with a reciever. Is it possible to connect the Victors directly to the Vex controller:

since they are pwm ports? If so, can I just program the Victors as I would motors? That way I can just use one of the vex recievers to control my motors...

The Arduino Servo library can be used to control speed controllers like the Victor SP.

It's definitely possible. Just program them like the Vex EDR motors.

you can plug them in to the cortex just like you would the vex motor controllers, you could even use a talon or a jaguar, they all use the same rc pwm
