Re: Stalling the BaneBot 775 motors

Ether,
I am basing the statement on the experience of rise time vs inductance with any motor. Since the Jaguar is switching at 15kHz, current through any motor may not be able to rise to full stall current during a short pulse. I am simply suggesting that an estimate of power dissipated can be made if one ignores rise time for this discussion.
