Victors were designed to use the same PWM signals as RC servos. Jaguars will work, but won't get the full range of outputs unless you recalibrate them. You might need a signal booster, depending on the receiver's ability to supply current.

I think that tamper-proof hardware isn't really appropriate unless you intend to be leaving the thing unattended for any length of time.
