Re: Jaguar vs. victor vs. talon speed controllers

Our team has used jaguars and victors the past few years we have used jaguars . this year we have decided to go with the talons . jaguars are large and bulky you can fit two talons in the space of one jaguar. if you use ten talons instead of ten jaguars you save about a pound of weight if i remember from our calculations. jaguars can be used in either CAN or PWM which Talons and victors can only use PWM. victors are the cheapest and talons and jaguars are a little more expensive. and if you buy talons from what i know any talon on a 40amp breaker must have a fan which you will have to supply and mount your self.
hope this helps
