Controlling 6 motors

Does anyone have success in controlling 6 motors on a robot? They are not all on at once....our code is simple and not the issue. We think it is either a defective sidecar or a restrictive glitch in one of the drive Vi's

I can make 3 motors work perfect on any of the 10 PWM channels but when I try to initialize the 4th or more...the motors are erratic.

Another interesting quirk is that if I set the robotdrive VI to jaguar, 3 motors work perfect, BUT if I set the robotdrive VI to Victor, motors do not work....I am using Victor 888's

Any ideas greatly appreciated
