Re: PWM Connection Legality?
The 2013 manual is still on the FIRST web page it's just under the archived section: http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprogr...-event-results

I know that you must control all motors using a FIRST approved motor controller or spike relay. The only execption is controlling a servo. Then that is connected directly to the side car, with the jumper added to put power to the PWM cable.
