Re: Can Victor and Jaguar motors work together on a single gearbox?
Generally no, the pwm rates for Victors and Jaguars are different, so they would not work off a splitter. Additionally they provide different powers at the same joystick position unless you do a bunch of fancy programming to equalize the 2.(I have not heard of anyone attempting this)

It is recommended to always use the same controllers for multi-motor gearboxes.
