Re: blog; Motor Controller Options for 2015
Well, this will certainly change the way we do wiring a little bit, but I'm sure we'll still come up with a way to make it look nice. I like that the mounting holes are in a line parallel with the case and a nice round 2.000" apart, rather than at opposite corners across a diagonal. I also like that we can pack a bajillion of these into a small area, and do not need to design our chassis around the width of a row of speed controls.

Also, I like that I don't have to practically write a whole grant just to put some speed controls on our robot.

Thank you VEX and CTRE!
