As a rookie team, we loaded up on 4 Victor 888s through FIRST Choice. Along with the 2 Victor SPs in the rookie kit and the 3 available through the PDV, this was an essentially free way to get ourselves 9 motor controllers. We anticipate the Victor 888s no longer being legal in the future, so we will look to use those up on this year's robot for sure.

With an emphasis on simplicity this first year, we will not attempt CAN and I highly doubt we would adopt a design calling for more than 9 motors. Victor 888s offered us the best value since we have certainty we will use them and we could get them for 50 credits. All of the other motor controllers in FIRST Choice cost 100 credits and are essentially of equal benefit to us this year since we will be using PWM.
