Re: DIY Robot + CIMs?

If you do not expect to exceed 40A for more than a very short period, this looks like a good solution. If you're going to get into a pushing contest, or other application where you need more than a quarter horsepower mechanical output per motor for any length of time, switch to FRC-legal motor controllers.
