We have an arm that "back-drives" when a tetra is on the arm and the motor is neutral.
The arm is on a Victor to provide speed control.
A spike would operate the arm too fast.

Can we wire a spike and a victor to the same motor?
Looking to operate it as follows

1. Raise Arm. (Victor controlling speed, spike controlling nothing really passing voltage through)
2. Arm Stopped. (Victor to neutral, spike to brake (rev & fwd = 1))
3. Lower Arm (sam as raise just other direction)

Is this legal?
Would it work?
Any other options we might try?

Thanks in advance,

Phil
