Re: Using Spikes to emulate Victors
RC car electronic speed controllers are much cheaper. They don't have the amp capacity of the first stuff but can take quite a bit. Tower hobbies is a place to start. If your project is a small robot , Servos can be modified for constant rotation. You can get some powerful servos. This would eliminate the speed controller. Don't forget VEX - Not a bad bang for the buck.
