Re: change pwm range preserve input sensitivity
To be more specific, you should range the PWM from about 136 to 232. The Victor has a deadband from 117 to 137, and it reaches 100% output at 232. All detailed at the IFI FAQ:

EDIT: Strike that, didn't see you still wanted reverse on there. You can range from 100 to 232. Note that you'll get a max of about 20% power in the reverse direction.
