Re: speed controller for fisher price

I don't know if hobby RC receivers will give the proper signal to work with a victor. It says they are not for use with hobby RC equipment. There is a "signal driver" cable at the bottom of this page http://www.robotmarketplace.com/mark...ifi_acces.html that may be required (also direct from IFI on this page http://www.ifirobotics.com/victor-88...r-robots.shtml)

Also, you should note that the Novak EVX has smart braking and the victor has jumper selected braking (when the throttle value is neutral) only.
