Re: Spikes
spikes and victors are used for controlling motors pneumatics

spikes can only go full forwards full backwards or off

whereas victors are variable speed and operate on a scale of 0 to 254, 127 being neutral, 254 full speed forward, 0 full speed backwards.


there are only supposed to be 4 spikes and 4 victors in the kit and only the amount needed to operate your motors is needed i.e if you have 2 motors you want to have variable speed control over and 1 motor you want on or off control over you would need 2 victors and 1 spike
