Re: What will it take to overheat A victor?
I think it would be interesting to see the data that IFI has collected during the manufacturing/testing phases of the Victor Speed Controllers. I'm sure they have quantitatively analyzed them and their thermal characteristics to determine their efficiencies, as this would be a very appropriate concern. Many people use their speed controllers, not only besides in the FRC (Robot Wars and all that) and in a lot of other robotics applications. At the university I go to, its not uncommon to see victor's in many of the robots that the college of engineering develops, and most people would have never heard of FRC.
