My point is that if you experienced systematic problems with the IFI control system, it was probably something you were doing incorrectly, because when used properly all of IFI's stuff just plain works. Do their products have things that could be better? Sure, everything does, but what they have is pretty darn good.
It's also not fair to IFI, who has been a fantastic supporter of FIRST, to insinuate that their products are anything less than quality, which is clearly not the case.

We've released the magic white smoke on a number of Victors in the past few years, and to our knowledge, we hadn't done anything wrong, (aside from not being careful enough with metal shavings falling in). I am, however, more inclined to believe you. What could we have done wrong to burn them out? What happened to you guys?
Hopefully with this knowledge and some care, we won't burn out any more victors, or jaguars if they are prone to the same weak points.
