Re: What do you think of the jaguars?
To add two cents worth, we switched from Victors to Jaguars
on our drive in order to enable reliable operation of current sensed
traction control. The 120 hz chop rate of the victors was too low
to be smoothed out adequately with an RC fiter we put on the
current sensor. We did note that we lost a little top end speed
with this change, but the resulting traction control was worth
the trade.

The 40 amp current limit on the Jaguars was pretty aggressive
and we did hit that limit during testing with a gearbox that was
binding a bit. We did not have any Jaguars fail.
