Re: Speed Controller Preference

We used both last year, Jags on the drive train, victors on everything else.

Victors; Tried and true, fairly bullet-proof.

Jaguars; Nice linear response, motors were much quieter with higher frequency response, held up well so far. Waiting for CAN bus to hopefully simplify wiring.

We're happy with both, hopefully we will be allowed to continue to choose which controller we wish to use for our specific applications.
