Re: Speed Controller Preference
Our team used all jaguars this year and I was pleased with both their performance and price. The only issues that our team had with the jaguars was, our jaguar that controlled the motor that moved our spiral which moved the moon rocks to the top, stop working in the forward motion twice. Unfortunately this happened in the finials causing us to lose a match. The weird part of this is that the jaguar stilled worked in reverse as well as the other functions, the only thing that did not work was the forward motion. When we opened them up on both occasions we found that the circuit board had melted in one spot near the fan. We sent them back to Luminary micro for analysis but we have not herd any thing back. Our belief is that it something unique about the way we had the motor set up and the amps it drew. Other then the problem above we had no problems and all the original jaguars are still on our machine. I would suggest that teams start using jaguars if they have not already. I also look forward to exploring the new features that we will be evadible this year.
