Re: Which speed controllers are you using this year?

Quote:
We are all PWM this year since there is a mix/match of controllers.
Thanks for the clarification, let me clarify my statement. From the rules and from a signal standpoint mix and match is allowed. From a team management standpoint of the electrical and programming teams, doing it ONE way is best. When it's crunch time we don't need to remember who has what, how they are connected, VI calls, etc. they are all the same - PWM.

Its part of my "KISS - Keep It Simple" rule where "Less is More".
