Re: Grey Jaguar No Power Out

Fixed my scope - broken ground reference wire.

Looks like the PWM signal is correct on both the Victor (smaller range) and Jaguar (larger range) settings.
The solid green/red light on the Jag does indicate full power is being ordered via PWM.

The Jag just reads 2v under at max while the victor reading equals max voltage.

This is all without any load. I created button controls to order full power, in addition to a throttle test.

I'll pick up motors tomorrow for further testing.
