how do you do break mode?

There's a jumper on the Jaguar... refer to the user's manual for the Jaguar on page 11.

The jumper is generally set to brake, and it's unlikely it's on coast unless someone on your team changed it.

If you're braking the jaguars, the only other option is spinning the wheels backwards, or slowing down before you stop.

Alternatively, Victors are by default set to coast. To change this, move the jumper on the Victor to a pair of pins including the one labeled "B".
