speed controllers & circuit breakers

I've heard that the speed controllers require a 40 amp circuity breaker. Is that true? Can we use 30 amps instead? If you can only use 40, that'd limit our # of speed controllers to 4, because you can only use 4 40amp circuit breakers. Thanks a lot.

40 amps

The motors that require a 40 amp breaker are the drills and CIMs/Atwoods/Chipuas whatever you call them. Since the 40 amp breakers have not shipped yet, you are allowed to use the 30 amp breakers until they come in. All other motors require other circuit breakers so read the manual to find out what goes where.
