Re: Placing motor controllers on moving components?

We ran 12 srx talons on a bus with four 1' stubs. We did have some can bus errors. The errors didn't affect anything. We also tested with the bus running through 4 slip rings. It worked but we didn't compete like that. The can bus is quite robust.

Go ahead and try it. It worked for us. Just have a backup plan if you run into trouble.
