Re: Speed controllers won't communicate w/robot controller

You say that plugging the other end into last year's RC made things work, so I doubt it's a connection problem at the Victor. But in case it is, we have discovered that this year's Victors are very finicky about exactly what angle the PWM cable pins are inserted at. Half the Victors weren't responding. I bent the pin on the white end just a teeny bit off center and suddenly all was well.
