I thought so too, and was about to respond saying so, but I couldn't locate the relevant rule to quote. Can you help me find what I'm certain I'm overlooking? So far, I haven't seen anything in the manual that says each Victor can connect to only one motor. The closest is <R98> which limits Spike relay modules to a single motor. <R91> restricts things in the other direction: "Each motor, actuator, and compressor must be connected to one, and only one, speed controller or relay module." But it doesn't say you can't connect multiple motors to the same speed controller.
