thanks 1680Bruce, but I understand how victors control a motor with varying pulses. I also understand that the control signal going into a victor is different than what comes out. What goes on in between these two signals is a mystery.
let's say I used some general microcontroller. Pretend that the "servo-type" signal goes into this microcontroller. Now i'm guessing that this microcontroller needs to measure the time of the input pulse. The time of the input pulse could then be applied to some formula or something to transform it to "motor-type" control signal.
How would one go about measuring the length of the "servo-type" pulse?

No, as stated in my first post, I am attempting to design my own controller.
