Speed Controllers

We were using jaguars, but something shorted out. Luminary Micro has no clue why, so we've ended up sticking to victors. They're working out pretty well.

We were trying the jags on the drivetrain, but tonight one let out a puff of smoke, and only works in one direction now. Tomorrow we swap them for victors.

As said before, the Jags are much more linear on the output... They're also twice as fast as the victors. 1075 is using them on our drive and steering motors. We had one smoke about 2 hours ago, no obvious reason why. Waiting on an RMA number from LM.

We're Using 4 Jags. I Like them so far but we're prepared to switch them out to Victors if need be.

I've noticed with the Jags they're much more sensitive than Victors. When we had a programming issue that cause the signal to the Speed Controller to change every time the code Looped the Jag Jumped a Lot more than the Victor Did.

This is because the Jags are capable of going down to 3% of full power while the Vics can only do 10%.
