Limit on number of Jaguars?

Sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum...

But is there a limit on how many Jaguars we can have on our bot?

I didn't find anything in the rules.

Re: Limit on number of Jaguars?

You have to have one speed controller per motor. So:
5 cims
2 Fp's
2 555's
4 Nippons are up for grabs

You can use up to a total of 13 Jaguars or Victors. If you buying new speed controllers, IFI does have the victors on sale.

In other words, there's no limit except for the limit to the number of motors.

Re: Limit on number of Jaguars?

Eugene,
There is no limit on the number of speed controllers you may have other than complying with the motor rules that require controllers only.
