Jaguar/Victor Limit?

Is there a limit on the number of Jaguars or victors we can use on the robot? I know there is a limit on motors, but are we allowed virtually unlimited jaguars?

Thanks!

Re: Jaguar/Victor Limit?

Well... You do have to fit all of them within size and cost constraints. You also have to supply them with a connection to the DSC (per [R60]).

But other than that, no.

No, unlimited Jaguars would exceed the robot total weight limit :-)

All seriousness aside, you are not permitted to have more Jaguars than the total number of "electrical loads" on your robot as described below:
[R46]

Each power-regulating device (speed controller or relay module) shall control one and only one electrical load (motor, actuator, electric solenoid, or compressor).
