| Recall, these settings are //only// for the 2x12 R/C (not the full featured 2x12 without R/C in the product name). We want to turn off mixing mode, exponential, lithium mode, and acceleration ramping since the TCB can handle all these internally. Note the 2x12 R/C has a manual calibration mode. The default calibration from the factory will work perfectly with the TCB, but if you previously stored some other calibration setting on your Sabertooth, you will need to run through the manual calibration routine once more while connected to the TCB. Read the Sabertooth manual for more. | Recall, these settings are //only// for the 2x12 R/C (not the full featured 2x12 without R/C in the product name).

| Pololu sells two models of [[https://www.pololu.com/category/97/pololu-qik-dual-serial-motor-controllers|Qik controllers]] - the 2s12v10 (dual 13 amp continuous, 30 amp peak) and the 2s9v1 (dual 1 amp continuous, 3 amp peak). The 2s12v10 should have plenty of power to control virtually any 1/16th scale tank. | Pololu sells two models of [[https://www.pololu.com/category/97/pololu-qik-dual-serial-motor-controllers|Qik controllers]] - the 2s12v10 (dual 13 amp continuous, 30 amp peak) and the 2s9v1 (dual 1 amp continuous, 3 amp peak).
