 +====== Speed Controllers ======
 +Speed controllers connect the radio control receivers to the motors of the robot. They translate the signals sent by the R/C transmitter so the motors know how fast to turn, and in which direction (forward or reverse). Originally [[Antweights]] did not require speed controllers as the [[servos]] they used for drive had controller boards built in. Now most Antweights use the micro gear [[motors]] speed controllers are more common.
