So I suspect that your 9.6 volt input to your control device is not • actually
what the motors see on the outputs. I would estimate that the typical
internal loss will be in the 0.6 - 1.2 volt area.

I tried it "raw" without any controllers onto the excavator handset
compressor/controller and it was *seriously* better than the 8.4V PP3 I had
been using before. Of course with the PP3 there will be current issues, but
even so I was amazed at the difference.

I needed to redesign the drive train on another model (previously using 2
PP3 in parallel) as the 8 AAs at 9.6V, even after going through your r/c
controller, were enough to trash the drivetrain!

There are two issues here. 1. Can the motors sustain more than 9 volts without damage? If I was TLC designing motors for use by kids, I'd make sure there was a large safety margin. New batteries are typically 0.1 - 0.2 volts above their nominal 1.5 (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.technic)
