SmartDriveDuo-30 is one of the latest smart series motor drivers designed to drive medium power brushed DC motor with current capacity up to 80A peak (few seconds) and 30A continuously, each channel. This driver is designed specially for controlling differential drive mobile robot using RC controller. Nevertheless, MDDS30 also can be controlled using analog joystick or microcontroller (PWM, Serial). MOSFETs are switched at 18 KHz to ensure quiet operation and no annoying whining sound. Besides, it also equipped with a microcontroller unit to provide smart features such as multiple input modes and current limit and thermal protection.
Features:- Speed controller to drive two DC Motors
- Bi-directional control for dual brushed DC motor.
- Support motor voltage from 7V to 35VDC.
- Maximum current up to 80A peak (1 second), 30A continuously, each channel.
- On board MOSFETs are switched at 18 KHz for quiet operation.
- Battery low voltage indicator. -Battery over voltage indicator.
- Thermal protection.
- Current limit protection.
- Multiple input modes: RC, Analog/PWM, Serial Simplified and Serial Packetized.
- GROVE compatible connectors for control input.
- RC (Radio Control) friendly connectors.
- On board push buttons for fast test and manual operation.
- On board LED indicators for Error, RUN, Over current, motor output, for each channel.
- NO POLARITY PROTECTION FOR V MOTOR.
- Dimension: 81.28mm(W) x 101.60mm (L) x 42mm (H)

The motor controller is truly plug and play. Straight out of the box you can attach it to a robot (or motor/s) and be on your way. I have a sabertooth 2x32 and a roboclaw 2x45 and with this being about half the price of those it holds its own pretty impressively. The customer support is second to none. I have had to contact all 3 companies for technical issues and all three were great but Cytron was the best.Pros:Plug and playEasy to configure the different modes right on the controllerPlenty of powerGreat costumer service and supportCons:Its about 3 times as big as the other controller I mentioned(but thats only a con if you are working with minimal space. Wasnt a problem for me)There is no usb connection and no way to fine tune things such as ramping: rate of break, acceleration and all that other stuff. The presets Work just fine for me but if you require very specific settings you wont be able to achieve that with this model. The presets have worked plenty fine for me though.To sum it up this is a great motor controller for the money, very well biult. If you are going to biuld a robot buy it!!!

The is a plug & play controller! I have used other controllers in the past that required adjustments to get started, but not here. I really like the on-board test features, it makes it very easy to test your motors before proceeding. If you're looking for a good robotics controller or building an RC lawnmower project this is a great option!Well priced & comes with the 3 & 4 pin hobby wires needed!

The product is good for plug in, but if you are a hobbyist and like to tweak things around be very carful the board have 0 protection circuits, any mistake you blow up the microcontroller, I blow up 2 boards already. just wrong wire touches the board it is gone.Cytron: please work on that, even if that increase the price, that still worth it. the quality is high great looking finished product but need some circuit protection added to the design
