Connected my motor controllers to a couple of 12v motors just to test the configuration. The tractor control with one 2-axis joystick is fantastic and exactly what I'm looking for. It's a little more sensitive than I care for, I think due to having 10k ohm potentiometers on the joystick. The controller documentation recommends 1-5k ohm potentiometers but I hadn't read that far when I ordered the 10k model.
