Hi Jim!<br>Good luck with your project! I spent lots of time looking for a good motor controller. I'm pretty happy with the LMD18200T- although you will need to supply them with 12V...<br><a href="http://www.datasheetcatalog.com/datasheets_pdf/L/M/D/1/LMD18200T.shtml">http://www.datasheetcatalog.com/datasheets_pdf/L/M/D/1/LMD18200T.shtml</a><br>

I'm looking to drive a couple of GHM-01 motors using differential steering.<br>
Which parts did you end up using for a motor controller?<br>
