    Hello! I appreciate any and all help in advance..
    I Read somewhere that the IBT2 motor controllers can burn out / or cause issues so went ahead and ordered the 100 Amp dual Motor controllers for my 3 DOF Build.. So 2 should work for the 3 motors..

    If I had to guess I go Yellow (LBW) goes to PA on the 100Amp, then the R_EW and L_EW go to A1 and A2?
