The Sabertooth 2X60 is one of the most versatile, efficient and easy to use dual motor drivers on the market. It is suitable for high powered robots - up to 120lbs in combat or up to 1000lbs for general purpose robotics.

Out of the box, the Sabertooth can supply two DC brushed motors with up to 60A each. Peak currents of 120A per channel are achievable for a few seconds.

Overcurrent and thermal protection means you'll never have to worry about killing the driver with accidental stalls or by hooking up too big a motor.

Sabertooth allows you to control two motors with: analog voltage, radio control, serial and packetized serial. You can build many different robots of increasing complexity for years to come with a Sabertooth. Sabertooth has independent and speed+direction operating modes, making it the ideal driver for differential drive (tank style) robots and more.

The operating mode is set with the onboard DIP switches so there are no jumpers to lose. Sabertooth features screw terminal connectors - making it possible for you to build a robot without even soldering.

Sabertooth is the first synchronous regenerative motor driver in its class. The regenerative topology means that your batteries get recharged whenever you command your robot to slow down or reverse. Sabertooth also allows you to make very fast stops and reverses - giving your robot a quick and nimble edge.

Sabertooth has a built in 5V 1A Switch-mode BEC that can supply power for your receiver or microcontroller, as well as 3-4 standard analog servos. The lithium cutoff mode allows Sabertooth to operate safely with lithium ion and lithium polymer battery packs - the highest energy density batteries available.

Sabertooth's transistors are switched at ultrasonic speeds (24kHz) for silent operation.

Sabertooth 2X60 uses 0.8 milliohm MOSFETs in its bridge.

Use of our motor drivers with cheap AC adapters is not recommended. Use a battery or at least put a battery in parallel with a DC supply.

    Good product

    The shipping took about 15 days from the US to Brazil (they needed some time to process the tax fees). The product has good quality, good structure.

    this unit works far better than the cy one best option for robotic tank style driving

    Not sure how many I have bought in total. Never had a problem. Bit disappointed with the current delivery time.

    Heat Sink was really loose , come to find out if you tighten the screws on the fan it tightens the heat sink

    I personally can't comment. I manufacture an item that we use it on. I contract the electronics out. The Sabertooth is driven by Arduino. It is doing what we want it to do very well. We are about to go into production and hopefully be taking a lot more from you.

    I used this to power an electric pontoon boat that was converted to paddle wheel. Works great
