Included Hardware:

• Black Jaguar, Stellaris® Brushed DC Motor Control Module with CAN (MDL-BDC24)
• 24 inch PWM cable
• 12 gauge red wire with ring terminal, 12 inches
• 12 gauge black wire with ring terminal, 12 inches
• 2.5" CIM motor
• Two - Individual Crimp on Ferrules
• 40 Amp Snap Action Breaker
• 24 inch CAN cable kit
  

Product Overview:
This is a complete kit that would include everything you need to add a motor to any controls package.  This is a great addition if ordering the cRIO Ready Kit, Electronics for chassis system without the cRIO, or the Cross Link Controls Kit, Electronics for two drive wheels.  Add two of these and you can have four driving wheels.
