This ensures motors on the same side receive the same signal ("skid steering"). The Sabertooth's BEC can be used to power a microcontroller up to ~~1A. If additional current is needed, consider using a spare XT30 split off from by the main battery to power the microcontroller and disconnect the 5V (red) cable from the BEC.
