Sabertooth use control 2
Sabertooth use control 2 motors. How many motors you are using?
You can simply adjust DIP switch on sabertooth to fit in your system. What I suggest is to use RC Tx/Rx like this:http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/_9042__Hobby_King_2_4Ghz_6Ch_Tx_Rx_V2_Mode_2.html and have two motors to control your bot. Here is the video to show how you wire controller with RC:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqNDGZ1MlCs

Depends on how heavy is your machine. Mine is about 60~70 pounds with 2 escooter motors with sabertooth 25x2 controller.
