Buy an Axon, Axon II, or Axon Mote and build a great robot, while helping to support SoR.

Dear Admin,In the h-bridge tutorial you mentioned two things that caught my attention:- The signal to the MOSFETs should be amplified- A = 1, B = 1 means a shortB) Can you prevent a short somehow? Is there some kind of inverse-MOSFET out there that could shut off the current to B when A = 1, and vice versa? If so, could you also implement short-circuit protection in an improved circuit?
I would like to add a question:D) I've been warned by some not to try building H-bridges for DC motors myself since they tend to not withstand the massive currents from DC motors. (I'm talking regular 1:10 RC-car motor, 7,2V). I therefore bought an expensive one (118 USD) instead of making my own. What are your experiences from home made H-bridges? What size motors have you guys driven with them?
ALZ, could you post schematics of your setup? I don't really see why people warned me so much, apparently you can make your own and if built right they're much cheaper and with similar performance. Thanks ALZ.
