/*
  IMPORTANT!!! This example is not intended for off the shelf
  H-Bridge based motor controllers. It is for home made H-Bridge
  controllers. Off the shelf controllers abstract away the need
  to invert the PWM (AKA Speed) value when the direction pin is set
  to high. This is for controllers that do not have that feature.
