Re: New Talon Speed Controller

There are some other differences:

- Smaller footprint
- Lower mass
- Improved ingress protection
- Secure PWM connection
- Brake is maintained during disable
- PWM input can be split (2 Talons on one PWM channel)
- Higher switching frequency
- Lower on-state resistance
- Locked anti-phase rectification
- Clear polarity indicators
- Smart LED
