Assuming (as I did, perhaps incorrectly) that Team 3997 changed the code to use the proper WPILib driver for each motor controller, and calibrated the motor controllers appropriately, is there any other reason to expect "the big difference in the speed of the drivetrain" they noticed? For example, is there any reason to think that the difference between the Jag and Talon switching designs might interact with a CIM to produce such an effect? Have any other teams noticed a difference (or no difference) in top-end motor speed with Jag vs Talon?
