Speaking as an inspector, we don't mind which color wire goes to which output terminal of the talon or any other speed controller to a motor. Strictly speaking, those don't have a polarity since the talon can reverse it based on the PWM signal it receives. It's only the input side we worry about, and as I said before, if you hook that up backwards you destroy the talon.

MANY teams have the speed controller output polarities flipped on one side of the robot.
