CAN Speed Controllers need an enable 'flag' to be sent out over CAN before they output anything. That enable 'flag' (or lack thereof) presumably wouldn't affect devices that it doesn't need to.

The VRM does have enough capacity to run the RoboRIO, but that configuration will most likely not be legal for competition.
