Re: LabVIEW code to drive 4 motor chassis

That should work alright then for four Talons.
The additional inverts are fine.

So,
  • Double check the orientation of the PWM cables going to the two Talons that don't light up.
  • Pull the breakers for the Talons that are working, then test using the unlit Talons to see if they output any power. It's possible they just need to be calibrated.
  • You can also try taking one of the PWM cables running to a working Talon and connect it to one of the non-working Talons to see if it's the cable itself.
