2468 retrofitted our 2014 robot with Sparks; a quick and simple swap for the Talon SR. These were powering the CIMs of the drive (dual CIM VEX ball shifters). No notable problems with the students driving it "hard" and no noticeable change in driver response.

I did notice a behavioral quirk of our students.. when we have a new robot and we don't want them to over stress things too much they typically do... and when you have new-to-us motor controllers that you *do* want them to abuse, they don't. Weird.
