This was a wonderful presentation!

You made mention that the Talon SRX's can do a lot of "this" for you and that it is extensively documented. Are you just referring to the Feedback/Feedforward PID control built in to the Talons or can they execute a full trajectory/path? I have searched through the software manual for the Talon SRX (http://www.ctr-electronics.com/Talon%20SRX%20Software%20Reference%20Manual.pdf
) and didn't find any mention of motion planning/trajectories.

Looking through the source for CANTalon in WPILib I do see mention of trajectories and motion profiles. Is there additional documentation somewhere that I am missing that actually talks about using motion profiles?
