Any thoughts would be great to consider.

Look at bullet points 3, 4, and 5 (phase lag, moment of inertia, controller period). That's why your results were less than spectacular.

You could improve your results by adding a shooter wheel (increase moment of inertia) and increasing the Talon broadcast frequency (decrease the phase lag).

But if you have CAN Talon, why aren't you using its built-in speed controller?
