Re: Talon SR vs Talon SRX vs New Victor vs Spark
For PWM control, we were very happy with the Talon SR in 2014 and used them exclusively. We planned to use them in 2015 again, but then the new control system came out and we opted to upgrade to the TalonSRX. However, we still have quite a few of the Talon SR speed controllers in excellent condition, including a fair number of brand new ones, still in their original unopened boxes. If anybody out there reading this would like to purchase some of our remaining stock of Talon SR speed controllers, please send me a PM.
For CAN control, we have been extremely pleased with the Talon SRX in 2015 and 2016. They just work. No problems, no surprises. We have used the built-in PID control in both position-control and rate-control configurations with encoders wired directly to the Talon SRX. We would recommend the Talon SRX very highly for any teams looking to upgrade to PID control within the speed controllers.
