Re: Talon SR vs Talon SRX vs New Victor vs Spark

Billfred has already mentioned what 4901 ran with.

5632 is running all Spark PWM motor controllers on our robot. I have been very pleased with their performance in all aspects and haven't had to replace a single one yet over the course of 37 matches plus test time.

Im a big fan of the PWM retaining features that the housing of the controller has that helps keep the PWM cables secure even in a game like FIRST Stronghold. Additionally, our intake makes use of the limit switch features that are built into the device.

When it comes to CAN controlled devices. I would recommend the SRX for the benefits you get with their PID control abilities.
