Re: [FRC Blog] The 2016 Season, by the Numbers 2

This is supported Strongly by the fact that there are 6962 Talons reported and 7731 CANTalons reported. Given the learning curve involved, I would expect the number of talons used to be much higher.
All reported PWM motor controllers: 14821
All reported CAN motor controllers: 7750

Based on the observational data across events that REV folks attended we think that the number is actually somewhere like 2/3 of teams use PWM and 1/3 use CAN, so the error bars on the data might be pretty wide. I suspect the CAN data is more accurate due to the way that they are addressed in code.
