I’m not sure what you are referring to by cross talk, but we choose to use coarse gears for our drive to account for any servo misalignment. As far as the servos fighting each other, it is very minimal and only towards the limits of their travel.

Very cool, I would be interested in seeing how to work the math for this. (Im a programmer by training so most problems involving the real world are beyond my skills in physics)
By cross talk I am referring to the nasty problem of when the wires from your servo (or sensor) act as an antenna and pick up the magnetic field from the wires on your motors. I recall 2006 when we would turn on the shooter wheels and our camera servos would go crazy.
