Closed-loop position and speed control at 1000 Hz. No worries about jitter/overruns messing up 20Hz PID tuning on cRIO.

Motor current and motor voltage (can be used to monitor motor internal temperature via resistance).

Current feedback can be used to implement torque limiting for traction control.
