I don't think that's a fair characterization.

The PIDF in the SRX is meticulously documented in the SRX Software Reference Manual, and many teams have commented on how well it works. CTRE's chief software engineer Omar Zrien monitors these forums and stands ready to personally help any team having problems.

By wonky, I mean it didn't work the first time they tried it. 30 mins of actually reading the documentation fixed the problem. No complaints since it works well now.

Re: Talon sr, or SRX?

We have 11 SR's on robot + 10 SR's + 1 Victor on practice.
We have obtained 5 SRX's but have not had time to explore them - and until then will stay with SR's. (yeah late adopters)

Intrigued by SRX's expanded functionality (CAN, local PID) - but not a priority at this point - Happy with SR's performance.
I suspect next year we will be using SRX's, maybe even later this year(?)
