Inverting Talon SRX

I looked in the manual in there really is nothing as easy as random_motor->SetInvertedMotor(); which is inconvenient. A search of the manual brings up inverting a slave motor, but it doesn't really help. I think we will just stick with moving the forward limit switch to the bottom, and reverse to the top.
Thanks for the help!

You will need to fix it in the wiring. If the Talon is green (positive throttle) it will only check the forward limit switch. What causes the Talon to be green (closed-loop, slaving, slave-invert) instead of red (Reverse) can be controlled by Reverse Sensor and Reverse Closed-Loop output. But the limit switch is compared against the final output.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I wish we didn't have to do that, but as long as it works it's fine.
