Re: Talons??

Thanks for the messages. We are in preseason training here and have three drive bases we want to have running or team practice and training. I just thought since the new Talons were out maybe there we some deals out there on past, older versions, that we could buy for relatively cheap. We need about 6-8 of them.

Thanks for all the advice

The old talons were discontinued over a year ago. I seem to recall there may have briefly been a few discounts available on them, but the stock sold out a LONG time ago.

Echoing what others have pointed out though, Spark controllers may be the direction you want to go if you're looking for a cheap way to emulate the old Talons.

I'd try contacting teams in your area, if you're really set on using Talon SR's. I'd offer some from 2667, but I'm pretty sure ours are all tied up in our 2015 practice drive chassis and t-shirt cannon.

Failing that, I'll third the recommendation for Sparks-- they're probably cheaper than any deal you'll get on another FRC speed controller, and they're definitely in stock.
