There is no "power" limit as such. But the "roboRIO is limited to a max current output of 2.2A on the 6V rail (12.4W of electrical input power). Teams should make sure that their total servo power usage remains below this limit at
all times."

So there is a max power output of 12.4 watts that will be your limiting factor

Unlimited PWM COT's servos are allowed, so there should not be a problem with the 3-wire VEX servo
