controlling the speed that a PID on the talon moves an arm

I can tell you that I feel happiest when I am giving or doing for others. I do not expect anything in return but just knowing that I can make things better, in my small way, makes me happy. - Steve W [more]

That's a good point. The OP asked for rate-limiting, and the Talon's Ramp rate or Closed-Loop ramp rate could be used to accomplish this.

Unrelated but... capping the throttle limits can be done using the peak and nominal output settings.

As always, see Talon software reference manual and git hub examples for more info.
