Re: CAN to PWM converter?

IIRC, the CAN protocol used for FRC is pretty heavily modified and kept under wraps to prevent tampering.

If you do somehow figure out the protocol, you would need to use a microprocessor to a. spoof a talon SRX and b. translate the commands into PWM values.

I can't really help you with anything, sorry. If you wanted to try to reverse-engineer the protocol, I would start with the firmware files, or maybe see if it's on robotpy's github.
