TALON FX®

Engineered for extreme performance in competitive robotics, custom industrial automation, and advanced hobby builds, the Talon FX® platform sets the benchmark for integrated onboard motion control. It integrates directly into high-output brushless motors like the Kraken X60 and Kraken X44- and is available standalone via the Talon FXS® for standalone motors (such as Minion® motors), delivering industrial-grade power, maximum efficiency, and seamless software integration.

Battle-tested at the highest level of competitive robotics with over 27,000+ units used during the 2026 FRC season (more than all competitors combined) it offers proven reliability where performance matters most.

THE TALON FX® LINEUP

  • Kraken X60: Integrated brushless power for heavy-duty drivetrains and high-load mechanisms.
  • Kraken X44: Compact integrated brushless performance for space-constrained mechanisms.
  • Talon FXS®: Flexible control for standalone motors such as the Minion® motor, or third-party brushless motors.

KEY PRODUCT BENEFITS
