Originally we made the decision to update from Phoenix 5 to 6 so that when the CANcoders on the drivetrain are disconnected, the robot will switch to relative encoders.

2024 update to Phoenix allows us to have both Phoenix 5 and Phoenix 6 as dependencies. I would opt for including them both so we can keep our old features while also giving us the ability to use new motors such as the Krakens. The CANCoder class is deprecated and it is recommended to use the v6 version. Phoenix 5 will stay so we don't have to remove the CANCoder classes, but I'd say we should do it now that we can safely install Phoenix 6. |
