Didn't think of using the plusMinusAverage node but it works! I connected the rotation of the Master FK controller to input3D[0] and rotation of the FK controllers (not the set groups) to input3D[1] of the plusMinusAverage node. I also had to connect the rotation of the FK Master controller to the rotation of each set group to make the controllers follow correctly.
Thank you for the advice!
