Tilt Servo #5

Closed pc6b closed 7 years ago

pc6b commented 7 years ago

Hi Paul,

As discussed recently I suppose to change the stepper motor to a RC servo in the tilt mechanism. Steppers are loosing steps and after a few hundred revolvings in large projects the end position drifts away. RC servos doesn't have this problems if they stall lightly against a spring coil on to the end position of the vat. They are also much cheaper.

Kind regards

Bruno
