Stepper motor control?
« on: May 21, 2016, 09:51:52 pm »
I've got a gimbal that is controlled with stepper motors but the Revolution only has connections for servo motors. Is there anyway control stepper motors with the Revolution board?

If that's not possible, I may be able to modify the gimbal to use servos instead.

Stepper motor are not supported.
This output type should need 3 outputs per motor and some fet/driver module for that.
