With it connected in position control I get a run away pretty much. And it ignores my home sensor
I have a encoder I can use also from this servo motor on toolchanger. If that's a better option? I just Kinda thought that a closed loop stepper system eg a servo would be good enough. But happy up try other options. Just want the fastest option I can get..
