That is an awesome mod. I have one of your spinner kits (you had to fix it for me), so I may have to figure out how to make this work with my kit. When this mod is done, is the speed of the movement still adjustable? I only ask this since I am a relative newbie to all this electronic stuff. Thanks very much for posting what I am sure will be a popular mod for your awesome kits.
