Do you think im better of trying to get ahold of a compatible megatorque driver. Im seeing them around on ebay for what looks like 400 - 500. On Fri, 26 Jul 2013, Curtis Dutton wrote: > Date: Fri, 26 Jul 2013 18:00:39 -0400 > From: Curtis Dutton > Reply-To: "Enhanced Machine Controller (EMC)" >

Ok so I did figure out that this is a megatorque motor with analog resolvers on it. It seems to be a 3 phase motor with A+, A-, B+, B-, C+, C connections. I'm thinking about attempting to build a controller for this thing. The problem is, I'm not sure how this operates compared to a standard 3 ph
