IWSTI Addict since: Sep 2005 Trader Rating: (0) | Just thinking out loud here... Stepper motors and actuators are fairly cheap. So are microprocessors and little lcds. Who's to say you couldn't make your own in-cabin damping controller like the EDFC or TEAS for your KW's or Megan's? http://www.cs.uiowa.edu/~jones/step/types.html http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive...o_drive_a.html A parts list would look something like this: two atmel butterfly's (one for the front and one for the rear...atractive because for $30 it includes an lcd, a user interface joy/button/and the microcontroller) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AVR_Butterfly) 4 stepper motors (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepper_motor) a lot of wire wire insulation/heat shrink some way to enclose the steppers and protect them from the elements lots of time (yes...I understand that I pitch a hairbrained idea to you guys about once a month) This ad is not endorsed by this member.
