Steppers are Sanyo Denki Type 103H7126-0740. As I said our mill came plug and play so the controller is a finished unit, I have no idea about the single controllers.

Yeah well I'm waiting for the LiPos and a Phoenix 85HV. In the end I changed the power system: I will run a large outrunner from Danlions on 10s. This is overkill I know but I would never have got the correct CG with my previous setup.

No... I think I'll order the Phoenix 85HV directly from the USA... here in Switzerland nobody seems to have it in stock! On the website of eflight.ch they have it marked as "in stock" why in the world are they not sending it to me then???
