My rotating tower for Golias V2 has a new motor. I finally
found the right motor to be used, a motor of an electric
window of a Ford car. Stepper motor is so good but
generates a lot of noise and vibration in low speeds. It
was necessary to reduce the speed of the new motor with
PWM. The mechanical coupling is so easy. I'm programming a
PIC processor to operate the tower with its rotation
motor, two servos and other devices as a spot light, infra-
red light, a video-quad to select between four cameras and
much more.
