Re: Denso motor Lead Gear specs?
Andy and Joe,
Thanks for your complete and detailed responses. I have to admit, all of your details have gone through my mind in the last 48 hours. I fully agree that the gear box is not an integral part of the motor, but a rule is a rule and we comply with the rules.
So, that being said, now I have to find a way to encode the azimuth of our turret. Without revealing too many secrets (Just kidding) I am currently baffled as to how to do it. We have no external ring gears to connect to. No central shaft exposed enough to tie into and the only point where the turret pivots around is in a location where a pot connected to it would not be able to be held to a reference point. Oh well, this isn't the biggest obstacle we have had to overcome.

Thanks again!!
