Giving a Little to Get a Little

Dr. Joe,

Everything you said is true, but if you are willing to give up the constraint of keeping the motor running exactly at a specific desired point, then the planetary setup is viable. I admit that there is a lot of testing and compensating involved, but I have a lot of data so far and am really close to getting it to work as I have predicted. My biggest obstacle is pushing my way through P-basic (I am, afterall, a mechanical guy) to get the control system to do what I want.
