Go to Post I truly love zipties. They're so elegant - permanent, yet disposable. Strong, yet flexible. Ubiquitous, yet somehow.... special. - Kris Verdeyen [more]

The drive isn't too sensitive. In the video was when we were testing it and we were using different code and different drivers. Our drivers are great with the drive. Our turret does move. It is on a 180 degree turret. Thanks for the input.
