    How many steps does the servo card do?

    Reason i ask,
    I did a side by side comparison between SIOC and Phidgets. Same servo brand and swapped just to be sure. I used the airspeed offset.

    SIOC= silky smooth servo operation, almost as good as air-core gauge.

    Phidget= More jerky motion than FSX running on a P3 PC!!


    SIOC uses 1022 steps per 180deg

    Phidget looked like 512 to me.

    Kind of disappointed but maybe i'm missing something?

    737nut, at least you got you card working. My open cockpit servo card seems to have been a waste of money. Documentation is very hard to follow.
    hmm

    I can send you my code i use to try on yours if you like.

    The servo cards have been rock solid for me. Can't say that for the other cards.
