Servo Motor Torque Measurement and Control

[Prof Bill]

In my recent search for some "simple, cheap and cheerfull" methods of servo motor torque control of a Flight Simulator Jack, I discovered this most useful site that might be helpful to some builders who are agonising over some practical and theoretical FS building matters!

The site is well worth fully exploring as it is an extraordinary mine of very usefull information on many useful subjects.
