Mark, if you can figure out how to drive a standard model airplane servo
with EPIC, you'll be set.  Personally, I wouldn't bother.  There's a
perfect off the shelf solution in the PhidgetServo line.  They're trivial
to write software for.  It just doesn't get any easier.


Why did you pick EPIC over the Phidget line of products?
