Hello cornholio,

I'm actually building both types of boats: model (1/4 scale) and real-sized; the first being a prelude to the second.

The RC boat starts with a "short kit" bought off of eBay - just the frame members (laser cut). I just have to put a skin on it.

I would dearly love a laser CNC machine to cut out the frame members for the real boat but many boat plans are not digitized (like mine) so the first thing I need to do is to turn a CNC machine into a giant "digitizer". Does experience doing that exist? It does seem doable and if I create the files I might be able to find someone to laser them for me for a price.

Thanks,
Tom

The MPG encoders are part of the inm module, so in halshow,
select hm2_7i96s.0.inm.00.enc0-count

Note that these are just raw counts and would need
the scale component to scale to position.

It might be easier to have some normal encoders brought out on the
parallel expansion connector since standard encoders have scaling built in.
