Have been browsing thru all the various libraries available here and just came across the PPM Library. My project was to move 4 steppers to follow a joystick which is indicating range and bearing of objects on a radar sim.

The dial-displays driven by the motors/servos never rotate more than 360 deg - so the steppers are beginning to look like "huge noob over-engineering" :(

With the apparent precision of PPM library and a Teensy 3.5 I'm thinking 360 deg movement rc servos would do much better job. AND i just found 4 on Amazon for $20!!

What say ye oh wizened coders? :confused:
=A.
