    Also, another caveat is the opencockpits servo card is only 8bit Need to find a 10bit or preferably 12bit servo control. They have them for R/C stuff, just not us.

    I suppose it depends on the degree of accuracy you are expecting on your gauge movement. 8 bits is fine for the gauges on my overhead.
