dlaing, you are really smart! Every stinking time you open your fingers (mouth), something really awesome comes out! I think you are right! I love this sort of stuff! I want to do that! Once we have a bunch of datapoints, we can search for some sort of function. I'm sure it would vary from motor to motor, but that's OK!

I'm working out the details right now... Let's see. Crap! My laptop doesn't have a battery!

But I could set a software timer for maybe 30 seconds or so. that would give me time to get to a given speed. then, BAM CUT PWM. I like it!
