Eric, you are right that there should be a separate driver board. I want to make that change too. As adam has demonstrated, there is basically no limit to the power when you have the flexibility of changing the driver board. It really doesn't belong on the control section.

It will also make assembly and disassembly much much much easier too (if you ever wanted to do that). I can't wait for Adam's controller. He thinks big!

Also, those surface mount control boards are tiny! I bet that would be way cheaper in bulk.
