-Spindle control and speed is managed comfortably with a [[http://autoquad.org/wiki/wiki/esc32/|ESC32]] brushless engine speed controller originally intended to control our drone motors. Due to the open firmware nature of this module and the possibility to control the ESC through serial/CAN interface another module was purchased (additionally to the ones purchased for our Drone project) to be tested for the spindle setup.+Spindle control and speed is managed comfortably with a [[http://autoquad.org/wiki/wiki/esc32/|ESC32]] or [[mission:log:2016:04:30:vesc-open-source-bldc-esc]] brushless engine speed controller originally intended to control our drone motors.
