Title: Message
     I emailed Oatley a while back  and this was there responce, I also asked if they sold this as a completed unit and they said it was not.
Hope this helps.
 
 
 
 
 
 
How does it hook up and does it truly make this large motor work like a servo ie: porportional movements, returns to center when the stick on transmitter does and so forth.  
Yes, it takes the 1-2mS pulses from your receiver and turns them into proportional movements just like a GWS, HiTec or Futaba etc. type servo would do.
 
You will need to connect (mechanicaly) a feedback potemtiometer to the output shaft of the motor, two wires to power, two wires to your motor and three wires to your receiver.
 
 
Also is there an amperage max I should be concerned with for the motor? 
That kit uses power transistors that are rated at around 10A but at that rate would require heatsinking.
 
 
If you have any further questions......
