Hi Dan,
I make an open source controller for precision (encoder feedback) control of ~1000W hobby brushless motors. The aim is to make industrial power/precision robotics available to the maker. You can check it here: https://odriverobotics.com.
One of the projects I’ve been wanting to do with it is exactly a 4-point parallel cable robot, which is the same kinematics as your skycam. The thing is, I don’t really have the time right now to build this myself, but I’d love to see one come into existence.
If you are interested in collaborating to make a prototype using ODrive (instead of slow steppers), I’d be happy to send you some gear.
If so, feel free to follow up by email: [email protected]
Cheers,
Oskar
