He seems to have a well designed product line in a range of capacities, reasonably priced two. My 600 oz in. oz. servo controller and drives should come in at about 1300 dollars.
Customers are giving him good reviews on the quality of his product. My experience is, he gives good feedback and tehnical advice as well. Stepper world has good selection of hardware as well.
