Best breakout board for G203V's?

I noticed the morph function... How does that work? Does it start with micro stepping and then switch over to full steps?

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for that...

Both KelingInc and Homeshopcnc.com are out of stock on the steppers I am interested in.

So I will have to wait a while.

Homeshopcnc has a 570 nema 23 stepper that looks the part to me. I was thinking that I would rather go big and make sure I over power rather than under power with the conversion rather than under power with a 282oz steppers from KelingInc or a 370oz steppers from Homeshopcnc.

I might be wrong... :P

Those 570s will run best (Bipolar Parallel) with 5Amp and 48 volts each. To run 3, you will need a 48 V 10 A power supply. To run 4, you will need 48V and 14 A.

This is a quote from my earlier message, but the link is supposed to be fixed now.

Yaw! Yes! They are the best of both worlds and do EXACTLY that. So you can set very high resolution, but still have full-speed rapids.
