I am attempting to drive a 5 phase / 10 wire motor. Specifically a Berger Lahr VRDM 5913/50 LNC 5 Phase motor. I was thinking of trying to drive this with 5 a4988 and I'm pretty sure I even have some sample code that I think will work but I'm jsut not really sure. Maybe a ramps board with the a4s on board the mega?
I would appreciate any thoughts on this as I hesitate to spend $700 on a driver for a motor I am not 100% certain of.
Thanks!
EDIT: The application is to drive a belt for steering on a lawn motor so it won't be spinning freely it will always be within about 10-12 turns from the point of origin.
EDIT 2: Not a riding lawnmower, this one will be driving itself.
