3dpilot Posted January 29, 2013 Posted January 29, 2013 Hi Guys, Has anybody one tried Mike Powell's DTS. It is really interesting and an intelligent way. All commercial ones use a scott-t transformer to convert from resolver( sin and cos) signals to synchro signals. He does it in another clever way. 3dpilot
