    Smile zylotex vs stepperworld fet3

    Does anyone have any experience with the zylotex 3 axis board, or the fet3 stepperworld board? What motor and PS setup are you using and what feed rates and torque are you getting??? I'm working on my first home built cnc....Thanks in advance for the benefit of your experience.

    I have had both boards. The Fet3 is slow and requires ballest resistors. The Zylotex is fast and chopping. With equal voltage and steppers I would expect to see a near 2x performance improvement with the zylotex over the Fet3.
