Reply to comment by nixiebunny in Proper use of ball bearing for a vertical rotation (azimuth rotation for a ground station) by Fun-Palpitation81
Thank you, for my elevation stepper, I am using two rolling bearings, directly driven by a stepper - I'm using direct drive to save on space, but if I haven't tested that I'll have enough torque.
For the azimuth drive, I will try using these slew bearings, with the benefit that I can feed my elevation stepper motor wires through the center.
