    It was a VPI PLC speed controller, and now that I've done some research, I'm glad I won't be stuck with it. Thanks bad packing job/USPS!

    I built one , tested it then put it on the shelf :) = sometimes best laid plans don't align with practical implementation.

    @dBel84 I was also thinking about finding a design online and hiring you to build it. There are very few options for higher power AC synchronous motors and the ones that exist are $$$. My other thought is to buy the "Total Eclipse Package" from Sota, but I'm waiting to see if one comes up on the used market.

    Did Sorta pick up the Phoenix Engineering Falcon PSU and Roadrunner? Used to be about $700 all in for that.

    @Vansen yep, but I think they ditched the Falcon and changed the Eagle to Condor. Now it's way more expensive and you have to buy their motor with it, since I'm guessing it has less power handling capability than the Falcon.
