The stepper-motors can be driven directly by an Arduino powering the coils properly. The Arduino output is low-power so the motor needs to be driven in "high-torque" mode, ie. 2 coils at a time. That is to say, instead of having the magnetic field going N > E > S > W, it goes NE > SE > SW > NW.

To lower the electrical stress on the Arduino, it would be '''great''' to drive the motors with H-Bridges (or maybe T-bridge like in the original design).

Manual driving

Principle

The stepper-motors can be driven directly by an Arduino powering the coils properly. The Arduino output is low-power so the motor needs to be driven in "high-torque" mode, ie. 2 coils at a time. That is to say, instead of having the magnetic field going N > E > S > W, it goes NE > SE > SW > NW.

To lower the electrical stress on the Arduino, it would be great to drive the motors with H-Bridges (or maybe T-bridge like in the original design).

Show me the code
