I'll have to do quite a bit of research into motors though. But I wouldn't mind adding/contributing to the code to extend functionality later on when I understand the hardware and software better.

Thanks for that, that makes things much clearer. I'll have to see what level of modification I wish to perform. At the moment I'm considering doing away with the serial DB9/15 connector altogether and going the USB approach:

But it's a little more costly, so I might just end up sticking with the standard DB9 + max232 + 1uF cap approach.
Anyway thanks so much for your advice, I really appreciate it! I don't feel so bad anymore for missing out on a cheap EQ6 Pro, as I get to tinker and learn the hardware better this way
