Hi Tony,
Good to see another Barteliser on iceinspace! I have relatively fast slews (for a stepper system). Flywheels help a lot - mine are just old bearings fitted to the worm. I also had the overvoltage circuit installed and now run at about 20 volts. I am driving 5.4 volt steppers. Slew speed is about 3.5 degrees per second. I can go a little quicker (4 degrees per second) if everything is really well balanced.
I also found the laptop makes a bit of difference. Some laptops allow more speed than others. The one I use at the moment runs smoother, quieter microsteps when tracking but slews a little slower than others I have used.
Hope to hear more about your project,
Rod.
