hobbycnc-ez-1.jpgWe’re proud to introduce the HobbyCNC EZ Driver Board Kit and Packages to our line of products. Aimed toward the hobbyist that’s looking for something a little more simple, the 3-axis unipolar chopper control kit is:

  • EZ to assemble as part count is very low. Lessens chance of assembly errors.
  • 36VDC maximum input gives a very wide margin to help prevent damage with voltage surges.
  • Same great performance as our PRO series except without idle current reduction.
  • Smaller footprint for EZ installations.
  • Inexpensive. Kits start at just $64 and packages with stepper motors start at just $235.

Go over and purchase one today! We’re shipping them NOW!
