Questions

How big is the Controller PCB?

It measures 100 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Controller use?

62 parts, built around the ATMEGA328P-AU, BD9D321EFJ-E2, LTV-847 and FM24C04B-G. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Controller KiCad files?

From the jft-t/Rotator-Controller repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is kicad/controller.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Controller design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
