While working on the next pcb version one task was to improve the support for analog sine/cosine encoders.

With sincos encoders we have the option to use high resolution absolute encoders and in the next version hopefully even with differential inputs for less noise.

For testing i made a few AS5115 based magnetic encoders and mounted a magnet to the shaft of a drone motor as a test setup.
That gave me the idea to make a tiny ffb wheel :)

Could you show how you attached the magnet to the motor shaft?

  Are you sure? yes | no
