The vfd is a stiff enough control, so unlike 2 of my other machines treating the dc spindle motors as velocity servo's, I won't need the PID with the vfd doing the work. At least thats what it says here according to my testing it on the worktable.
Running the 2.8-pre tree on a raspberry pi feeding a 7i90HD, I would hope that it gets migrated to the pi's (running a rt kernel on a basically armbian jessie build) 2.8-pre fairly quickly. I fact, none of my 3.5 machines is running a 2.7 and hasn't been in close to a year. Stay warm everybody, the weather folks are making threatening noises about the next week or so in my neck of the woods.
