Hi Jon, Sorry if I mislead anyone. Build the M5 into the gear change unless you want to change gears on the fly. OUCH! Syntax for a gear change should be able to accommodate either an explicit gear or a gear table. My thinking leans toward a gear table that takes into account the torque curve of the spindle drive.
