    I am thinking of getting the Blackbox controller and run Openbuilds control software for my Longmill MK2. Any issues with doing this on the Longmill? I really can't think it would be an issue but would like to get some opinions. Thanks.

    If its similar to our type of machines, you should be able to. Work your way through http://docs.openbuilds.com/blackbox-x32 to see what it needs. Check what else may need replacement (we recommend our PSU, our Xtensions Limits at the very least, and compare motor's electrical specs against ours)

    As per your other support email, we do note you lost 2x controllers before - so do make sure to replace the PSU and any other suspect components along with the controller to avoid the same faulty components perhaps damaging your BlackBox as well
