Hi,

Thank you for the tutorials, they have helped me a lot!
But I would love to see the next parts for the DC motor as soon as possible, I can’t wait… :p
I’m just a student who needs to design a product, but I encounter lots of problems that none of my teachers can help me with. Is there a possibility to contact you to help me solve some issues?

holiday greetings
