Should design a compensator circuit gives max torque at the start, and as the amps start to drop off mid lift, it brings the voltage up to increase the screw rpm making it look more consistent . I'm sure someone on here should be able come up with a circuit. If not, I'll put some thought into it when I get into my dump build.

Now that would be sweet, if that's something you can do, just being you thought of it I'm guessing you can, than by all means!

That's what I'm planning on trying on mine, a scissor lift. Seem you get the best lift for the shortest stroke. I couldn't find it on Carson's site, have a link?
