Hi Peter, I have released BETA version 2.0.0d which provides multiple options for controlling servo speed. R/ Nathan
Hi Taylor, Overall, yes, the idea is "relatively easy" to add to the project. I’ve considered adding a flexible heating element, similar to the one you referenced, and it’s something I was planning to investigate in the future. I’ve been focused on software updates and finalizing a couple of PCB designs for the current iteration, so I haven’t had the chance to test the warmth of EL panels to determine if it'll offer any benefit. Over the last five years, I haven’t seen a need for it, but it may depend...
I'm excited to announce the release of version 2.0.0d, now available in the 2.0.0 BETA RELEASE folder. This update introduces multiple options for controlling the speed and style of servo movement. In addition to the existing linear movement option, which moves the servo in even increments based on the timeToMoveCover variable, you can now select from several new easing functions: Circular, Cubic, Expo, Quadratic, Quartic, Quint, and Sine. These easing functions offer smoother motion by gradually...
A huge shoutout and thank you to Nial, who has graciously been testing software updates. I have released the 2.0.0 beta version of the DLC in the 2.0.0 BETA RELEASE folder. The latest version includes many improvements to code efficiency and error handling, as well as support for either a solitary Cover or Light Panel, and more. Additionally, support continues for ASCOM, and now also includes INDI. If you are currently using the DLC and want to try the latest version, you will need to uninstall any...

A huge thank you to Nial, who has graciously been testing software updates and has also contributed to the project. His files have been added to the STL 3D Parts section in a new folder called 'RC12' for anyone looking to build a cover for their setup.
Hello Piotr, The current version doesn't contain the ability to control the speed. There is a library called VarSpeedServo that you can use, unfortunately though, it's no longer maintained. I hope to put the final touches on an updated version of the DLC soon that will provide different speed control options. R/ Nathan
