Does anyone know of a sensor that determines position, feeds back a signal
to both allow position and preselection of motion? I am trying to fabricate
a flap handle that when put in a position (say 30 deg flaps) actuates the
motor; the sensor senses when the motor (flap) is there and then shuts off.
It is ready to reactivate to next position at any time.
Seems to me cowl flap linear actuators (old sat antenna position motors)
might do that? But I already have a flap motor and a way to sense flap
position (at the motor). I just need to feed position back and control it at
the flap handle.
