Depending on where you source your parts will effect price. RAMPS is widely used as cheapest, but also has the most posts here for help. Either because the instructions weren't clear enough for setup, or the firmware needs calibration.

Yep that may be a concern, but they are actually quite hard to burn out. The only thing that will surely kill them is to disconnect the motors while powered. They have both short circuit protection and overtemp protection, so you can abuse them quite a bit without any real worries.Quote

anwe79...my only concern is if you burnout a stepper driver you have to replace the whole board.

My 2 cents:
Also, the Arduino platform it's running on is just about maxed out, there is little headroom for more advanced future features.

Smoothie is a 32 bit app but in reality we are probably a year or so out from seeing anything other than some performance enhancements from a 32 bit platform. Smoothie supply can be constrained, it's not priced at a cost driven price point and the dev community is no where near as large as some of the other more established platforms.

I do agree, lacking the second power rail on the X5 is a bummer, and something I hadn't noticed before (I'll have to deal with that). If it works as well as I think (and all signs point to that), I would put it as the best deal out there, at least for delta owners.

How would you guys compare the Azteeg to the Minitronics? Mini is cheaper, but has more outputs, so I'm obviously missing something as to why Azteeg is more popular.
