[amsat-bb] controller for g5500 rotor

[John]

Agreed, the through-hole kits are a doddle to build, the prebuilt smd kits
are equally good, and in fact Peter is using my first ERC-M!

It was so good I bought another... And that's 3 I've put in production in
different places now. The support on their Yahoo! Group is fantastic too.

ERC-M is my choice at the moment, seems to outperform the FoxDelta ST2 and
the configuration options are way nicer!
