Nope.
I'm 99% sure they all had DC motors. I think the new ones (which I have on
of) a higher torque rating. I use 100 feet of 2 conductor #18 zip cord for
the motor on mine. For the control I use 2 conductor #28 telephone wire. I
love the rotor and have had no issues with it. I use the RS-232 control
with my Writelog logging software.
