Take a look at the catalog sheets, I seem to recall there were subtle
differences in the descriptions of G2800xxx as opposed to the smaller
models.
The G2800 has a second or two of delay after your release the left/right
switch (or after the preset reaches its destination)...the rotor slows down
before it stops. As far as I know the other models just stop when the turn
command is ended.
I have used the G800 and G2800 and despite minor component differences, the
controllers & motors are interchangeable within SDX and DXA families. In
fact, if you change connectors or make a connector-converter-pigtail, the
SDX and DXA controllers & motors are interchangeable.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Yaesu G800 rotators
Hi all,
I wonder if someone can answer this question, because the schematic and the
manual don¹t seem clear on the issue: is there a mechanical braking system
of some kind on the G800 or G1000 series of rotators?
If yes, is there a built-in gentle stop system like the brake delay mod for
the Ham-IV?
Thanks
Kelly
