360 servo and position control

Hi,
I modified a mini servo to 360 turn rotation and got it working with the servo command in espeasy.

1. Is there a "detach" servo command (present in arduino) for espeasy? This may be useful as this will stop servo buzzing with normal servo, and in the 360 will also stop creeping if we cannot get the stop point precisely.

2.While I can control rotation for either direct and speed of rotation, of course there is no position control as I have glued the servo feedback pot mid point in the modification, so next step is to try to hook up a rotation encoder (as espeasy support it) to control exactly position with the 360 servo, anyone done that?

Thanks,
Ken
