I'm sure people will tell me why this is a silly or impractical idea, but i'm curious.
My car window has a single switch to control it, that seems (to me) to have five positions. If I pull or push it lightly, I get control over where I want the window, and I can raise or lower it a little bit when I want to. If I pull or push to the limit, it goes into "auto up" or "auto down" mode, and it drives the window to it's limit before stopping.
Is something like that possible on the flap mechanism? I think you'd need a 5 position switch... on-(on)-off-(on)-on. Are those even made? I suspect in the car that it's done with a microcontroller, and a simple (on)-off-(on) switch, as even though I pull the switch all the way to the stop, when I release it the switch comes back to center but the window keeps moving.
Anyone have ideas how to implement that?
