More generally, curious about what your plans are for a 400Hz power supply. There are so many interesting avionics, aerospace, etc. equipment which would be interesting to experiment with. Short of spinning a generator, have you found a VFD or something else OTS that can supply suitable power? Tnx!

CuriousMarc got a VFD box that he thinks will power this, as well as some gyroscopes. I don't know the particular model.
