I just wanted to bump this thread. It seems like someone is paying attention. The Chinese have already modified the ramps for due action. I wonder if it will works properly.
Here is a link [www.aliexpress.com]
One thing to note though is that the firmware taking advantage of the DUE power seems to be still in infancy. I wonder if it is worth trying. I have been eyeballing the RADDS sheild and it looks great, kind of like a ramps successor with 3 extruders instead of 2 and 128 microsteps available. Although at this point I would love to see some more powerful stepper drivers on these. I know some exist, but can you trust the traces on these boards to supply 2-3 times the amperage of a normal ramps?
