maybe i shouldnt mention this here but there is a lowish cost controller available with full rtcp.
i watched all its development. a very talented programmer. (nearly as good as cncdrive)
good luck with hardware backup though.

Which is exactly what my original post is asking for…..a suitable post processor

Post processors is unique for each diy 5 axis cnc, you need to create or modify according you machine kinematic, if you want to have rtcp

Yes, thats the problem, that you have to define the machine kinematics anyways.
In the CAM software or in the UCCNC.
This is why it is hard to implement this, because for a CNC controller like UCCNC it has to be done generalized, otherwise it would only work with some machines and our experience is that if something is not done generalized then there will be always users who need that function differently, because their machine is built up differently from the exact implementation.
So, this is the reason why we did not start implenent this function yet.
But I'm pretty sure that big CAM software vendors like Autodesk sure has this already impemented in a general way, maybe you can ask them?
