Continuous Rotation Micro Servo - FS90R Need to make a tiny robot? This little micro servo rotates 360 degrees fully forward or backwards, instead of moving to a single position. You can use any servo code, hardware or library to control these servos. Good for making simple moving robots. Comes with five horns and attachment screws, as shown. Good for beginners who want to make stuff move without building a motor controller with feedback & gear box, especially since it will fit in small places. Of course, its not nearly as strong as a standard servo. Works great with the Motor Shield for Arduino, our 16-channel Servo Driver, or by just wiring up with the Servo library. To control with an Arduino, we suggest connecting the orange control wire to pin 9 or 10 and using the Servo library included with the Arduino IDE (see here for an example sketch). Position "90" (1.5ms pulse) is stop, "180" (2ms pulse) is full speed forward, "0" (1ms pulse) is full speed backwards. They may require some simple calibration, simply tell the servo to 'stop' and then gently adjust the potentiometer in the recessed hole with a small screwdriver until the servo stops moving. | 8/8 | |||
Power HD Sub-Micro Servo HD-1440A The HD-1440A analog servo from Power HD is one of the smallest servos we carry and is a great, inexpensive, tiny actuator for a small robot mechanism. Servo horns and associated hardware are included.Key specs at 6 V: 0.10 sec/60°, 11 oz-in (0.8 kg-cm), 4.4 g. An example of hardware included with the Power HD sub-micro servo HD-1440A and the sub-micro servo 3.7g (generic). Actual hardware might vary. This is a great general-purpose actuator for tiny mechanisms. The lead is terminated with a standard “JR”-style connector, which is Futaba-compatible. Mounting screws and an assortment of servo horns is included with this servo (hardware might vary). You can find more information about this servo under the specifications tab and in its datasheet (379k pdf). Note that, as with most hobby servos, stalling or back-driving this servo can strip its gears. Note: The case of this servo has changed from translucent blue to solid black (pictures of the two versions are available under the pictures tab).

Sub-micro Servo - SG51R This is just about the cutest, tiniest little micro servo we could find, even smaller than the 9 gram micro servos we love so much. It can rotate approximately 180 degrees (90 in each direction) and works just like the standard kind you're used to but much smaller. You can use any servo code, hardware or library to control these servos. Good for beginners who want to make stuff move without building a motor controller with feedback & gear box, especially since it will fit in small places. Of course, its not nearly as strong as a standard servo. Works great with the Motor Shield for Arduino or by just wiring up with the Servo library. Comes with a few horns and hardware. To control with an Arduino, we suggest connecting the orange control wire to pin 9 or 10 and using the Servo library included with the Arduino IDE (see here for an example sketch). Position "0" (1.5ms pulse) is middle, "90" (~2ms pulse) is all the way to the right, "-90" (~1ms pulse) is all the way to the left. | 1/1 |
