Description
The Simple Servo Tester is a must have tool for anyone into RC modeling.
It will control up to two digital or analog servos without using a transmitter or receiver. All you need is a battery pack. Use it to check your servos before installing them into your models. Use it to center your servos when setting up linkages. It can operate a servo throughout a wider range than most RC systems. Approximately 0.800 milliseconds to 2.200 milliseconds pulse widths. It can be tuned to precisely center your servos. Some manufactures consider 1.520 milliseconds to be “center” others, 1.500 milliseconds. Use it anytime you want to operate a servo but don’t want to get out your RC equipment. Make It!
All that is needed to assemble this kit is a soldering iron, solder and clippers (dikes). It can be assembled in as little as ten to fifteen minutes but you should set aside at least 30 minutes to work on it.
Operation of the Simple Servo Tester will require a battery pack and a servo. Possibly Related Projects
