Title: Servo with >180o rotation
Post by: amadcow on February 22, 2009, 12:56:34 PM

I'm not referring to continuous rotation servos, but simply servos with greater than a 180o range.  Do these exist?  I'm having trouble finding any servors at servocity.com that have this capability, so I'm beginning to worry such a servo isn't made.

I don't know of any hobby-priced servos with a rotation of > 180 deg.  So you can use something like this to get 360 deg. of rotation:

Ah, I should have realized I could simply add a gear ratio.  Thank you  ;D
