 ;) Good question!
I will be addressing this, and other robot necessaties in my post, Analyzing the Axon: Coding, Construction, and Contraptions.
To make sure your motor works the way you need it to, you need to test it with a
microcontroller. I will probably test my servos and stepper motors with a Basic Stamp from Parallax, and then, test the servo/stepper with the Axon II. This would give me
a "rule of thumb" performance of the motor.
Also, the tutorials in the forum are helpful, for more information.
Good Luck!!   ;D ;D ;D

Hi,
You have to use a micro controller to test your servo, I would recommend an arduino
