Tower pro sg509/14/2023 Are we talking the same thing - servo.Attach() and servo. I thought the parameter value for servo.attach() was the arduino pin number? I've never sent it a value below 2 or above 19. If you use the optional min and max arguments with 10 values, this odd behavior is prevented. I never understood why the default range for servo.Attach() has such a huge range. These servos don't have a mechanical stop but have an internal potentiometer. I have used the standard servo library for some time now so I've not noticed this as a symptom of sending a delayed pulse, but I have noticed this in a batch I received that were marked "continuous" occasionally on startup or in the event of a glitch whilst running. If you give a servo signal within the expected range of about 1000ms to 2000ms, they work perfectly.īut if you give them an unexpectedly low (or high?) signal, something like 700ms, they spin continuously. These motors are compatible with a large range of shields like the common Arduino Motor shield. If the ordered position happens to match the position being reported by the potentiometer (about midpoint) the motor stops. This is the Tower Pro SG51R Micro Servo and armature kit. When the 'servo' is ordered to go to a position that is counter-clockwise from the midpoint, it turns the motor counter-clockwise, forever, trying to get the feedback potentiometer to say that the desired position has been reached (which it never will). When the 'servo' is ordered to go to a position that is clockwise from the midpoint, it turns the motor clockwise, forever, trying to get the feedback potentiometer to say that the desired position has been reached (which it never will).

Introduction: Hack a TowerPro Micro Servo to Spin 360 / Continuous Rotation. This good quality servo motor is in very close competition to the original TowerPro SG90 1.2kgCm 180-degree servo motor. Weight: 9 g Dimension: 22.2 x 11.8 x 31 mm approx. Description: Tower Pro SG90 Micro Analog Servo. This is done by opening the servo, removing the physical stops, and taking out the shaft that drives the feedback potentiometer. We have imported this copy of original TowerPro SG90 9g Mini Servo from our trusted supplier. Your ideal light weight Park Flyer Micro Servo, Low Cost, Well made alternative to the higher priced units. ![]() It seems likely that the first one was modified for continuous rotation. They are both Tower Pro SG90 micro servo 99's. I just tested another servo (that is the same kind) but it is working like a regular servo instead of a continuous rotation servo.
