nice tutorial man, thank you. I'm a newbie on this stuff so much so I find myself just staring at all the motors and gizmos I want to play with but I don't yet know how. I liked ur matter-of-fact demeanor, it def helped boost up my confidence a bit again. now I can set up some flying ghost Halloween decorations -I hope ;)) thanks again
hey Chris. great video. im planning on following your tutorial to make a rotating dome for a cosplay chest piece. what are the cables you use to attach the servo to the tester?
@@MrLimitless95 I'm really sorry that this went unanswered 3 years ago. The answer is YES. After 3 hours or testing I realized that. He doesn't make a big deal of the position of the potentiometer at all so I didn't even notice that I have it set on indefinite clockwise... :-/ But there were tons of other vids that explained it. Hope you found the answer!
What makes it a servo? Internal gear train and feedback position system. Basically these parts are still intact, as such, as Chris has rightly called it, it remains a servo.
Great Video! You saved me from buying a stepper motor for my Robot Arm base. Thanks!
thanks Im going to make a recovery vehicle for rc race boats and im going to use these modified servos for a winch.
That's a great use!

great help thanks , i'm making a rc fpv fishing boat and hoping this can work for the reel and 360 fpv cam :)
Hey so I cut off all 3 wires on my potentiometer connection and lost neutral position. Will that affect anything in the end?
My servo is only turning clockwise and is not turning counter-clockwise. Please help.
Could it also be because i didn't have the potentiometer in the neutral position before cutting?

@@guydineen3905 Why are you sorry?
@@spinphoto I just assumed since it was three years ago that my response probably isn’t helpful now 😊
Stop calling that a servo! It's just a dc motor with gears! You don't have servo control any more!
