Having built many projects incorporating servos, DJ has encountered a constant dialing problem during installation. While every project is unique, what if there was a simple standalone device capable of powering and controlling multiple servos at once while allowing custom ranges of motion? That very device will come to life in today's episode as DJ tackles his servo conundrum once and for all

    Nice build. Have you considered using the TI C2000 processor for you servo tester. It has a full 16 bit PWM. DAB

    Don't print flat stuff! Lesson learned. I have never used a 3D printer but I will write it down in case some day I have the opportunity.
