Arduino Prototyping Outputs #86: Continuous Rotation Servos

Servos are great, but they have their limitations. In this video, I will show you how to modify a hobby servo to make an affordable and powerful geared motor that has integrated speed control.

Thank you so much for giving me the guide for servo motor ...

Great video. Is it possible to make the servo make exactly 5 turns?

Thanks for showing how to convert a servo. I am new to Arduino and want to make a rotating positioning table that needs to be accurate. I am wondering if the continuously rotating servo can be stopped at a position by using infrared switches as position sensors and if they would be accurate? I want to keep this simple as possible. Any insight would be appreciated.

My continous rotation servos are too slow even at max speed (180 degrees). Is there a way to make it spin 10 times faster than it is now?

How does one put two continuous rotation servos onto there, but where they rotate in different direction respectively?

But…. Can you write Arduino code to control the continuous servo????
