360 servo is NOT a servo. it is product modified for fun to make it work that way. use stepper motor for real application. this will never work as expected. do not waste your time.

[davidaustin]

Great info, thanks! One thing becomes quite obvious here: for slow full-rotation motion it seems that cheap little stepper motors are superior to cheap little servos. I did not know that before. Thanks! Now am off to learn how to control a bipolar stepper with arduino.

I use SG90 servo. My servo doesnt move continously. It only move slightly then stop.Each time i put a character it always say " 10 moving Random". After that it won't move even i put a another character.
How to fix that problem?

[flatisland]

nice video. I have gotten one of those today. Mine stops between 86 and 96. I think you could make it move in smaller steps by using it like that: for example to make it move slowly for 100ms. Mine moves fastest at about 47. By lowering the value further more it stays the same speed. I had originally thought it would work like the SG90 servo (thanks to your video I now know it was not a malfunction). So unfortunately I have no application for it ... yet :D

Hi robojax . i was on my project. I was gonna use this servo to make automatc curtain . but when i used this on if else . the logic if else . repeated continuesly . like . when i was gonna rotate for 2 second . it really rotate 2 second and stop . but it rotate again . did you have any solution? I use raindrop sensor to get data and control if else condition .

Thank you. I was thinking thay they stop on 360/0 degrees, and when I started to spin it with my hands without connection and power, I figured out that they spin continuously, unlike 180 or 90 degree versions.
But why it is bad idea to use it as step motor?

Hi, great video
For what purpose do we use 360 servo? Can these be used in place of normal servo (i.e. those rotating 180 deg)? If yes, how?

[robojax]

Please subscribe 🛎 and thumb up 👍. Thanks. I appreciate it.

[seungkihong]

what kind of servo motor are you using? I am using MG996R model. I followed your steps exactly but i couldn't rotate the motor to other way. and It keeps telling me that incomingByte is 10. any suggestions?

[unglaubichuberlieber]

well, done, bravo, brao bravo...just DON'T STOP NOW !!!

[maciejkozyra]

Hello. Is it possible to software transform 360 degree continous servo to non-continous? I need full circle moovement but not more than one, controlling by two buttons. Thanks in advance.

[rad]

I've MG996R and work perfect with pca9685 and Arduino nano 3 .
i didn't use any different configuration but my code is:"" pwm.setPWM(pinnumber, 0, rotation); delay(500); pwm.setPWM(pinnumber, 0, 0); ""
rotation for right turn between 99-365 high speed 99 low speed 365
rotation for left turn between 385-640 high speed 640 low speed 385
then delay time depend how many time want to spin and finally stop code;
don't forget to set frequency its work at 60 but not in other frequency i'm not quite sure why.
pwm.setPWMFreq(60);
good luck;

Could be possible using this system for control 6 DC motors with

[alanvillela]

i need to build a crane, i want to use this servo for the up down motion, and the rotation of the crane, should i use this or a stepper motor for the up down part

[DOTD]

hi there, can you use these servos to a certain angle like 540 degrees?

[ServitorSkull]

Nice video, as always. Thanks for your outstanding work creating great libraries and sharing code.

[jyotilahre]

sir can we use it for 45 degree rotation and after some time reposition it

[dustinplee]

I bought one of the the black ones for my Traxxas rustler and my Traxxas slash I don’t have them yet

[chasinelwood]

Hey there. How do you get that command line manager window to open up? The window where you are changing the speed values? Please advise! Nixe video!

[fero___]

Bro if we upload code can will it save that i mean wheni give power will rotoate 360° ? for my another Arduino project
