If you guys have something you want me to explain in a video like this, lemme know! :) Otherwise, I'll just be using servos and stuff to make high voltage experiments more fun.

There is so much stuff I didn't know I

This is amazing! straight to the point and informative af thanks for this!

[bryce]

This video is so helpful. I’m planning on taking apart an rc car for a servo and jerry rigging it to my light switch so I can remotely turn my lights on and off. I hope it works.

I would love to see a video where you have a 4 channel rf keyfob that can control two mini servo motors say 3 to 5 volts maybe? Thanks

[Pau_Pau]

Thanks bro!
This was a mystery to me until you showed me how!
Thank you!

Hi. Thanks for great explanation. What's the approximate range for this thing? I need about 800 feet. Could this go that far?

[bradhinton]

This is exactly the video I needed. Thanks!

Tommy Callaway thanks for the video How to: remote control servos I have a question if you don't mind me asking what device do I need to recharge the Spektrum 900mAh 2S 6.6V Li-Fe Receiver Battery what device do I need at a good price thank you.

Thanks for the video. How would you go about buying just the radio receivers? Are there any places I can look?

[seychelles]

Can you modify a servo to work with a remote control for car alarm style with 2 buttons?

[anzaeria]

Great tutorial. When plugging the servo into the receiver, should you always have the yellow cable on the left (as shown in the video)?

[kshitijnishant]

My servo doesn't go back to the 0 position like your's did in the video....any tip on how can I fix that?
I have TowerPro 9G servo (the common blue one)

[pauliebots]

I would like to set up a remote control to slide up a bird cage door...where should I start? Door is simple up and down to open and close.

[EUUUGHH]

I’m a little late to this video but oh well. Are you able to have about 5 servos and an esc with a 6 ch remote and receiver and be able to have each button control a different servo

[alejandromfontanez]

This was super helpful thank you so much 😊

[smartletix]

Can servos speeds also be controlled by an electric speed controller?

[JordysWheels]

Hi, do you have any recommendations on where I would be able to find a small single channel remote to operate a servo? I'm looking for a remote that would be around the same size as just the thumb throttle from a remote control car remote! Thanks, Jordan

[reludorofte]

Can you use any transmitor from any rc car?
