[DevanV]

Dude literally does a public service. You deserve an award. Thank you for explaining things to some of us that love to continually learn

[taurruth]

You need to make second part titled "how it works and how to control it".
Love your channel.

[TreyDeuce]

Fantastic pirmer! A sci-fi fan, I've heard about servos for decades. This a a great quick explanation of what they are! Brilliant.

At 2:05 shouldn't the weight be 8.33kg at 3cm (or the distance be 4 cm for 6.25kg)?

[Chris-zxez]

You have no idea how much your channel helps with my apprenticeship.

@The Engineering Mindset It's always good to see another informative video from your channel, keep up the great work....however I need to correct an aspect you mentioned which is false, The markings on hobby servos don't arbitrarily indicate torque capabilities as stated, for example those small blue servos commonly known as SG90s do in fact weigh approximately 9g and are commonly described that way for use in light RC aircraft, their torque rating is around 1.6kg/cm and have a voltage range of 4.8V to 6.0V.

Thanks 👍
Hope for the controller circuit too.

[chefsslaad]

2:05 I thought that with torq you double the length and half the torq. The last image shows the weight at the 4th hole (4cm), but is labeled 3 cm. The weight is half the 2cm value, so I think the lable is incorrect.

Just wanted to point this out. Great video as always.

[TheMuffinMan]

Just a heads up, larger motors show the torque rating on the servo, but micro servos it is actually the weight. Micro servis can typically deliver 1-2 kg-cm of torque. Also, at 3 cm, a 25 kg motor can support 8.33 kg, not 6 kg. You just divide the torque by distance in cm from the center of mass.

Your videos is very knowledgeable . Please keep continue 🙏

[Dipplers]

You should make a video on industrial servo motors instead of rc servo motors. They’re basically the same but they have a lot of technical differences.

[tiagdvideo]

I just went to find a good video on Servos for my STEM club kids tonight....and this appeared before my eyes!
Perfect.
Thanks

[AnasAl-Dhafiri]

Many thanks for your useful information and videos

[leisuremechanist]

I like your channel and you have done a great job. However, this servo motor video is a bit misleading because it mainly deals with servo motors intended for consumer and toy use. Devices and machines such as industrial robots use completely different types of servomotors. They have an absolute encoder directly on the axis of the ac servo motor and the transmission uses planetary gears or even better gear solutions. The servo controller is also a separate device with very versatile features.

A 9gram servo does in fact refer to its weight and in turn its size. They are much more capable than a measly 9grams of force. Do you think you stalled your servo by holding it with 9grams of force?

[deekondasaikumarsaikumar]

How to work memory cards and how to work wireless RF remote control circuit and how to work CNC mishation plz make a videos plZ...

[snowpaw]

Also apparently servo motors are very efficient, hence why the wood lathe by Harvey can get away with a 1HP servo motor.

[dan-nutu]

2:03 did you mean at 4 cm rather then 3?

[LordAnubis]

You get more from his 5min video then from 1 weak off school class
