Re: Regulating power to a servo with a relay

I'm not totally sure on this, but wouldn't that blow out the servo anyway?

The power from the Digital Sidecar would give it the 6 volts needed to power it.

If you connected a spike to it using the 12 volt output on the Power Distribution board, I believe it would blow out your motor.
