Re: how do you code a servo to run continuously

There are 2 types of servo's,
Standard ones, and Continuous rotation servos.

Standard servos can only do ~180 degrees of motion.(some have more range some have less)
so each PWM value corresponds to a position of the servo horn.

Continuous rotation servos, as the name implies, can rotate continuously. Each PWM servo corresponds to a rotation speed.

There is no way of making a regular servo rotate continuously.
