Re: [FTC]: Servo has parkinsons???

Two possible issues here...
1. The servo is not firmly mounted in place. As the servo moves in it's mount, it may over shoot it's target.
2. If the servo wiring is running close to motor wiring, the noise generated in the motors may be picked up by the servo wiring and interpreted as a command. Try pulling the motor wires and then operate the servo to check if it jitters.
