Re: servo output accuracy

Wow. thanks for the quick reply!
well i guess if it can't be done it can't be done... (although it could be done with a 10 turn pot geared to the servo output shaft so 10 turns=180 deg then have a circuit that puts that onto two inputs to give me 65536 values to work with instead of just 256 but no way in hell i am going to go through all that...)

I just did the math and it looks like at half court and over about 12 feet to one side it would be only about a 3 inch error in either direction without decimals. (and that isn't including the allowable error to prevent oscillation in the default code)
