Re: [FTC]: Do Servo's reset during start up?

Under RobotC, servos will not move after a power up. For us, we can easily move the servos while the robot is waiting for the auto-op to start. If you assign a value (0~255) in your program, servos would try to move that that location. From this point, a servo would always move to the location where the firmware told it to move to in the last loop.

In the newest RobotC templates, you can initialize servo values after a power up in your code. It does not have to be the center values.
