Re: Servo Problem
Hi,

Are you placing a jumper on the headers adjacent to the PWM port the servo is connected to? This is required to enable 6V output to power the servo.

Once you place a jumper on one of these ports, it is not recommended to connect it to a speed controller.

For more information see section 3.4 of the control system manual.
