Re: 4W Maximum Power Servos? Huh?

I agree a servo != a motor.

I guess what matters is what the rule makers want the rule to mean..

It seems to me that most of the rules limit what motors are allowed, in this case the same internal motor would be used just with a different output mechanism.

The motor controller is still built into it like a servo.

I have modified servos to turn continuously in the past, depending on the internal gearing this is fairly easy, or impossible if the teeth on the main output gear are not complete.
