As far as I can tell everything is plugged in correctly, and I'm using PWM.setRaw() and scrolling from 0-255 in increments of 5 with a delay of about half a second.

So, help?

I am assuming the servo is not connected to anything (mechanically) and therefore not stalling.
Have you tried not setting the period and using set rather than set raw?

I have two servos running using the 'set', so there isn't anything broken there (library-wise) that I have seen, but I am not at the robot and can't look at the raw commands until later. If I haven't seen a resolution by then I'll try them this afternoon.
