Perhaps...but the flow control valves we have had in the past (and the ones this year look the same) have needed to go through like 5-10 rotations (screwed in/out) to go from full open to full close....

Granted you could hack the servo...or gear it up...but you would probably lose the high resolution that I'm guessing the was the draw to using a servo in the first place...

Hope this helps
