Servo Question

Post by Daniel Angel » Sat Nov 07, 2015 4:15 pm

Afternoon All

I have a heavy duty servo that lists two voltages - 4.8 volts and 6
volts in its specs with corresponding speeds and torques. Am I correct
that I can safely run this servo anywhere between those ranges if I'm
not using batteries (I'm using a voltage convertor to reduce from 12
volts)?

Just want to be sure. I have a reputation for blowing things up :-)

I'm using a GWS S777FCG 6BB Servo and the specs can be found here:

Thanks for any advice.

Good evening!
Sorry for not replying earlier but my 2.5 year old girl wanted to see Frozen (again) J
I looked at the specs and based on my experience with specifications this is indicating the values at those two voltages. Now if you run in between them that should be fine. I did look more on the page but did not see further pecs such as maximum voltage so I would assume it is 6VDC and the minimum would be 4.8VDC.
You might want to check with them to know the maximum voltage, current, and perhaps operating temperature range.
Hope this helps! If I am wrong I am certain that someone will correct me J By the way I am curios to know what you plan on using this servo for J
Enjoy the weekend!

Thanks Gregorio
I thought I was reading it correctly. I did forget to mention this is used to life my bubble so the weight is significant. I may install a spring to ease some of that.
Much appreciated.

Just want to be sure. I have a reputation for blowing things up :-)

I'm using a GWS S777FCG 6BB Servo and the specs can be found here:

Thanks for any advice.
