 hello magnus,

to control a  servo u need to be  throuh with its working and schematics.

ill explain something i knew……..

0,start

1, control pin of servo needs 1-2ms pulse every 20ms to rotate .

2,1ms pulse will turn counter clockwise extreme position(0deg)

3,2ms pulse will turn clockwise extreme position(60-180 deg)

4,1.5ms pulse will set to center position and 20ms pulse will stop servo .

5, all u haveto do is to write a program to generate pulse of width from 1-2ms every 20ms.

6, u can also find standalone 555based controllers if u want.

7, all the above discussed are applicable for futaba s3003 and equivalents..

8,mail me if u need some more help,

9,bon programminge

10,end
