Finally a true review of this product and understanding of what 60kg servo means.

@statorworksrobotics9838 2 года назад

This is a great review, thank you! One thing to note is that the rated torque is at stall, so it might hold but not lift the load at the 60Kg-cm. I like how low the noise is for the force it can provide. Amazing.

@GlevoTec 2 года назад

Thanks. Yes, indeed. The mentioned torque is holding torque. So they passed the test

Nice

@@GlevoTec Hey I got a similiar motor, but i cannot get the bearing out of the plastic wheel. Somehow it is stuck or glued. Do you know, how I could get it out?

@lightingmcqueen522 4 месяца назад

Thank you for the review, I’m also trying to make a robot and I saw a three pack of these for like 15$ and I’m pretty much broke so I had to know if they were what I’m looking for

@kavinduadhikari5881 10 месяцев назад

Your tutorials are great man. I couldn't understand many things about the functionality of circuits even at university. But your tutorials solved them all. Keep making videos about the basic circuit components. I would suggest you to make tutorials about electronics as well. Just like about logic gates and flip flops etc.....Thank you.

Great. Glad that I could help you with my videos. Thanks for the suggestions!

good video

@pablovicentico 2 года назад

Interesting! I didn’t thought they would work but they worked fine!

@stevefox3763 Год назад

they wont for long, they are very poor quality and the gears will strip very quickly

@xortxa 7 месяцев назад

@@stevefox3763 you should note those gears are made out of metal NOT PLASTİC, they will hold on for a pretty long time. (altough most servos including this one will need maintenance per 10 years or so)

@stevefox3763 7 месяцев назад

@@xortxa I know they are metal gear servos, im not stupid, the quality of the gears is very poor and they strip at the slightest bump. I had one and it lasted literally 10 mins before it stripped gears, i also know of others who have had the same experience, on dude simply caught a wheel on the wall as he walked and that killed the gears, they are junk. I stick to servos from manufacturers like JX and SPT, now a little more expensive but 10x the quality and dont die if you look at them the wrong way.

Vielen Dank für das Video !!

@robpracht9303 Год назад

They are good but the problem is the plastic top case..the bearing always gets loose in the casing...so in the end testing a new one for strenght ettc is nice but test it under load for like a full day and than you can really tell if it holds up.

@patriciaalheli3324 11 месяцев назад

Le felicito maestro por tan excelente video, muy informativo, quisiera su asesoria referente a una duda que tengo, que amperaje maneja un servo de 35kg a 6v, y que amperaje manejaria un servomotor de 80kg de la misma marca del servo de 60kg? Espero me pueda orientar 🙏

good

@emreucar1888 8 месяцев назад

This is a great review. Do you know what is the max current that the servo uses?

@GlevoTec 8 месяцев назад

Unfortunately not, my power supply is not powerful enough.

@omkarparab5267 Месяц назад

How much current this servo requires?

sir can you make a drone at home and control it through a android app

@stas_robotmaker Год назад

Hello. Recently bought 2 of these. They support PWM of 0.5-2.5ms pulse duration with a period of 20ms. What will happen with exactly this servo if you send a signal outside of those limits (less than 0.5ms or more than 2.5ms? Will the servo's internal electronics automatically "cut" it to fit the limits, or it will continue turning past its specified angle and break?

@GlevoTec Год назад

I can't tell for sure, but most likely it will just stop at the limits, since the feedback circuit voltage will be outside the expected values. I would say : try it out and let others know 👍

@stas_robotmaker Год назад

@@GlevoTec Thanks! Already tested them with Arduino, works well. However, I want to connect them to another application that supplies PWM with the voltage of a 2S battery (6-8.4V), not 5V. Is it safe to exceed 5V on the PWM wire? Just don't want to burn an expensive servo.

@GlevoTec Год назад

@@stas_robotmaker If you're not sure, why not put a simple voltage divider at the PWM signal wire? Two resistors and you can make sure you won't exceed 5V with a higher signal voltage

I have one electric scooter 🛴 i need attachment servo motor in handle Which servo Motor are used Moive handle Total weight secoter 50kg

@Lot10Games Год назад

I just ordered a 270 degree servo by mistake instead of 180 degrees. Is there any difference between them apart from the fact that they rotate at different degrees? I want to use them in an Arduino project

@GlevoTec Год назад

No. They should be the same, just turn further.

@stevefox3763 Год назад

They are terrible servos, the metal the gears are made from is incredibly soft and will strip if you so much as look at it. I bought two of these to replace a JX HV2060MG which was very sloppy after a long and hard service in a large scale RC truck, both the DS5160 servos i bought stripped their gears on the very first run! when the first stripped its gears after 10 mins you could just put it down to being a bad servo but after putting in the second and it failing in almost the same amount of time it is clear the gears are poor quality. i would also like to add that the servo is very VERY weak in terms of torque, at 8.4v, the same my JX HV2060MG is run at, it struggled to dry steer my truck, something that the JX servo has no problem doing. Yes, the JX servos are significantly more money but the quality is an order of magnitude better, if you need cheaper servos then look at SPT, they are reasonable quality at a decent price.

@GlevoTec Год назад

I disagree on that. In further projects I tested them and none of them failed so far. They have been pushed to their stall torque many times over. I think it simply comes down to from who you buy them. There are always cheap copies of the cheap copies. I bought them all from the same seller and had zero issues. I know people who bought the same ones for their robotic projects and had very good experiences with them, like myself.

@stevefox3763 Год назад

@@GlevoTec Pushing them to the stall torque in a controlled environment is different to them being used in a real world application where they will get shocks put though them such as a steering servo in a 25kg 1/4 scale rc truck. I have had massive rollover events at where i have rolled multiple times at high speed, bouncing off the wheels on each rotation and the JX servo shrugged it off, both of the cheap DS5160 servos failed from just bumps in the ground!! They are poor quality cheap servos and its not just the gears, the lack of torque is because they are a small servo and use a small motor, the footprint of the JX HV2060MG and the DS5160 is the same but the JX servo stands a full CM taller because it has a bigger motor and can actually deliver the claimed torque, something the DS5160 cannot.
