is it possible to 3d print my own gear or gearbox? to increase the torque of my hobby 9.5kgcm servo. let's say with a ratio of 4:1, will 3d printed gears be strong enough to carry an arm of 60cm and 500grams?
Yes it’s possible. How well it works and how robust it is depends on the design and material used. Feel free to contact us with additional questions tech@servocity.com.
Hi Marcelo, there are many things to consider when selecting the perfect servo. Send us an email at tech@servocity.com and we will find the gearbox for your application. We offer several sub models for the channel mount gearboxes. Prices ranging from $59.99-$299.98.
Since the Y axis of the left joystick (commonly known as the throttle stick) does not have return springs it will stay in position when released. Servos and Servo Gearboxes that have positioning feedback will stay in place when the stick is left idle in any one position. Servos and Gearboxes that do not have feedback (aka continuous rotation) will rotate at a set speed until the joystick is moved to a new location. Feel free to email us at tech@servocity.com if you have any additional questions.
ServoCity hi servocity... thank explain about return spring on the R/C system throttle with 4 channels on the left side... rather better put a return spring throttle on the left side with 4 channels or more channels than without... any R/C systems must comes with 3 parts in the box as 1- spring / 1- spring holder hook / 1- screw in a small bag... anyway thank servocity
