The HS-785HB winch servo with it's large drum wheel has 8 revolutions of travel. With its dual ball bearing supported output shaft the HS-785HB will provide years of reliable service when used in RC applications.

RC servos are hobbyist remote control servos typically used in radio-controlled models, where they provide actuation for various mechanical systems such as the steering of a car, the flaps on a plane, or the rudder of a boat. These servos are not industrial grade and are not recommended for continuous heavy use.

Continuous Rotation Mode

When testing the winch servo we found out that the motor will go into continuous rotation mode when provided with a target position outside its documented range. Target Positions between 2670 and 2730µs will produce clockwise rotation in increasing velocity and positions between 550 to 350µs will product counter-clockwise rotation in increasing velocity.

Set Phidget_ServoType to PHIDGET_SERVO_RAW_us_MODE to be able to command the Target Position in µs instead of degrees.

Connection

This servo can be controlled by an RC servo controller. You can find a list of suitable controllers on the Connection & Compatibility tab.

FUNCTIONAL

This servo motor needs to be connected to a servo controller board. If you're looking for higher torque, you should select a servo controller with an external power jack so it doesn't have to rely solely on USB power, which is limited. You can plug this servo directly to any of the boards in the list below by matching the color of the wire with the label on the board. Note that some servos have a white data wire and others have a yellow one- in both cases this wire corresponds to the "W" pin on the servo controllers.
