The servo is suited for designing robotic arm in which wear and tear of motor is high.
Being metal geared, the servo has long life and can be installed on system like robotic arm were motor work is huge.
The servo is also suited to be used in drones and toy planes. Having a satisfying torque which is enough to overcome air resistance and control wings of plane, the servo is preferred in toy planes and drones which need precision control no matter the condition.
Now for controlling of servo there are only two important things to remember:
Frequency of PWM: MG995 takes in PWM signal of frequency 50Hz and any higher and lower frequency PWM will lead to error. As shown in figure the every single cycle of PWM needs to be 20ms width for 50Hz frequency.
Duty cycle of PWM:�The duty cycle of PWM (or ratio of ON time to total cycle time) determines the position of servo axis. If we provide a PWM signal of 0.5ms ON time over 20mS complete cycle, the servo axis will move to 0º.
