servos

[webby]

i want to build a ant weight robot and i want to keep it cheap so i was thinking 2 modded 360 servos for drive a receiver and a battrey any help?

[harry hills]

yes that would work but dont expect it to win any thing i did that at the start but i have now moved on to bigger and better things.
cheapest servos(good speed bad torque) easy to speed hack

do i have to use servos or can i plug a motor in the recever?

[harry hills]

a motor needs a speed controler which plugs into the reiver, its is much more expensive but nearly all ants use it. speed contollers are about £45
