Tower Pro MG996R Digital Plastic Gear High Torque Servo Motor
The Tower Pro MG996R Digital Plastic Gear High Torque Servo Motor (180 Degree Rotation) has plastic gears that give it a very high 10kg stalling torque in a small size. It is an improved version of the popular MG995 servo, with better shock resistance and a new PCB and IC control system that make it more precise. The gear and motor have also been improved to reduce dead band width and improve centering. The servo comes with a 30cm wire and a 3 pin ‘S’ type female header connector that is compatible with most receivers, such as Futaba, JR, GWS, Cirrus, Blue Bird, Blue Arrow, Corona, Berg, Spektrum and Hitec.
Wire Configuration of Tower Pro MG996R Digital Plastic Gear High Torque Servo Motor (180 Degree Rotation): –
