Virtually every young boy in American society has owned an RC toy at one time or another, but few of us understand what makes them work. One of the main components of RC vehicles is the servo. Simply put, RC servos are the control system for the vehicle.
There are servos employed in a variety of different devices, including disk drives. Once you set the servo, it automatically adjusts itself during operation through feedback. The RC servo contains: a DC electric motor, gears, a position-sensing mechanism, and control circuitry.
