2. Servo control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

   Servo and receiver connections A diagram showing typical PWM timing for a servomotor. Servo control is a method of controlling many types of RC/hobbyist servos by sending the servo a PWM (pulse-width modulation) signal, a series of repeating pulses of variable width where either the width of the pulse (most common modern hobby servos) or the duty cycle of a pulse train (less common today ...

3. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

   The servo is controlled by three wires: ground, power, and control. The servo will move based on the pulses sent over the control wire, which set the angle of the actuator arm. The servo expects a pulse every 20 ms in order to gain correct information about the angle. The width of the servo pulse dictates the range of the servo's angular motion.

4. Servomechanism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomechanism

   Other examples are fly-by-wire systems in aircraft which use servos to actuate the aircraft's control surfaces, and radio-controlled models which use RC servos for the same purpose. Many autofocus cameras also use a servomechanism to accurately move the lens. A hard disk drive has a magnetic servo system with sub-micrometer positioning accuracy ...

5. Servomotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomotor

   A servomotor (or servo motor or simply servo) [1] is a rotary or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration in a mechanical system. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It constitutes part of a servomechanism , and consists of a suitable motor coupled to a sensor for position feedback and a controller ...

6. Radio-controlled aircraft - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aircraft

   Some radio-controlled helicopters have photo or video cameras installed and are used for aerial imaging or surveillance. Newer "3d" radio-control helicopters can fly inverted with the advent of advanced swash heads, and servo linkage that enables the pilot to immediately reverse the pitch of the blades, creating a reverse in thrust.

7. Radio-controlled model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_model

   1:10 scale radio-controlled car (Saab Sonett II)A radio-controlled model (or RC model) is a model that is steerable with the use of radio control (RC). All types of model vehicles have had RC systems installed in them, including ground vehicles, boats, planes, helicopters and even submarines and scale railway locomotives.

8. Swashplate (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swashplate_(aeronautics)

   The swashplate was first tested in 1907 by brothers Jules and Paul Cornu.They obtained a patent for the device (French Patent No. 398,545, June 7, 1909). [1] Although its principle is also found in earlier patents by other screw inventors.

9. Rotary actuator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_actuator

   Radio control servo Main article: servomotor A servomotor is a packaged of several components: a motor (usually electric, although fluid power motors may also be used), a gear train to reduce the many rotations of the motor to a higher torque rotation, a position encoder that identifies the position of the output shaft and an inbuilt control ...
