InMoov Bicep Servo Holder for Turnigy™ MG959 Servo
Description
After One Of My Bicep Servos Died I Start To Look Around For A Replacement. I Have Had 10 Of The Original Servos On Back Order For Two Months And Needed Something That Was In Stock. I Went For The Turnigy Mg959 Http://Www.Hobbyking.Co.Uk/Hobbyking/Store/__40285__Turnigy_8482_Mg959_V2_Alloy_Dg_Mg_Servo_30Kg_0_15Sec_78G.Html This All Metal Servo Is A Lovely Thing For The Price. It Is Easy To Take Apart. There Is A Pin In The Main Gear Which You Can Drift Out Carefully To Make It Continuous Rotation (Or Just Cut Off). It Is Easy Enough To Grind A Small Opening In The Side To Allow The Pot Wiring To Extrude. I Cut The Pot Off And Clamped A 3-Way Dupont Connector On The End Of The Cable To Avoid Soldering. You Will Need To Reuse The Pot In The Arm As The Servo Doesn'T Appear To Play Well With The Original. The Servo Holder Is Deeper That Than The Original To Preserve The Geometry Of The Arm. I'Ve Used The Extra Space Beneath The Servo To Run The Cabling, Though The Original Slots Are Still There To Cable It As Before. I'Ve Also Added A Side Opening For Access, Leading To A Solid Base Which Gives A Greater Glueing Surface For Strength. The Tail At The End Is To Make Sure The Servo Housing Stays Inside The Arm And Doesn'T Twist.
