modifying a servo to be a larger jack screw
hey guys i had an electrical question and don't have enough experience with electronics to design this.
what i want to do is use the circuitry out of a servo (hs-50 feather) and use the output voltage normally sent to the motor to drive a transistor to allow it to control a larger motor to use as a jack screw for larger motion on the plane.
how would i build the circuit to take the ~3.2 volts it sends to its baby motor to drive a transistor?
is this making any sense?
anyway that is what i want to do and i just thought i would run it past you guys before trying it on myown
thanks
