Default RE: When do you use a retract servo?



"Retract" servos are designed for mechanical retracts, have 180 degrees of throw, and actually shut themselves off at either end of the servo movement so there is not a constant drain on the battery.

If you are using a pneumatic retract system most all mini servos will provide the torque needed to operate the valve.
