Default Using a Servo modified as a motor for elevation with Clarke board?

I have a HL KT that I modified by (many many things) pulling out the elevation motor and using a servo. I want to try a Clarke TK board, but I need to use the servo elevation system as there is no way of putting back the HL elevation motor.
Has anyone tried to modify a servo to make it a continuous motor and used that system? Since the Clarke board has the elevation motor that can change rotation direction (I'm hoping from reading the material), why not use a servo motor?
Any thoughts ?
Thanks tjs
