Hilleyja and Zope Pope,
One thing to watch for if you get glitching problems is the voltage at the servo. You can NOT do this with a meter or a voltwatch. Now here is the hard part....the only way you will see quick voltage drops is with a scope. A meter or voltwatch will give you an average and it is much too slow to give you good data on glitching. I know everyone doesnt have a scope in the shop but it is very interesting to see what goes on if you can get your hands on one. Another interesting place to put a scope is on some of the low cost switches being sold. You can see a significant voltage drop when all the servos are moved under load but for such a short time that you would never see it with a meter.
