Yoga, I know lots of guys that do not have a programmer and use them right out of the box.
They are just like any other servo at that point.
Someone else can reply on the benefits of the deadband etc.

My question to all the tinkerers out there.
How many of you have rotated the gears to get a little more mileage out of them?

What would happen if I ground off the little "ninny" on the output gear and rotated that too?
