Default RE: Radio controlled servo?


ORIGINAL: IYIaster

I'll worry about the battery later I might have to come up with a way for the receiver to turn on every hour or so just to see if there is an update and the shut back off. Eight servos will be fine for now will I need an XBee receiver on all servos and then one for each I want to control on the main board or will I be able to just have one transmitter hooked to the main board and then one hooked to each servo?
All the servos will run off the controller and one XBee to send the controller signals. All the servos can be located near the controller, correct?

Think of it this way. The XBee sends commands to the controller. The controller sends the commands to move the servos.
