Does anyone know where I can get a servo that has linear movement instead of the regular circular cw or ccw??
thanks, jim

for an RC application or robotic? How big? How much torque?

Tower carries a conversion kit that lets you convert a standard servo to linear

Thank You, Mike East & Mike B as well as Ken. You have provided to solution to my question.
Again Thank, Jim

Looks to me like the one MinnFlyer suggested is an assembled version of the unit RCKen listed including a servo. Basically means that you are paying someone $21 to do the assemby for you. Of course if that worries you it can be a good investment.

I've got the pieces at home to try as a throttle servo in a future plane to see how I like it.

You are quite welcome!! That was so easy I dont even know what I did!
