Servo Test (with end stop current detection) :

 


Finished Project : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbXVjOoNJw4

Materials needed : 
- 5  m3 x 5mm
- Servo FT90R (continuous rotation version of a FT,ST,SG or FG90) 

 

This is for a learning/hobby building project to do precise temperature control in my 3D printed enclosure, while also using the (waste) heat to dry filament storage above.

The setup I'm building uses just cheap continues rotating servo's and does end stop recognition by sensing changing current draw if servo is stalling.
