RC Servo Tool resolution

Post by Dirk Bubley »

Hi MM team,

I´m doing my first steps with the Servo tool inside FC4.

The tool an function works very well with 8Bit RC Servo resolution. :)

Now my question. Is is possible to modify the servo toll to accept a INT.
Because i would like to have a better Servo resolution. For example 11 or 12 bit is very common for the high end RC servo products.

Also it would great if it would be possible to modify the Servo pulse duration in a range from 850uSec to 2200uSec.

Please any ideas are welcome.

How many servos are you using ?

If it's just one, you could make your own PWM. Depending on the microcontroller you have, I think you can get a 10 bit PWM or maybe more I don't know for sure.

Hi Nicolas,

yes that is a good idea. But i need more Servos to control.

8 or more.
