Need some help/advice

I am working on a project where digitally programmable servos are needed. See this thread for more info! ---> Calling all "SERVO GURUS"

I cannot view the video link.

Try this for the video link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0aGmb7_7Ok Worked for me. BTW- The servos he used were Hitec digitally programmable servos. I just dont know which ones.

There is too much compression on the video and I cannot see the servos clear enough to see what was being used. From the little bit I could see it looked like the servo had a aluminum center case which then could be a HS-5955TG servo.

O.K so I assume those are preety heavy duty and high torque servos? Also, what would I need to use for that "controll box" for them?

Yeah te 5955TG is a tough servo. As far as how he has it setup to control, I have no idea.

It didn't make sense how he was controlling it with the clutch lever. The buttons on the lever are just sending a pulse like our radios do but I am unsure how he was controlling it with both movements with just the lever.

The way he was controlling it with just the lever was that he was "touch sensors" on the lever. Depending on where they feel your hand, it tells the servos to shift up or down and the pulling in of the lever triggers the servos to move. What could have been in that "controll box" by the handlebars?

Something that sends this type of pulse to the servo. clicky
