Modify RC Servos for Continuous Rotation and External H-Bridge Control

In this video I show how to modify RC servos so they can spin continuously. Two ways are presented: the first way allows the servo to still be controlled with a servo signal. The second way allows for controlling the h-bridge externally so you have better control over the motor. I also explain some the theory behind the h-bridge and how to use PWM signals to control it. Lastly, I show how to mount an RC airplane wheel to the servo so it can be used to power small robots.

This video is part of a series showing how to build a balancing robot:
