I've got a question - looking for someone who knows at least slightly more about servos than I do!
Application:
12V DC (my bike) (probably would need resistors or something to bring it down to 6v I'd assum)
I want a servo (or rotary solenoid/actuator) to run off of a 2 way switch that will flip a small plate (roughly license plate sized) between 2 positions of 0* and 60*, staying at either extreme. I would like it to center at 0*, and when I flip the switch (lightswitch style) have it rotate the plate to 60* and stay until I flip the switch back to the first position.
Most servos I know of will go ~45* in either direction from center, but return to center. If I got a servo that went 60* degrees in each direct I assume that would work.
The next challenge is wiring it without needing the signal pulse of an RC Receiver, I assume it's simple, I just haven't come across a way to do that.
Any help is appreciated!
