Merge with Servomechanism — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.239.214 ( talk) 16:35, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
Obviously this article could use some attention. Servo motors are a major technology topic and I'd think this page gets a lot of hits.
The article lacks clear expertise on the topic, a reasonable explanation of what a servo motor really is and, not least of all, sources. Someone needs to get busy. Although I have built controllers for servo motors, I don't consider myself to have any sort of authority on the topic. I came here to find information and I was dismayed that such an important page should have so little. Should I end up learning something that I can confidently contribute, I'll return and attempt a rewrite.
I'm not at all sure that the sample Arduino code is appropriate. I didn't look at the copyright. Voronwae ( talk) 05:25, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Servo motor → Servomotor – Common form of the name for this specific device Andy Dingley ( talk) 16:06, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
The article says, "A servomotor consumes power as it rotates to the commanded position but then the servomotor rests."
That's not true. The power consumption of a servomotor varies with torque, not speed. If the motor must produce torque in order to hold a fixed position (i.e., because some external force is trying to push the load out of position) then it will consume power even though the load is not moving. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.42.208.182 ( talk) 19:26, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
hello, the link to source 10 is broken, actually all of that website. Fakeoren levi ( talk) 15:21, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
