I just bought a micro servo for fun, maybe to turn a drivers head?, or to open the sunroof on the beetle, problem is that the maximum voltage the servo can take is 4.8volts, it got a bit hot after a couple of seconds plugged into the receiver when it must have been getting 6v, oops.
The servo still works but I need a way to step down the voltage?, can I just use a couple of AA batteries?, and if so do I take the + and - wires to the batteries and leave the other wire in the receiver?, would this even work?.
