I can't believe such important point is missed there, those servos (SG90s) are rated at 4.8V-6.0V absolute ratings. 9V is way pushing it. This might (probably will) fry the motors!
Would be true if only a constant voltage DC power source was used but in this case, there’s only a simple 9V battery. Mind the voltage drops after running 4 of the servos. So it’s totally fine.
Im confused too because I read the same data on these servos. THinking these would be fried. Could I also have a theory that since there are 4 servos that sharing 9 volts would give each servo about 2 and 1/4 volts. Damn this connudrum.
delay(100) roughly delay(25000) is 20 seconds, just working on this now. I read wrong you want different speeds. Delay is before next step. Try; void loop() { myservo1.write(pos); delay(2500); // delay before activate servo 25000 is about 20 sec for (pos = 0; pos
Thank you so much. I have 3 important questions 1) Is this connection series or parallel? 2) If i have 5 servo motors (MG996R) and I want to use (Battery) what is the value of voltage and current that i need to apply so it works very well and there will be no damage ? 3) Do i have to care more about the current or voltage, so they can run ?
If you put the motors in a parallel circuit then they will all recieve the same voltage which is a good thing! You want the voltage to be fixed at the voltage required by the servo (the allowable range will be quoted by the servo supplier. probably somewhere between 3.7 and 5v) You then want a battery that supplies enough mAH to keep your servos running for as long as you require.
good tutorial, thanks !!! one question, if these servos were attached via a shield like l298n/vnh2sp30 what needs to be changed ??? thanks for you attention
How can you make them run all at the same time, but each one at a different frequency and a different duty cycle? For example, the first one would do 0 to 45deg back and forth while the second one is doing 0 to 90deg and the third one 0 to 180deg back and forth.
@@sadhankumar7908 if you write delay(300); or any other number after a line of code it will delay before the next line.... So for example with LEDs ( i dont know servo code by heart) it would be digitalWrite(LED1 HIGH); delay(300); digitalWrite(LED1 LOW); this puts a delay in between the commands. I hope this helps
Great video! Please excuse my ignorance of the subject, but how does the 1 signal wire enable the servo motor to travel in both a clockwise and anticlockwise direction? I always thought reversing the direction of the motor required switching the polarity of the positive and negative terminals -- though this is for general motors, rather than servos.... gaps in my knowledge, ah! Any advice is very much appreciated, thank you :)
Great work. that is useful for my project. But as I know SG 9g servos just use 4.8v~5v for the power supply. In your video the servos use 9v power . Is that ok? Sorry for my english.
Thank you for answer me. a few day ago I tried to put 7.4v (2s lipos) for 8 servos. And my problem was gone. before that my spider robo when it use 5v DC port from arduino , it couldn't walk just like it was very easy to collapse, i think because the port of arduino doesn't give enough current for 8 servos. Am i right? Or there are something else?
Oh you just give something very value. Thank you a lot. But why we need to disconnect the servo motor when we connecting the arduino to computer. Can you tell me clear ?
The 9volt battery has powered the servo and with the uno if u connect the cable with it to a computer it will just come on u do not need a battery source for the uno
You need to run a wire from the Positive Rail to the VCC input on the Arduino. The Negative Rail should also be connected to the GND Pin of the Arduino.
I really enjoyed this video alot it was simple and I'm super glad you commented oh what the program does I'm a novice when it comes to this so it was great and easy to follow thanks alot
I am also trying something new.. So please answer that how many servo motrs can be controlled using different digital io pins at a single arduino board...
How would you add a button to this set up and how would you write the code for it? Thanks!did this set up, my only problem I ran into was my power supply wasn’t strong enough, so I’ll get one or two servos working, just waiting on a new power supply thanks for any info!
No, you should not power this servo using 9 volts. You should reduce the power going to the servos to below 6V using a buck converter or some other type of power regulator.
Good video, but what gets me is this: On your code delay of 100ms seems to be controlling servo's angular offset speed (time interval between each angular step?). So therefor 15ms between each angular offset step results with faster operation of the servo. When I'm using the same code, delay acts on a time interval between each full 180 degree sweep. So with a 100 ms my servos are shaking (as they cannot reach full 180 travel in that time) and I need something like 2000 for them to perform full sweep. I have used a breadboard first, than an expansion shield with Tower pro Sg90 servos, both operate more or less the same. Do you have any idea why is it acting different?
hi, i'm new with arduino, i have a question: can i also attach the 9v battery directly to the arduino board and not to the breadboard or i need to attach one battery to the arduino board and one to the breadboard? and also, i can rotate it only at 180° or it can rotate at 360°?
Let say I want command 4 servo at the same time and same position like in the video, can't I connect it parallel in one pwm pin? Im looking for an answer for this.

May I ask stupid question: so there’s a voltage supply both from computer and from the 9V battery ? Or is it so that he uploaded the code, and after that disconnected the arduino Uni from the computer, and only battery used as the source of energy?
im facing problem with 2 pen tilt servo... using valu flysky th9x reciver with arduino ... 1 servo is working but when i use two serov ..thats the problem start...can u plz helm me
If you wanted to start the servos off at different positions could you just do int servo1Pos= 0; int servo2Pos= 90; int servo3Pos = 120; or would you have to do something else? also is there a way to make it so it would stop once it gets to a certain degree then press a button to return to the starting position? what we would i need?
The servos and the Arduino board have different power requirements, different voltages. Your same singular power source would have to cater to each components required voltage
Hello, yes, I was looking for that too. But I have a problem. Since 2 of my servos are mounted in a twisted position, servo 1 and servo 3 should always run backwards. That is, in the first pass of the movement. So servo 1 and servo 3 from 0 to 180 degrees and at the same time servo 2 and servo 4 from 180 to 0 degrees.Can this also be realised in the Sketch?
No it's not it will destroy them pretty quickly. These cheap 5gr servo's every seems to like can only handle 6.8Volts at the highest. I tested 8 of them running on 1 9v battery and 3 of them stopped working after 15 minutes of use (Not doing to stressfull jobs) I woul recommend not using any more then 5volts max as any higher will likely destroy them after a while.
Great video I will be trying to make a project with arduino .. Will try using more then one servo... and diffrent angel!... Do you have some video about it!? I will use 2 servo trying to do some cool with it
Hi! Nice video :) I bought two Lipo to power 8 continous rotation servo 9G. Is it possible to power all the servo directly on the cells or do i need a power regulator? Thanks you in advance :)
Thank you for your answer. I didnt find any power regulator which can deliver enough power to power the 8 servo. Is It possible with the same battery to use several power regulator in derivation ?
Hello, I'd like to be able to make servo 1 move 180degrees then after 5 seconds make servo 1 move 180 degrees. And so on for all 4 servos. I've tried to do this using the delay but all the servos are moving at the same time. Can you help? Thank you
I tried 2 servos with laptop output on Arduino Uno and they worked fine with the 5v pin and Gnd pin. I connected both the Servos to the breadboard and connected the 5v and gnd pins to the breadboard. But they didnt work with Arduino Pro Mini. Only One Worked. The other one is Struggling but couldn't even move a centimeter
When I connect one servo, it works but when I connect more than one, every servo starts rotating without paying attention to the for loop. Looks like I checked everything. I even took another UNO, nothing has changed. Why is that?
Thank you Mert, I was able to realize I had a few fried microservos in the bunch.

Are you able to make each servo move independently of each other with this method? Or will they always be in sync
could you tell me how i could make these run on different speeds (delays)
@Jörgen #2 where?
Change the delay of the code in different servos
delay(100) roughly delay(25000) is 20 seconds, just working on this now.

Is this servo motors doesn not work in 5-7V, i can use it with 9V batarry ?

No, you should not power this servo using 9 volts. You should reduce the power going to the servos to below 6V using a buck converter or some other type of power regulator.
Running 6v servos on 9volt battery is pretty destructive
Can i use a 6 v battery instead ? Will it work fine or not ?
