L12-R Linear Servo Actuators
L12-R Series Linear Servos
The L12-R series of linear servos operate as a direct replacement for standard rotary servos. They use the same standard 3 wire connector with ground, 5V-6V power, and RC control signal. Regardless of how you drive your servos, be it with an RC receiver, an Arduino board, or a VEX micro-controller, the L12-R servo will function in place of a regular rotary servo, but gives you the added benefit of linear motion.
Our L12 line are constructed using an anodized aluminum shaft, metal gearbox, brass screw and steel ball bearings. These quality linear servos are not only built to last, but will look great on your models. Depending on the stroke length that you choose, the L12-R has a mass of between 34g-56g. It's small size and light weight make the L12-R ideal for airborne RC models, as well as robotics and RC projects.
L12-R Series Linear Servos
- 30mm, 50mm and 100mm stroke lengths available
- 3 gearing options for maximum speeds between 6.5mm/s and 25mm/s and maximum forces between 22N (5lbs) and 80N (18lbs)
- 6V input only to ensure compatibility with RC receivers
L12-R - Upgrade Your Project with Powerful Linear Servos
As with our other R-Series servos, the L12-R is a plug and play replacement for a standard rotary servo. This makes integration into your projects a breeze whether you're controlling them with an RC Receiver, Arduino or another control system.

Frequently Asked Questions About L12-R Servos
We've compiled a list of frequently asked questions to help you better understand L12-R and how they can benefit your projects.
Can I power an L12-R directly from an Arduino board?
We don't recommend this. Always check the specs of your board against the datasheet of the actuator you're considering but as a general rule, a separate power source is a good idea.
Can I paint an L12-R black?
We understand that some RC enthusiasts prefer an all-black look. You can paint your actuator to suit your needs. Just be aware that you can only paint the outside of the device, and not the inner shaft.
Do you sponsor projects?
Yes we do. At our discretion, we may choose to sponsor unique builds with Actuonix parts. If you have something in mind, feel free to reach out and we can talk it over.
