Common Questions About the P16-R Linear Servo

Is the P16-R plug and play with RC receivers?

Yes and no. The P16-R has the same standard servo plug as a rotary servo. That said, P16-R servos operate at 12V and most RC receivers operate at 4.8V-6V. This means that if you will likely have to use a secondary power source to power the P16-R. This could be a UBEC, power distribution board or separate battery pack depending on your budget and needs.

Do you have 3D files available for the P16-R servo?

Yes, we do. When you visit the P16-R product page, click on the 'Technical Specs' tab and you will find a link to the 3D files for this product.

How do I choose the best linear servo for my application?

The best way to start is by entering the information that you have into our Actuator Selector Tool.
