For some reason my servos keep burning out.
My code is simple, if condition, rotate to 0 degrees, else rotate to 180.
However, what that does to the motor is keep it in a constant struggle to stay in rotation 0 or 180, when there is no movement in between. Sure enough, leave it running for 1 hour, the motor burns out.
if (!strcmp("1",output)){
myservo.write(0);
}
else {
myservo.write(180);
}
Is there something like myservo.release or something? I presuming i need to get the servo in to position, then release it so it doesnt try to stay in position.
Please help, i've burned through 4-5 of them so far, it's not fun :(
