Customer Questions & Answers

What power supply requirements does the MG996R have, and is there a risk of damaging the servo if the recommended voltage is exceeded?

The MG996R operates between 4.8 and 7.2 V; it is recommended not to exceed this range, as a higher voltage may overheat or damage the internal circuit. Maximum current can reach 2.5 A under peak load. It is crucial to use a regulated power supply with sufficient capacity to avoid affecting service life.

What are the exact dimensions and weight of the servo and its accessories for mounting planning in robotics projects?

The main body measures 40 mm x 19 mm x 43 mm. The servo weighs 55 g without accessories, and 66 g including the accessories. These dimensions make it suitable for medium-sized robots or scale models.

What torque and speed limits does this servo have under nominal conditions, and how do they vary depending on the applied voltage?

At 4.8 V, the servo delivers up to 9 kg-cm of holding torque and a speed of 0.17 s/60°. At 6.0 V, maximum torque rises to 12 kg-cm, and speed improves to 0.13 s/60°. It is not recommended to operate continuously near the limits to avoid overheating or premature wear.

What maintenance does the MG996R require, and are standard spare parts available for gears or internal components?

Maintenance is minimal: it is recommended to clean the exterior regularly to prevent particle build-up and, optionally, check gear play if noise or looseness is detected. Original spare parts are not readily available, although there are compatible generic kits, but they do not always guarantee the same tolerances.

What is the operating voltage of the Micro Servo Tower Pro Mg996r?

The servo operates within a voltage range of 4.8 to 7.2 volts.

What type of gears does this servo use?

It uses internal metal gears that provide greater durability and resistance.

Is it compatible with Arduino?

Yes, it is compatible with most Arduino platforms that support standard servos.

What is the servo's operating speed?

The speed is 0.17 seconds per 60 degrees at 4.8V no load and 0.13 seconds per 60 degrees at 6.0V no load.

What is included in the package?

It includes 1 Micro Servo Tower Pro Mg996r with a 300 mm connector.
