Rx Firmware Update: Servo slow movement to neutral

Hi,

if you power on the Rx all servos will snap into neutral position.
How about a firmware update wo drive the servos with slow speed into neutral? Something like 0.3sec slowness for the first travel into servo neutral position.

Bye Manuel

Some servos implement this, and until all servos report their position to the receiver I think is hard to implement in the receiver?!

Hallo,

this depends of the electronic in the servos; some servos like high End JR or new Hacker Ditex servos can do this. This servos have this electronic in the servos.

How should the RX know what to put out in the beginning? The Servos could be in any position.

Power On -> Rx goes online and wait until a valid Tx signal - during that time all servos stay powerless
After Rx knows the neutral position of each server it begin with a slow travel to this position.

The Rx does not have the start position of the servo it's enough if it does a slow travel to 1,5ms (middle) or (better) to the neutral position definied by the Tx.


In my opinion this can be done with current servos.

How should the RX do the slow travel, it can only output a position (defined by pwm). When the actual position of the servo isn't known, it couldn't be done slow. When the servo gets it's demanded position it runs full speed to this position. Exept servos, which can be set to a lower speed, but theese run with lower speed anyways then.

But the main problem is, that the servos, for which this slow travel would be usefull normally are the same servos, which don't support speed settings or returning their position.

best regards
