This high-powered micro servo packs nearly double the stall torque of standard micro servos into a compact metal-geared package. With approximately 180° of rotation, it works with any standard servo library, driver, or controller — including the Arduino Servo library, motor shields, and 16-channel servo drivers.
Metal gears provide durability under load, making this servo a strong choice for robotics, RC models, and projects where a standard-size servo won't fit but full-size torque is needed. Comes with mounting horns and hardware.
Key Features
- High Torque Metal Gears – Nearly double the stall torque of standard micro servos
- ~180° Rotation – Approximately 90° in each direction
- Compact Size – Fits in tight spaces where standard servos won't
- Standard 3-Pin Connector – Compatible with any servo library or driver
- Includes Horns and Hardware – Multiple horn options for different applications
Ideal For
- Robotics and animatronics
- RC vehicles and aircraft
- Pan-tilt camera mounts
- Arduino and microcontroller projects
- Any application requiring high torque in a small package
Package Contents
- 1× High-Powered Metal Gear Micro Servo
- Assorted servo horns and mounting hardware

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
- Pulse width range
- The span of control pulse lengths a servo understands, usually measured in microseconds. Matching this range in your code affects how far the servo moves and helps avoid commanding positions outside its intended travel.
- servo
- A servo is a motor with built-in position control, usually told to move to a specific angle by a control signal. It matters when you need repeatable movement, such as steering, arms, flaps, or linkages, rather than continuous spinning.
- Stall torque
- The maximum twisting force a servo can produce when its output is held still and cannot move. It helps you judge whether the servo is strong enough for a robot joint, steering linkage, or other load.
- Torque
- A twisting force that causes something to rotate, usually measured in newton-metres or kilogram-centimetres. It matters when choosing motors, servos, gears, and tools because higher torque is needed to lift heavier loads, turn larger wheels, or move mechanisms without stalling.
