Hey everyone! Today i'll be showing you how to modify or "Hotwire" a small Miscro Servo to run on simple DC battery power! No Programming or Coding or Microcontrollers reuqired!
Why do this you ask?
When starting a hobby that uses small servos like robotics or in my case; Cosplay and making Iron Man helmets that open and close with buttons, this step can be very overwhelming.
I know when i started out the prospect of codes and arduinos and microcontrollers scared me!
Having a strong background in DC 12V systems i knew there must be a way.
Sadly most tutorials out there werent that great and were hard to relate to what i needed it for.
So i figured it out and made this tutorial for you all to enjoy! I really hope it helps! It's a great way to start with automation of parts and projects without having to worry about coding.
The Servo can be easily swapped out later if you choose to upgrade and start really getting fancy!

Finally what I was actually looking for. I see so many tutorials that use Arduinos and I just don't have the skills for that yet, since this is the first time I'll ever use servos and I only want to do something pretty simple like what you did. Thank you so much!!

I asked the question about another way to operate the servos I was looking at on amzon without using a transmitter, and all the knuckleheaded answers said there wasn't. Thank You again.

I’ve managed to rig up an accelerometer to my servo. I’ve got it set so that when I nod my head upwards, the accelerometer (once it hits the threshold) will tell the servo to “open” the face plate. Then it does the reverse when I nod my head downwards, closing the faceplate. I just need to 3D model some brackets up for the servo and faceplate to connect them.

Having a servo hit the stops at full speed WILL strip the gears. You can also take the potentiometer out and the stop pin, so you have a gear motor that can turn in either direction without stopping. Check out "continuous rotation servo". More useful than this...
