Hitec Joystick and D-845WP SERVO

[font=Helvetica]Hi Newbie here
Will the Hitec 2 axis Joystick GIM-01 operate the D-845WP 32 bit servo
I will also need to program the servo to 20 deg. + and minus and also reduce the servo speed - for control of a hydraulic pump / will the DPC-11 do this

  • can this programmer operate out in the field to change settings on my robot?

Thanks[/font]

Hi simplemind,

This joystick is nothing more than two potentiometer and it will not be able to control a R/C servo directly.
You would have to acquire the analog signal with a microcontroller and produce a PWM signal to control the servo.

It’s possible to program this servo with either the HFP-30 or the DPC-11.
