How do you change the direction of a servo motor?

Servo motor control of the shaft position comes from using a pulse width modulation signal (PWM) to turn the shaft clockwise or counter clockwise, depending on the pulse width of the signal. Typically, a pulse width of 1 ms will rotate the shaft clockwise and a 2 ms pulse will rotate the shaft counter clockwise.

What does a reverse servo do?

A reversed servo sees the same signal as the forward servo, so it responds at exactly the same time as a matched forward servo.

What size servos do I need?

It is important to choose a servo which is strong enough to handle the size and weight of your car. A normal 1/10 buggy or short course/stadium truck ideally needs a torque of around 10kg. A 1/10 on-road car will be alright with a little less, so around 8kg will be enough.

Are all servos the same size?

Servo sizes Most hobby servos will be classified by their size. Different manufacturers might have small variances in how they list their servo sizes but they can usually be boiled down to three types: micro, standard and giant.
