Monk Makes Servo Kit for Raspberry Pi

Learn how to control servos with the Raspberry Pi using the Monk Makes Servo Kit. This easy-to-use kit includes the ServoSix interface board, two servos, jumper wires, a battery box, and a Raspberry Leaf GPIO template to help you find the right pins.

The ServoSix board allows control of up to six servos with a Raspberry Pi. It features terminal block style power input, 18 pin headers for servos, and 6 pin headers to connect to the Pi. It has a power indicator LED, and built-in reverse polarity and over-current protection to safeguard the Pi's GPIO pins.

The downloadable guide provides a complete introduction from setup to programming for controlling the servos. This kit can also be used with Arduino, with coding instructions included.
