💡 MG90S vs SG90
Unlike the SG90 (plastic gears), the MG90S uses metal gears, making it more durable and capable of handling heavier loads without premature wear.
⚠️ Important Notes
-
Use a stable external power supply when driving multiple servos.
-
Do not power directly from a microcontroller 5V pin.
-
Avoid mechanical overloading to prevent motor damage.
