Overview
KST A12-S is a servo motor (HV digital metal servo) designed for fast, precise actuation in robotics mechanisms and RC control surfaces. It uses a 7-phase coreless DC motor, hardened steel gears, and a contactless magnetic position sensor in an aluminum alloy case.
Key Features
- 7-phase coreless DC motor
- Hardened steel gear set
- Contactless (magnetic) position sensor
