MG995 High Torque Digital Servo Motor | Metal Gear

Product Overview

The MG995 Servo from Pro Tronix is a powerhouse in the world of hobbyist and semi-professional robotics. Unlike standard plastic-gear servos, the MG995 is equipped with a complete metal gear assembly, ensuring it can handle significant mechanical stress without stripping teeth.

As a digital servo, it offers faster response times, tighter holding torque, and better accuracy compared to its analog counterparts. It is a standard “large scale” servo, meaning it fits perfectly into RC planes, cars, and heavy-duty robotic joints. Whether you are building a hexapod walker or a high-speed steering linkage, the MG995 provides the torque and reliability you need.

Technical Specifications

Key Features

• Full Metal Gears: Exceptional durability for high-impact and high-stress applications.

• Double Ball Bearing Design: Reduces friction and increases the lifespan of the motor shaft.

• Digital Controller: Provides superior holding power and more precise positioning compared to analog servos.

• Universal Connector: Compatible with most standard receivers and microcontrollers (Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi).

Common Applications

• Robotic Arms: Ideal for base rotation or shoulder joints that require lifting heavy loads.

• RC Vehicles: Perfect for 1/8 and 1/10 scale car steering or large aircraft control surfaces.

• Automated Locks: Providing the necessary torque to actuate mechanical deadbolts or heavy latches.

• Camera Gimbals: Stabilizing large DSLR cameras on custom-built tracking rigs.

💡 Power Tip: Because the MG995 is a high-torque motor, it can draw over 1A under load. It is highly recommended to use an external power source (like a 6V battery pack or buck converter) rather than powering it directly from an Arduino’s 5V pin.
