Quick question
When a retract servo reaches the ends of its travel unhindered is it drawing a lot of milliamps?

Ditto, at each end of it's travel, it should draw a milliamp or so, for the amp circuit. The motor should be OFF

Has this been been fixed yet? ... have a look in your own personal settings & you should see something about "receive subscriptions"
If that doesn't work, PM Myself or Mikey admin please.

I just own the forum .... you guys make it great thanks.

Seamus, I'm almost 100 percent sure that feature is installed. I will take a look later.

I may have missed something, but,
When I initially asked this question I forgot to click the reply box, and embarrassingly never got to thank the guy until a couple of days later.
When I posted the Thanks guys I ticked the box and got your email alerts this evening.
