I'm thinking about using an Radio Control servo to operate my heat box control instead of cable, which would be more difficult to route and connect. Has anybody done this before?
My current thinking would use a spring as a 'fail safe' device to close the door in the event of an engine compartment fire, etc. which may melt the servo.
I've gone as far as buying a servo and setting up a test module. It works quite well set up as with a one inch arm, providing a two inch throw.
Any thoughts?
