## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=POLOLU-3427:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/POLOLU-3427:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

The FT5121M is a standard-size digital servo from FEETECH that can deliver over three times the torque of Pololu's standard-size servos with plastic gears thanks to its powerful coreless motor and all-metal gear train (if you need even more torque than this, check out the larger [FT5335M giant servo](https://core-electronics.com.au/feetech-ultra-high-torque-high-voltage-digital-giant-servo-ft5335m.html), which can deliver 550 oz-in at 7.4 V, and if you need more speed in a servo with the same dimensions as the FT5121M, consider the [FT5313M](https://core-electronics.com.au/feetech-high-torque-digital-servo-ft5313m.html)). The output shaft is supported by two ball bearings for reduced friction.

The FT5121M works with standard RC servo pulses, providing a running angle of approximately 120° over a servo pulse range of 900 µs to 2100 µs. Many hobby servos can be operated beyond their standard ranges by using a wider pulse range, but please note that in Pololu's tests, Pololu were not able to expand the range of the FT5121M significantly beyond 120° (the servo did not respond to pulses below around 800 µs or above around 2100 µs, providing an approximate expanded range of 135°).

This servo has a 10" (25 cm) cable that is terminated with a standard [JR-style connector](https://core-electronics.com.au/jr-connector-pack-female.html), which is Futaba-compatible. Unlike typical hobby servos, the FT5121M has an operating voltage of 6 V to 7.4 V. You can find more information about this servo in its datasheet (123k pdf).

|---|

Note that, as with most hobby servos, stalling or back-driving this servo can damage it. This servo can draw bursts of current in excess of 5 A at 7.4 V, so please make sure you have an appropriate power supply. For comparison, a typical standard-size servo might draw around an amp when straining.
