## 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.
