“I want to thank ServoCity for building and selling the right equipment to get the job done, your gear box sail winch has amazing brut strength and your company has given me outstanding customer service to help me succeed in only my second year of sailboat racing.” - Rich S.
John from ecoCAD Design Group sent in these photos of their Dual Axis Sun Tracker that uses ServoCity’s new ServoBlocks and JS200 joystick controller. The tracker has two operating modes. In auto mode, the LEDs can make the servos track the sun, or even a flashlight. In joystick mode the solar panels follow the pan-tilt joystick commands of a moving light source. The solar panels power the circuit board and provide power for tracking.
