servo driven turnout

Time to work on motorizing some of the turnouts on my railroad.

There's probably a hundred ways to do this, but I decided to use those inexpensive servo motors that you can find from the usual suspects in China.

I'm driving the servo motor from an equally inexpensive (and equally Chinese) Arduino Nano clone.

As with all of my videos, this isn't the only way to do it.
It's probably not the best way to do it.

But it's how I do it.
