The Emax ES08MA II is a robust, cost-effective analog micro servo that trades absolute precision for durability. Its metal gear train makes it superior to plastic-gear competitors in high-shock environments like RC planes without landing gear or combat robots. For applications requiring digital precision or higher voltage (7.4V), users should consider the Emax ES08MD II (digital version) or a coreless servo. However, within its 4.8–6.0V analog domain, the ES08MA II offers excellent value and reliability. The performance of the ES08MA II scales based

. While the servo might briefly operate at a higher voltage, it will significantly reduce the lifespan of the electronics. | Feature | | TowerPro SG90 | Hitec
Do not run multiple ES08MA II servos directly from an Arduino 5V pin, as this can brown out the microcontroller. Use an external BEC or UBEC capable of providing at least per servo during high load. Voltage Limitation: Do not exceed 6.0V6.0 cap V
