The RX sends a beginning pulse that the RX recognizes and then a position pulse at a later time. The time between the start pulse and the position pulse is the absolute position that the servo is commanded to move to.</DIV>

<DIV>Its pulse width modulation. The pulse length varies from roughly 1.0 millisecond to 2.0 milliseconds in length, with center at roughly 1.5 msec. For a typical radio, the pulse is repeated about 50 times per second or about once every 20 msec (though this can vary quite a lot).<BR><BR>Ed<BR></DIV>
