Rotating a servo with my hand, while it is powred.

MarkT:
Different servos have different responses to a lack of control pulses.

That might be the answer that I'm looking for...

MarkT:
What are you actually wanting to do? A servo might be the wrong answer.

Well... I want to solder a wire in the internal potentiometer in order to get the position feedback, wich I will read using an analog input. With that, I intend to build a robotic arm that can learn movements with me moving it with my hands...

Something like this (1st video):

My doubt is: How did she manage to move the servo while it was powered? (you may have already answered this question) The servo that I'm willing to use is other (original MG996r and MG90S)...

I was looking for the answer so I could buy all the servos knowing that they would work as I wanted them to.

Thank you!
