I have been able to get the Arduino Uno to communicate and operate a micro Servo. I would like to end up using 3 Servos for this project and was told that using a Keyes-CNC would work. The Arduino plugs right into the board.
I would like to once again test run a single servo before attempting to go with all 3 right way, The board has a 4 wire plug in for the servo, how would I hook up a 3 wire servo?
What port location would I use? OR even better if somebody has a test program for the CNC Board and Arduino.
Thank you in advance, and my apologies if you need clarification
RC Servos don't go with CNC
OK thank you. What board would you recommend to run Servos? Thank you.

just use some wires.
Assuming this wasn't sarcasm, I could run the servos directly from my Arduino Uno?
The servos would be used to indicate current temperature and fuel levels so it would be changing/moving much during its use.
Arduino -> servo plug
D..something --> Signal (orange/WHite/whatever, let's cal it left wire)
+5V --> red (middel wire)
GND --> black wire (right wire)
Use Servo example from Arduino, Servo - Arduino Reference
Use a 5V external power supply for servos, connect GND to Arduino GND.
Use google.
