SG-5010 don't move correctly

I am using this servo to move a gripper up and down, it was working normaly until now. The servo is shaking and trembling a lot, bot it just don't move correctly. I cannot understand why did this thing happened, because I was using it normaly until now. Can somebkdy help me?

Your power supply is broken. Show a picture of your setup.

Servo shaking and trembling is a clear sign of an inadequate servo power supply, but can also be due to a missing ground connection.

Plan on a servo power supply of 4.8 to 6V, at 1 Ampere per servo, minimum. Don't forget to connect the grounds.

the battery that I was using was getting discharged, it can be something like this, I am charging it now, when it is charged, I will update you, thanks! Also, the other servo and components were all working normally

It can be my battery that wass getting discharged, thank you for the advice!


I changed the battery but it is still shaking

Is the battery you are using the original, recommended type of battery?

A servo constantly draws current even when you're not actively changing its angle of rotation (because it has to hold the last angle of rotation you sent it, especially in a car type application, such as driving straight), so that's a very good possibility.

yes

Can you use a constant, mains-powered supply for your project? This is to evaluate the battery's ability to supply the needed current.
