Hi All.
I understand that this servo does best with 6V. http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__8496__Turnigy_S8166M_Servo_154g_33kg_21sec.html
Can I simply connect the + and - wires from another power source to the servo, and connect the white wire to the EZ-b, or is something more complicated (like a voltage booster) needed?
thanks in advance,
Frank

What I did was cut in to the supply to the EZB, fitted a 6V regulator, made up a board for +6V and Ground. Then had the white to the EZB and the red & black to the 6V board.
If I connect 2 ground wires together (in a Y shape), and send one end to the servo, one end to the external 6V power supply and one end to the EZ-b, will that do the trick?

I think you can just link the grounds of all supplies together, so a short jumper from batter 1 ground to battery 2 ground (await confirmation, I'm not completely sure on that).
thanks again,
Frank
It sounds like the one ground will work, if I'm interpreting things correctly.
