Vertical Servo Question

Hi, i'm have a bit of problem with the vertical motion of my servo.i am using an DAGU Pan and Tilt Kit with mini Servos, i have the horizontal working fine and have it tracking me around the room with the camera and everything works apart from when i try and get it to track something vertical. it kind of nodes up and down like it's fighting it's self then just goes all the way up or all the way down and stays there till i move it using one of the other controls. i've tried adjusting the servo speed, the red lines, inverting the controls, plugging it into a different port and even new batteries but with no luck. the servo (Pan and Tilt Kit) works perfectly with all the other control's but not with the face, colour and motion tracking.
please can someone help?

Usually when it nods away, that means the Invert option needs to be set for that one servo.

On a side note... Your post has made me very happy:) ... I noticed your filename is "Day 1". That tells me you have already been able to achieve so much in one day. I'm excited to see how quick people embrace EZ-Robot. Makes me smile!

Yep it's really easy to pick up. I'm not a programmer or anything like that. if I need to learn something I just watch your videos. Plus The ARC is really intuitive.
