Camera With Servo

I tried changing some options, and even setting the limit (50-90) to how far it would move, but still does the same...

I'm getting ready to build my first robot, trying to make sure I get everything right, and I need to know what I can do with the Heavy Duty server, aka how much weight can I put on that thing as a main drive unit of an small (alittle over knee high) R2 unit?

I am doing a Final Year Project. I was assigned to give ezrobot the moves. I have discovered all the ezrobots that you have, such as the JD, Six & Roli. I have even seen in one of your videos that a young boy combined the bodies of JD & Roli into one robot. With that inspiration in mind, I am thinking of combining the legs from the...
