EzAng, you have to use servos that have positional feedback in order to have position feedback.

ok, I only have  MG996R 55g Metal Gear Torque Digital servo Motors and Ez-robot  servos HDD

I was thinking, maybe you can add the PCA9685 for 16 servos module to you Compatible Robot Hardware

works great with ARC and the Arduino (your firmware I modified)
