Servo Control Voltage

I dont have a scope to verify this but would I be correct in assuming that the servo control voltage going to the servo is 3.3 volts on any particular digital port that a servo is connected to on an EZ Controller? The power to the servo would be the battery voltage that the EZ Controller is powered up from which is typically 7.2 Volts? Thanks...

question

Ez-B And Arduino Shield

After upgrading and swapping to the newer EZ-B board, it would be a shame not to use it with another robot. any consideration to building an Arduino Shield to accommodate the EZ-B? It would be overkill to add an EZ-B to an Arduino, but the potential would open up a wider market and audience. Perhaps the addition of an Arduino Library as well?...
